"Benicio Del Toro has claimed that the 1931 movie adaptation of Dracula is better than Twilight. The actor also told Parade that he fulfilled a life-long horror ambition when taking on the lead role in the new remake of The Wolfman. Del Toro said: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve always been a fan of horror movies, like the ones with Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi. We wanted to pay homage to them. As a kid, I wasn&amp;#039;t watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. &amp;quot;My earliest recollection of wanting to be an actor was watching Lon Chaney Jr. play the Wolfman. I really wanted to have those big teeth. I finally got the chance.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;I think Frankenstein might be one of the classics of all time. I love Dracula, the Bela Lugosi movie. I think if the original Dracula came out now in colour, it would take any of these movies, like Twilight, to pieces. &amp;quot;There was no CGI, but you didn&amp;#039;t need it. We kind of take that classic approach in our film, even though we did use computer effects when I transformed into the Wolfman.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
