* Lucy's death. She may be a self-absorbed, narcissistic party girl who thinks everyone wants something, but she's completely broken when she learns that the cremation robbed her beauty, the very beauty she gave up her humanity to preserve.

** The way Zoe words it makes it even more tragic. Dracula's aversion to the cross isn't simply something he got overnight. Rather, it started out as a small embodiment of his shame, and stretched over the course of ''centuries'', has festered into an ''anxiety'' of acknowledging his dark past.

** What's more, we have the Grand Duchess who not only dies at Dracula's hands, but [[MissingMom lost her mother]] on the night she previously met Dracula on her 18th birthday. She may have fond memories of Dracula as a young woman, but one can't refute it was stained with the tragic loss of her mother.

* In "Rules of the Beast", Johnathan dies as a vampire before he and Mina could be properly married. In just about every other adaption, one of them is always cured and the two can at least [[EarnYourHappyEnding have their happily ever after]] and move on with their lives as a [[HappilyMarried married couple]]. But in this version, Mina will have to [[BittersweetEnding move on with her life alone]] essentially.

** What's more, it took her turning into a cremated vampire (and getting killed) to see that, despite her belief everyone is SecretlySelfish and wants something, ''Seward unconditionally loved her''.

In Hammer movie Jonathan and Mina weren't even couple, Mina was wife of Arthur Holmwood and they remained a happy couple after events of the movie. Also since in this version Mina and Jonathan never married, she can't move one with her life as a "widow", obviously.
