They have an enormous impact on the tone of that opening prologue sequence, because they reinforce the fact that it's a heightened, stylized, romanticized world.

Their replacement with modern, blocky, white, player-generated subtitles has a noticeable impact on the sequence, in the opinion of many of the film's fans.

It's true, they don't run throughout the film, but it's important to note that it's more than just a subtitle or two lasting for a couple of seconds.
And beyond that, it's not *just* the subtitle font- as Geoff D has pointed out again and again, the entire opening prologue is scanned from a lower-generation source for the original UHD (likely a "textless" InterPositive meant for overseas distributors to add their own subtitles to) vs. the original negative here. That sequence looks significantly better on this new UHD, so it's not just "a few seconds" or only about the font itself.

EDIT: I mean, look at the drastic difference in image quality here from that opening prologue: https://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?a=1&x...3&l=1&i=2&go=1

Yep, very true, I did mention that in other posts. That question was just specifically about the subtitles and their fonts in the opening sequence, but I didn't mean to make it sound like that's the only improvement, the use of the OCN for that sequence also makes the new disc superior.

Temper your expectations regarding "Love Song for a Vampire", the source for the video is SD quality.

Any chance the 30th anniversary edition will come out in regular (non-steelbook) version down the road?

I don't know if I like this movie or if I don't? I used to despise it. However, these days, I kind of understand the weirdness. The only actor I didn't care for was Hannibal Lector. Should have dialed down that campiness. Much better in Lambs.

From what I remember the over-the-top performances were purposefully channeling Hammer horror type films of the past to add a touch of campiness.

Wow the opening sequence truly is sharper looking on this disc than it did on the first 4K UHD.

Glad I double dipped (even though I got the previous 4K for free through Sony's rewards system, lol)

Seems unlikely, since there's already a normal edition on the market. They heavily promoted these steelbooks ad limited editions, I think.

This isn't like Gattaca, where the steelbook was followed by a plastic case version, because there wasn't one out there before then.

I agree, I think Hopkins dialed his performance up to 15 on a scale of 1-10 on purpose, to fit the tone Coppola was going for.

Having seen the music video on the 4K disc, despite being SD quality, its a noticeable improvement over what's on YouTube, IMO.

Except Hammer never did that. Peter Cushing's Van Helsing is played totally straight.

This film is doing it's own thing (well, apart from ripping off Dan Curtis). Which is fine, and I love it for that.

IDK in terms of over the top, its more bombastic than Hammer Horror, the classic Universal Monster movies & the 1979 Dracula movie with Frank Langella, but doesn't even sniff near absolute berserker levels of over the top like Blood for Dracula, so its definitely somewhere in the middle of that diagram.
