The "Dracula" movie game

[Tobias Mule]

This is something that a friend of my sister's introduced me to and I enjoy it very much. His theory is that any movie can be traced back to Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992).
I thought this game would be fantastic for this guild.

Here's the rules:

1. It has to be a movie that has been released to theaters or to DVD. No made-for-TV films, television series, or miniseries.
2. You're allowed to use IMDb to help make the link; but person involved must be credited for being in that film.
3. Whoever makes the chain has to come up with a new film.
--

The object of the game is to connect the given movie to Dracula (1992).
Only movies may be used to make the links.
If after three days no one has made the link with the film you gave, you must make the link yourself and then provide another film.
--

Here's an example of how the game works:

PersonA: Princess Bride

Person B:Cary Elwes was in both the Princess Bride and Dracula.
Son of Frankenstein

--
Here's the link to the main cast: Dracula

To start things off: The Lion King  

[BeHappyBeJoyful]

Oh my, this really takes some cross-referencing.

Moira Kelly, who provided voice for Adult Nala in The Lion King, has starred as Hetty Kelly / Oona O'Neill Chaplin in Chaplin (1992) with Anthony Hopkins as George Hayden, who also starred as Professor Abraham Van Helsing in Dracula.

Identity (2003).  

[Tobias Mule]

Let's see...

Rebecca De Mornay was in it. She was also in The Three Musketeers with Tim Curry. He was also in Rugrats Go Wild with Bruce Willis. Willis was also in Unbreakable with Samuel L. Jackson. Jackson was in the Star Wars films with Liam Neeson. Neeson starred in The Haunting with Catherine Zeta Jones. And she takes us to Anthony Hopkins in The Mask of Zorro. From him, to Dracula.

S'ok. My fault.

((- Louis Armstrong was in Hello Dolly. He was also in High Society with Frank Sinatra who supposedly paid for the funeral of Bela Lugosi))

-though I'm not even sure that kind of link would have been allowed anyway.

 

[Tobias Mule]

No. I'm afraid it wouldn't. The object of the game is to connect one movie to Dracula.
...
I should probably clarify that in the intro.  

[BeHappyBeJoyful]

Barbra Streisand, who starred in Hello Dolly, was in Meet the Fockers with Robert Di Niro. Robert Di Niro starred in Taxi Driver with Jodie Foster, who in turn starred with Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs, and Hopkins brings us to Dracula.

Young Sherlock Holmes (1985)  

[Tobias Mule]

Okay!

Nicholas Rowe, who played Sherlock Holmes, was also in Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels with Vinnie Jones. Jones was also in Snatch with Brad Pitt. Pitt takes us to Mr. and Mrs. Smith with Angelina Jolie. Jolie takes us to Wyona Rider in Girl Interrupted. Which takes us to Dracula.

The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)  

[BeHappyBeJoyful]

Danny Elfman, who provided Jack Skellington's singing voice in The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), is the score producer of Red Dragon, which Anthony Hopkins starred in as Dr. Hannibal Lecter. This brings us to Dracula.

The Importance of Being Earnest (2002)

The Wizard of Oz (1939)
