Masterpiece Theatre presents a stunning new dramatization of Bram Stoker's terrifying horror story. A young aristocrat with the world at his feet is about to marry the love of his life when he discovers he's inherited an horrific disease. But his desperation to cheat death could bring destruction to all those around him--including his new wife--as he becomes embroiled in a sinister cult and unleashes the evil force of the fatally charismatic Count Dracula.
With incredible CGI and effects, the film contrasts the beauty of Victorian England with the corrupted sex and dark horror of Dracula's world. An impressive cast includes Marc Warren (Band of Brothers) as Dracula, Sophia Myles (Doctor Who), and David Suchet (Poirot).
