Dracula poster

Movies that feel likeDracula (1931)

A British estate agent travels to Transylvania to meet with the mysterious Count Dracula, who is interested in leasing a London castle. After Dracula enslaves and drives the agent to insanity, the pair return to London together, where Dracula, a secret bloodsucker, begins preying on socialites.

If you loved Dracula, the closest films we have are The Mummy (1932), The Phantom of the Opera (1925) and Dracula (1958). All three share Dracula's dread and unsettling feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is White Zombie (1932).
