Richard Roxburgh and Kate Beckinsale in Van Helsing (2004)
The best part about this scene wasn’t just that Dracula didn’t have a reflection. She was at a ball with a few hundred other people attending it, and during this dance, there were dozens of other couples also dancing alongside Anna and Dracula. The scene showed that everyone at that ball was a vampire, not just Dracula. And she was the single only human there. It’s so subtly threatening to be surrounded by bloodthirsty killers all dressed to the nines, masked and pretty. And it was such an ingenious way of telling that part of the story, I adore this movie so much.
Yeah, that one shot with the mirror showed so much in such a small amount of time.

I’m sure this is some kind of sin.

This is the exact same thing as the Unholy Masquerade scene in What We Do In The Shadows, when the camera pans over a mirror in a room full of people to reveal that only the lone human in the room and this one zombie actually have reflections— only somehow it has exact opposite vibes.

Me reading Tumblr’s posts about Lucy and polycules: Haha. Yes. Very nice.
Me suddenly remembering the comment Van Helsing makes leaving lucy’s funeral about him and all the suiters being married to her since they gave her blood while trying to save her:
NOICE.
I can’t wait to see Tumblr’s reaction when THAT entry drops! ;)
Van Helsing upon meeting yet another man deeply in love with and willing to open his veins for Lucy Westenra:
