Episode 44: Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Wolfman (2010), and The Beast Must Die In this episode of Vox Macabre, Kit Mann delves into three legendary films that explore the darker sides of supernatural creatures. First up is Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992), directed by Francis Ford Coppola, where we explore how the film balances gothic romance and horror with an iconic performance from Gary Oldman as Count Dracula. We’ll dive into the rich visual style, Oldman’s transformative portrayal, and the film's unique use of practical effects. Next, we review the 2010 remake of The Wolfman, starring Benicio del Toro and Anthony Hopkins. This modern update of the 1941 classic features updated effects, a tragic storyline, and a compelling father-son dynamic. Kit discusses the tension between practical makeup and CGI, and how this version tries to honor the original while bringing the werewolf myth into a new era. Finally, Kit examines the 1974 cult classic The Beast Must Die, a film that blends mystery and horror in a werewolf whodunit. The movie’s interactive "werewolf break" gives audiences a chance to guess who the werewolf is, adding a unique layer of tension to this forgotten gem of the genre. We also respond to listener questions, including discussions about slow-burn horror films, humor in horror, and the scariest cryptids to feature in a movie. Rounding out the episode is a new Campfire Tales segment, featuring a chilling story about a man who wrote his name on a dollar bill in 1998. Ten years later, the same bill returned to him in a strange twist of fate. But it’s what happens another decade later, after he’s moved a thousand miles away, that turns this eerie coincidence into something much more unsettling.Thanks for listening to Vox Macabre!
