Dracula's Daughter is a Universal Horror film from 1936, directed by Lambert Hillyer. It was the first sequel to the Bela Lugosi vehicle Dracula. Lugosi also appeared on some promotional stills, but he isn't featured in the actual film.The film starts where the last one left off. Two constables stumble upon the corpses of Renfield and Count Dracula in Carfax Abbey's cellar. There they also meet Professor Von Helsing (Edward Van Sloan), who tells them what has happened. Baffled by his crazy story, they call Scotland Yard for help. Threatened with either execution or the madhouse, Von Helsing sends for an former student of his, psychiatrist Dr. Jeffrey Garth (Otto Kruger), to help him clear himself.At the same time, Countess Marya Zaleska (Gloria Holden), the title character, steals Dracula's body and burns it on a funeral pyre, hoping to be freed from his vampiric influences so that she can begin life as a normal woman. After this fails, she turns her attention to Dr. Garth, hoping that psychology is the way, despite the warnings of her servant Sandor (Irving Pichel). When this too fails, the Countess abducts Garth's fiancée Janet (Marguerite Churchill) and takes her to Transylvania, hoping to lure the psychiatrist there and turn him into her vampire companion.The producers did their best to tone it down, but the film still has some Les Yayness evident.Was followed by Son of Dracula in 1943. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Dracula's Daughter / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The opening minutes and subsequent trial of Von Helsing, with regards to the events of the previous movie. His story sounds insane, there's no actual evidence to back it up (and Marya destroys what evidence there might've been anyway), and the police were never involved in the preceding events. To an outside observer, it looks less like Von Helsing rid the world of a force of evil and more like he broke in and murdered two men. Naturally, he's arrested and put on trial for it. | |

The Renfield | |
| Dracula's Daughter / int_3fb4b1cb | comment |
The Renfield: Trope played with and ultimately subverted, in the character of Sandor. While he occupies the traditional role of a Renfield, as the mortal daytime-capable servant to the titular vampire, he is a far cry from the "poor, harmless imbecile" who was his predecessor, being sane (or at least calculating), ruthless, and cunning. Also, far from being a slave of the vampire's influence, he actually and ironically exerts a terrible moral influence on the vampire, undermining Marya's efforts at reform and enabling all her worst, addictive impulses. Small wonder that she is less than keen to reward him for such "services" (leading to the final irony: the Renfield actually becomes the vampire slayer, albeit for totally selfish and petty reasons). | |

Villain Has a Point: When Marya tries to savor what she believes to be her first moments "cured" of her vampire heritage by playing piano, Sandor keeps telling her throughout the piece that she's still a vampire. It's a hard pill to swallow for Marya, but ultimately, vampirism isn't always something you can cure, and Sandor knows it. | |

Novelization | |
| Dracula's Daughter / int_c54d550d | comment |
Novelization: A very good one, by "Carl Dreadstone". It have more implications from Zaleska's story, as legends about "Dracula and the woman he created", or another origin as Dracula attacked a pregnant woman, and the baby, a girl born half vampire, half human. Also about the lesbic scene, a interesting analysis by Garth about Countess Zaleska's paintings, revealing a psychological trauma with a man in her past, probably her father and the characters in general got more development. Are an expand moments at the climax, as Scotland Yard using proves that help to track the Countess, a conflict of her with villagers (showing her vampire powers). At the climax, in Janet's POV in Castle Dracula, after being captive by Marya, there are a nightmarish and disturbing visions, as a stench of rancid blood and earth, the Countess herself awakening from earth, and describing her more like a corpse, full of earth, with the falling jaw and a lifeless expression of hunger, in contrast with the beautiful human-like face she showed in London. At the ending, after Zaleska's death, Von Helsing tells that "all souls are beautiful to God's eyes". However, it's more ambiguous, as Janet has psychological sequels and trauma with the Countess. | |

Flanderization: In the first film, Van/Von Helsing only told everyone that Dracula was a vampire when the circumstances left no other explanation, and acknowledged that the things he knew about the supernatural were things the world was better off not knowing. In this movie, he apparently just expects everyone to believe him about vampires. | |

Jerkass: Sandor. Poor Marya was only trying to cure her vampirism or at least fight it so she could start over, but Sandor kept manipulating her to embrace it. And all so he could have immortality. | |

Lesbian Vampire | |
| Dracula's Daughter / int_f909b185 | comment |
Lesbian Vampire: Probably the original cinematic example, but in a more subtextual sense. There's an obvious sexual subtext to the scene where Marya is telling Lili to take her blouse off and pull the slip off her shoulders; Gloria Holden's lustful expression is what really sells it. This is again hinted at when Marya lowers herself over an unconscious Janet near the end, with a hungry look on her face again. | |

I Do Not Drink Wine | |
| Dracula's Daughter / int_f9e4739d | comment |
I Do Not Drink Wine: Countess Marya also never drinks wine, giving the same line as in the 1931 film. But tea is no problem. | |

Answer Cut: Jeffrey wonders what could have made the puncture wounds in a victim's neck, and the film cuts to a maid answering "Countess Zaleska!" See Inadvertent Entrance Cue, below. | |
