I need confirmation on something !


I seem to recall that when I watched this on VHS back in the late 90's there was a part where when Dracula is staked by Van Helsing there's a close up of Dracula's face and blood begins to come out of his mouth, and yet it's not on the DVD. I could be wrong! but I seem remember with this version.

Thanks

That's an alternate take used for the U.K. theatrical release print. The bloody scenes were included on the VHS edition. The DVD has the blood-less staking scenes of both Lucy and Dracula.

That sceen is also included on the US laserdisc version. I just watched it five minutes ago! =)

I just saw the version on Plex and it included the close-up of Drac's face with blood coming out of his mouth (it's the 1 hour, 38-minute rendition).
