Dracula was a 2002 Italian television mini-series adapting the original novel Dracula written by Bram Stoker in 1897. The film is alternately known as Dracula's Curse, The Kiss of Dracula and its original Italian title, Il Bacio di Dracula. Set in modern day Budapest, director Roger Young provides a treatment that is satisfactorily faithful to the original story, albeit with a modernized approach.
