I think there are really only three Dracula films ever worth mentioning: the '31 Lugosi film, Nosferatu, and Horror of Dracula.

To that list I would add Vampyr (1932), Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979), and Shadow of the Vampire (2000). And maybe Dracula (1979) - the one with Frank Langella, just for the creepy scene in the sewer.

Langella's performance is quite interesting - very different than any other. He is just so damn charming and cheerful.

The best version of Dracula is the 1977 BBC miniseries. The Lugosi film has become iconic but I have always found it quite terrible. Unfortunately Lugosi's ridiculous performance became associated with the character.

Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) was pretty good, although not great (Keanu Reeves as Harker? WTF?). It was very, very sexy. Winona Rider and Monica Bellucci kissing other girls!
