COUNT DRACULA (1977). In my opinion, the most faithful version of the Bram Stoker novel, although there are differences (Arthur and Quincy are merged into one person and Mina/Lucy are sisters instead of friends) and there are occasional overly stodgy moments. But all quibbling aside, the BBC deserves kudos for taking what is a very long, involved story (probably, the only way to really do it justice would be multiple entries like LORD OF THE RINGS) and doing a decent job. Louis Jourdan is almost too refined to do the Count justice, but some great moments involving him, particularly his mode of travel while at the castle.
Supporting cast very good with Frank Finlay standing out as Van Helsing, Judi Bowker very appealing as Mina and Susan Penhaligon runs with the role of Lucy and let's not forget the truly creepy moments involving Dracula's brides
