Summary: DVD - Dracula Dead And Loving It
Comment: This was a quick and smooth transaction. I will recommend the seller. As far as the movie goes, it is awesome. Leslie Nielsen is hilarious as Dracula. Overall a very fun movie.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Dreadful
Comment: This film is the mirror image/evil twin of the clasic, inspired, brilliant "Young Frankenstein" - deadly unfunny and dull, with Leslie Nielsen completely miscast. I laughed one time during the entire film. A sad latter-day film by the brilliant Mel Brooks, and a far cry from "Young Frankenstein", "Blazing Saddles", "History of the World Part I" and "High Anxiety". Avoid at all costs.

Summary: tad dissapointing
Comment: My family had high hopes after watching commercials for this movie and we enjoy spoofs but frankly we were dissapointed. There were some really funny scenes but overall we just didn't find it that funny.

Summary: Laughing and loving it
Comment: Oh for me this is the best movie from Leslie N. I dont know why i love it so much, i think its more of the Renfield the assistant or Dracula's accent. hahaha Anyway this dvd comes with subtitles in english, spanish and french. Its a must see!!

Summary: Dead on Arrival
Comment: How can the other 94 reviews on this site give this movie an average of 4 stars?!! At best, it is a two star movie experience and that is being very generous. Dead and Loving It only rates the second star because it is a rather good looking movie and it has a good cast. What it doesn't have is many funny jokes. That Mel Brooks wrote and directed this is hard to believe and it is far down on the list of his best work. Someone here compared this favorably to his (and Gene Wilder's) "Young Frankenstein." They must have been insane. "Young Frankenstein" is possibly the best of all the Mel Brooks comedies, while this is close to the worst. Please note this is from someone who is a fan of both Mr. Brooks and Mr. Nielsen and also a lover of vampire movies. It simply is not very good.
