Dracula's a NARCISSIST! | Renfield

Me too. For me it’s the way he says it and the way he’s drinking his glass lol.

I would say the build up before he came here... knowing his temper and how dangerous he can be.. then now he is here controlling his anger while listening to Renfield's lie 😂😂😂 we imagine how FU things would go at this moment!

The role that Nick Cage was born to play - a film with a host of good actors, a funny script and fun for all the family ( over a certain age, that is)

[@magallanesagustin4952]

As silly as the movie is, this scene perfectly captures abusive and/or toxic relationships with the way Dracula plays victim and gaslights Renfield.

[@desertstar35]

3:38 Cage's face was gold! The confusion, the concern, wondering if Renfield had genuinely lost his mind. Priceless!

[@dezertfox3681]

*"I deserve..."* That right there is the essence of the true narcissist.

[@mrslasher1064]

That's not really true,there are some things that people are deserving of,if you are a good person then you do deserve love and appreciation,you deserve food,water,shelter and you have a right to privacy and sole ownership of your property,a narcissistic thinks they're deserving of things that aren't possible,they hold other people to those impossibly high standards but do not hold themselves under the same scrutiny...

I left my father because he was a monster and he used power against me when it came to personal hatred of lifestyles and getting his way into becoming a minister to stay on top. It gave him the power to condemn lifestyles to Hell and using that to confuse me into becoming more like him. Never again.

Nothing Drac says here is technically wrong,Robert Renfield originally went to his estate hoping to find some feeble old widower he could smooth talk into selling off his assets,however i'm pretty sure 200 years of servitude and torture have made them more than even all things considered...

[@JosieTyner-s7u]

The thing is, Dracula is truthful. There is no ambiguity in his need for power. He's a 15th century Wallachian warlord who rules by terror and fear. Renfield could opt out at any time but only by appealing to a One more powerful than D. He never does. Ambiguous, confused , hopeless people like Renfield rely on themselves when their best thinking got them where they are. Dracula is cruel, hateful, monstrous, but he has R.pegged absolutely spot on. He's a weakling who got lucky, them very unlucky.

[@colbyjames7255]

The accusation of being a Husk is what got to me in this scene. Because I've had a demon name me that over and over. I asked friends nearby soon after that incident if my name was Husk, and they laughed at me. I didn't think it was funny at all. Laughing and crying at the same time. Hadn't seen a movie in over 10 years.

Ghost Rider Abusing Younger Beast

[@Xman360z]

is a scene like this shot twice, once with the camera on Dracula, and once on Renfield, and they just splice them together? and if so, is each performance different depending if the actor knows if they're on camera or if they're in the dirty second?

[@MisterGraa]

I'm not sure about this movie but this "shot reverse shot" trick where they mix different takes together is very common. I personally find it unfortunate as well, it makes the performances feel disconnected and flat

Because that's what servants do.

[@kylekillgannon]

To be clear; Rendield was indeed irredeemable under Dracula's service. He did kill a lot of people.

[@Arguments_only]

why would that mean "irredeemable", if objective morality exists (it doesnt) then if he changes and wouldnt do anymore those things he would be redeemed. But since morality is subjective that is opinions, merely thinking it was moral, makes it moral.

[@kylekillgannon]
