As literature, the general opinion is that the novel Dracula is moderate. As fiction story...it depends how every reader understand it. It is a mental matter, I think.

My view is the opposite: Conrad's book is impressive while Coppola's film is over-the-top. There are some things notable in the film, such as the books on Kurtz's cupboard, and the same can be said for Dracula (such as Dracula's short response to the three female vampires regarding love), but if one wants more, consider Conrad's work. For the Gothic, there's Hawthorne and a few others.
