"Dracula: Dead and loving it" (Dracula: Dead and Loving It) — a Comedy film directed by Mel Brooks, a spoof of the novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker and the various screen versions of this book (in particular, the Oscar-winning picture "Dracula Bram Stoker" and the classic "Dracula," 1931).

The film is a kind of "Easter egg" – after the end of the final credits in the dark, heard a quiet laugh of count Dracula and he utters the last word, as if winning a duel in Director Mel Brooks, who played the role of van Helsing.

The film received negative reviews from critics, but received the love of the audience (especially the Russian-speaking audience). Overall, this is a pretty good compilation of images and ideas about cinematic vampires that appeared in mass culture before the movie, so watch it not only interesting and fun, but also quite informative for all those interested in this subject.

Phenomena in artwork: A vampire

Dracula in this movie is a collective image of vampires appearing in popular culture and especially in films of the twentieth century. He has all the attributes of the classic vampire has fangs, drinks blood from the neck of the victims, and transforms into a bat, is not reflected in the mirror, passes through the web, afraid of garlic, sleeps in a coffin, can possess people's minds. As the hero Bela Lugosi, the local Dracula always goes in a frock coat and cloak, like the wings of a bat. His hairstyle similar to the hairstyle of Dracula from "Dracula Bram Stoker", released three years earlier, is a kind of headdress. The similarity with this film is also seen in the shadows, which in the presence of Dracula begin to live your life.

The second Lucy becomes a vampire, killed the count. The film does not explain exactly how she became a vampire: apparently, no further action from Dracula was not required, he just sucked her blood.

To kill a vampire you must drive a stake through his heart (while all the drunk vampire blood spills from his body and splash the killer). Also vampire could be killed by sunlight – so is killed by Dracula himself, turning to ash under the influence of the morning sun.
