“Villains used to always die in the end. Even the monsters. Frankenstei...” — Benicio Del Toro Quote

“Villains used to always die in the end. Even the monsters. Frankenstein, Dracula - you'd kill them with a stake. Now the nightmare guy comes back.”

“Hopefully, I can play both sides of the fence. That's probably what winning the Oscar gives me, the chance to do something with a studio and do other things that I really want to do.”

“There are a lot of good actresses out there.”

“When I started writing about vampires, I swore that I wouldn't touch the 'Dracula' legend because it's been done too many times.”

“I've always been a Dracula/vampire aficionado, being half-Romanian myself. Dracula has always been close to my heart - in fact, I have a first edition of Bram Stoker's book. I read it over and over again as a young kid.”

“The first film I can remember seeing on TV was 'The Brides of Dracula.' I was instantly hooked.”
