Il grande successo cinematografico arriva con "Dracula" di Tod Browning (1931), il ruolo doveva essere ricoperto da Lon Chaney che però muore qualche mese prima dell'inizio delle riprese, Browning affida dunque la parte del Conte a Bela Lugosi in virtù del successo riscosso nella versione teatrale e grazie (soprattutto) alla sua decisiva intercessione epistolare nei confronti della vedova Stoker per cedere i diritti del romanzo alla Universal. Nel film Lugosi esordisce con la frase "I - am - Dracu - la": la sua voce ben impostata e l'accento aristocratico, rendono evidente a tutti che il cinema americano ha trovato finalmente un cattivo di mefistofelica grandezza. Durante gli anni '30 e i primi anni '40 Lugosi raccoglie insieme con Boris Karloff l'eredità del grande Lon Chaney. Sfortunatamente Lugosi accetta facilmante parti in film di bassa qualità e finisce presto per arrendersialla routine degli horror o a parodie diquesto genere, riservando il suo talento di interprete al teatro.

- With his aristocratic accent, distinctive profile, slicked dark hair, spidery fingers, mesmerizing eyes, and swirling black cape, Hungarian-born actor Bela Lugosi helped to create cinema's definitive Dracula, the vampire as sexual and charming as he is villainous. Born Béla Ferenc Dezsö Blask¢ in Lugos (the town from which he derived his stage name) near Transylvania, Lugosi came to the United States in late 1920 and, over the next few years, appeared in small film and theater parts. His break came with the title role in the play Dracula, which ran for 33 weeks on Broadway in 1927 and successfully toured the West Coast in 1928-29; this led to the 1931 Universal film, whose romantic settings and sexual undercurrents revolutionized the horror film genre and established Lugosi's place in Hollywood history.
- Lugosi, however, quickly became the victim of his own success. ... Refusing to be typecast, Lugosi aspired instead to the romantic leading roles he had performed on the Hungarian stage. ... Originally slated to play the monster, Lugosi disliked both the heavy makeup and the character's lack of dialogue, and so the part went to Boris Karloff, who soon surpassed Lugosi in salary as well as fame, becoming his lifelong rival. Even years later, when Universal again tried to exploit the public's hunger for horror films by teaming Karloff and Lugosi in such films as The Black Cat (1934), The Raven (1935), and The Body Snatchers (1945), Lugosi received second billing and played a decidedly supporting role to Karloff.

- Lugosi's second serial, released by Sol Lesser's Principal Pictures, holds the distinction of being the only time, on the serial or non-serial screen, that Bela played a romantic, two-fisted hero!

As the only serial hero with supernatural powers, Chandu clearly needed to be played by an out-of-the-ordinary actor, and Lugosi was the perfect choice. He really seemed to relish the chance to play a hero, throwing himself heart and soul into the goings on and making the serial memorable by his enthusiastic, energetic performance which combined his usual sinister air with a surprising friendliness and charisma that showed what a truly versatile actor Bela was. ...

- Lugosi was to be in a tour of Dracula in the British Isles that was to pay him very well, but the play became bankrupt due to mismanagement. This left Lugosi and his wife in England, with no means of support. So word came about an upcoming horror/comedy movie, a deal was set and Lugosi was cast.

- Horror Movie Stars : Bela Lugosi.
- Born in Lugos, Hungary, in 1882, as Bela Blasko (he later took his name from the place he was born) the actor began with a career in silent cinema, before turning to theatre. ...
- Bela Lugosi first came to the American public's attention in 1927, where he starred in the Broadway production of "Dracula", a role which he would be associated with throughout his life, and even after his death; he was that memorable in it. ... So Bela Lugosi became the first, big worldwide star of horror movies, a success with which Boris Karloff soon followed.
- If there is one singular reason to sit through Dracula, then his name must be Lugosi. With his rich accent, immaculate suit, smooth black hair and foreign features, Dracula was a role Lugosi really made his own. ... Dare I say that other actors (Christopher Lee exempted) have tried to copy Lugosi in their portrayal of the screen's bloodthirstiest vampire? (Yes, I mean you, Mr. ...
- However, Lugosi himself regarded his most famous role as both "a blessing and a curse". ... For Lugosi could never throw off the image of Dracula, and it hung over him for the rest of his life, as would a vampire bat. Perhaps Lugosi himself was, ironically, Dracula's biggest victim.
- Lugosi was offered the role of the Frankenstein monster for Universal's next hit. ... Lugosi wasn't out for the count, though (pun completely intentional). ... Rue Morgue is an atmospheric watch more than worthwhile through the deranged antics of Mr Lugosi. However, Bela was back soon after in White Zombie, an early tale of voodoo and zombies (not the latter day cannibal zombies we are used to seeing, however). ...
- Lugosi went on to star in Island of Lost Souls, the 1933 hit from the story by H. ... Although Lugosi had essentially a bit part as a "man-monster" called The Sayer of the Law, nonetheless he was memorable in the role. However, in 1934, Lugosi got the respect he deserved when teamed up with Karloff in The Black Cat, again loosely adapted from a Poe story. Considered by many horror fans to be the actor's best role, Lugosi does indeed display a number of emotions and remains a tragic hero in the film, which although vilified on release, now stands out as one of the best horror films of the 1930's. ...
