Since other commenters are talking about vampire movies and not limiting themselves specifically to Dracula pictures, allow me to recommend Near Dark (1987). https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093605/
I have to say that I was impressed by this article. Not only did Mattison get #1 correct, but every single Dracula that I was thinking, I’ll bet she missed ⸻, there it was. Buffy vs Dracula ? On the list. Nosferatu ? On the list. Well, if you’ve got Nosferatu do you have the remake? Of course. And Shadow of the Vampire ? What kind of fool do you think I am?
tl;dr: 1 is Bela Lugosi.
But sadly, Bela Lugosi's dead.
I'm not sure if it counts, but my favorite vampir-esque movie/show/whatever was Midnight Mass. It was such an interesting take on the core ideas.
Really good and unexpectedly so. I would not have bothered to watch it had I not seen Red Letter Media's review.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Except that assumes that Dracula is first declension, and it might as much be third declension which would make it Dracules.
Dracula isn't even Latin. It's Slavic declension. His father was Dracul (Dragon), from Emperor Sigismund's Order of the Dragon and he's son of Dracul - syn Dracula.
