I'm starting on a classic movie binge, and my first one was Dracula. Basically, this is the essential vampire flick. Before Bela Lugosi, vampires had little if any sex appeal. It wasn't cool to be a vampire. Lugosi made it cool with his accent and cape.
This film is dated and not scary. A rubber bat on a string is not scary. Then again, CGI isn't scary either. Minus the bat, this would be a bit more frightening. But the black and white rendering does make it creepy.
I don't know if any vampire movie could be scary. But Dracula is a classic, and I will not argue with the critics about its place in the cinematic canon.
