Everything from the Coen brothers

Chris Lee was a very scary Dracula. My favorite was actually Louis Jourdan in the three hour BBC/PBS version which was the very first to really stick to the book. Beautifully done.

I saw this^ during one of it's airings on PBS. And it was quite good. Though definitely took its time. I agree it is worth a look though for the Stoker fans.

Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)

Another version of Stoker's classic that I also recommend. This was also recently remastered, I believe, and released on 4k UHD.

Nosferatu (1922)

While not technically based on Stoker (for reasons of copyright), F.W. Murnau's silent version of the vampire legend is also good.

Beetlejuice (1998)

One of my favorite Tim Burton flicks. Dunno why exactly. It's just kinda quirky and fun though, I suppose. And has a way of growin on you (like the moss on Beetlejuice's face).

 

[ADU]

M*A*S*H (1970)

The original film about the 4077th mobile army surgical docs by Bob Altman, with Donald Sutherland, Elliott Gould, Sally Kellerman and Bob Duvall (as Major Frank Burns).
