Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary

Based On the book by Bram Stoker

Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary is a 2002 TV horror film directed by Guy Maddin, budgeted at $1.7 million and produced for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) as a dance film documenting a performance by the Royal Winnipeg Ballet adapting Bram Stoker's novel Dracula. Maddin elected to shoot the dance film in a fashion uncommon for such films, through close-ups and using jump cuts. Maddin also stayed close to the source material of Stoker's novel, emphasizing the xenophobia in the reactions of the main characters to Dracula (played by Zhang Wei-Qiang). Work on the film deepened but also ended Maddin's collaboration with Deco Dawson, who was credited as editor and associate director.
