Anyone that expects a one to one transition of the books, will feel cheated. However, the viewer that just keeps the general atmosphere of Paul van Loon's novels in mind and sits to enjoy a movie, not a book, will be thrilled. The movie breathes the original combination of humor and horror even though the story is utterly new and has little elements from previous stories, it is worth having the title of Griezelbus.
Especially the kid actors are fit for the job and Willem Nijholt as Reisleider and Count Vlapono is truly magnificent. The only thing I didn't like too much were the special effects. They seemed a little cheesy at times. Not bad, but cheap. But I doubt the target group will be bothered with that at all.
Fans of the genre and especially of Paul van Loon, it's a must see!

This is one of my absolute favourites. Horror, romance, drama, tragedy and even humour are combined in this excellent movie about the undead Count Dracula. Never was he more "human". The casting is one of the best which made this motion picture a success. And tell me, who of you did not fall in love with the handsome young Count with his chilling accent? ;-)
Go see it (again) to feel the shivers run down your spine, of horror as well as emotion.
