It's always Dracula isn't it? Never Camilla - Sheridan Le Fanu's estate must be really hacked off by this stage!

looks bloody good. Fangs for the post

I have read the stakes are pretty high for Moffat and Gattiss all right...

Agent Coulson

I'll be honest, that looks kinda rubbish. Post "season 1 of Sherlock" Moffat has been really poor IMO, and don't see anything to change that from the trailer

"I'm undead, I'm not unreasonable..."

Think I can see the League of Gentlemen style humour having a lot of influence in this.

Agent Coulson

Starts tomorrow then Thursday and finishes Friday.

Harry Palmr

That was fun! Gatiss was definitely channeling an American Werewolf in London for the mix of humour and splattery horror. Roll on tomorrow.

Mr E

Yeah that was brilliant. Some nice surprises and twists too. Can't wait for the next part.

I was simultaneously cringing, cowering, and disgusted. I don't know what to think, but I couldn't switch it off.

drunkmonkey

Forgot this was starting anyway to catch today's one now...

brick tamland

Didnt think it was great to be honest. Lacking some of the humour you normally expect from Gatiss and Mofitt. It looked well but fell a bit flat.

Harry Palmr

Loads of mordant humour, esp the Sister.

TheIrishGrover

Christ. I got about 15 or 20 mins in (I wasn't really paying attention). As soon as Dracula appeared I was expecting him to try to sell me some meerkat insurance. Jesus that was bad..... I think I turned off when yer man was having the dream....

OldRio

I really wanted that to be good. It wasn't. Dreadful.

I think Sister Agatha is in the wrong profession

not terrible, but it fairly struggled to find a tone

gatiss is very hamfisted at crowbarring his revisionist agenda in imo, and it really doesnt do him any credit to rearrange an existing classic to do so.

he should have the courage of his convictions and work on original concepts.

I didn't like how unrealistic the nuns were and how the count was outwitted easily enough. Some of the nun talk and behaviour was also out of character for any nun and more like something out of a porn movie at times.

I really disliked the little quips and sarcasm the count kept coming up with as it just doesn't seem reasonable to me that a Romanian nobleman from 15th century would come up with that in any possible sense.

Mostly a travesty, it started off ok but seemed to get worse as time went on. It might have worked to do a fresh take on it but went a very wrong direction.

A lot of people seem to have got the wrong end of the stick here.

One of the campest versions I have seen of Dracula in a while, with albeit some great fx. I truly enjoyed it.

Claes Bang was brilliantly camp and did it really well. Looking forward to the next 2 episodes.

They are taking some licence with plot swings and female Van Helsing etc, but so what?

I really enjoyed it.

I agree entirely, I thought it was a riot, Claes Bang is brilliant as is Dolly Wells.

Brilliant opener last night.. really looking forward to tonight.

Love Gothic horror

Or maybe they just have a different opinion to you.

I thought it was brilliant, brought me back to my childhood when being let stay up to watch one of the old Hammer Horror film was a real treat. It's the perfect blend of camp and horror, can't wait for episode 2.
