Dracula 1979

Frank Langella as Dracula; 1979 film.

One of my favorite versions of the story is the 1979 film starring Frank Langella, Laurence Olivier, & Donald Pleasence.

Universal Classic Monsters - 30 Film Set

Watched the entire Hammer Horror: Dracula series last night with Christopher Lee. First ones are good but all down hill by the time A.D. and Satanic Rites rolls around (even though Peter Cushing is back in the last two films).

3 movies with 3 different guys named Paul in a row (Grave, Blood and Scars)... I'm glad PAUL died in "Scars"... I was sick of hearing the name Paul by the end of the 3 films. It's not the same Paul.. so why not pick a different name for the other two named Paul?

2 different films with a 2 different servants named Klove (Prince of Darkness and Scars). and 2 different films with 2 different girls named Lucy (Horror and Blood).

I'm tired of of Klove, Lucy and Paul... especially Paul. I don't think I'll ever watch this series as back to back films again over it. Hahaha

Horror of Dracula (1958)
Dracula: Prince of Darkness (1966)
Dracula Has Risen from the Grave (1968)
Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970)
Scars of Dracula (1970)
Dracula A.D. 1972 (1972)
The Satanic Rites of Dracula (1973)

Lee played Dracula the most times of all actors that played the character - 10 times total. -- Above are the 7 Hammer Horror Dracula's he's played in... the other 3 films are: Count Dracula (1970), One More Time (1970) and Dracula père et fils (1976).

May Movies

I have seen this one before and it's so good to me that I had to have it

to re-watch over and over. This one deals with a Satanic Necromancer.

Never seen the 2 films (Ironclad 1 & 2) but the previews looks great!

Recommended with Black Death (and I know it's a good movie).

A film I've been recommended by friends and Amazon.

I decided to heck with it, I'll get it and see... previews look really good.

Season of the Witch is a pretty good movie - I was going to get a single copy when I

saw this set. I've heard Wolves is a really good werewolf movie (I've been wanting to

see it) and I think I might like the I, Frankenstein too.

Yes I like this film - been a long while since I've seen it.

Now I'll be able to watch it over and over.

I *think* I saw this one already - a while back. If it's the movie I'm

thinking of then it's a pretty good movie - different.

Finally!! The original film is SUPER good!!

I've seen this, it's an excellent "witch" film - done in good taste with a great story.

One I would like to watch again and again.

The Book

Frankenstein, Dracula, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - All in one thick paperback for $7.77. People are bragging about this one - so I got it. I'll know if it's worth the bragging soon. LOL.

November Movies

Really good film.

Vampires

It took Alucard well over a week in New York (I tracked him floating around in a mail truck in NY, NY) then landed in Memphis - then here today!! -- I'm guessing he was in need of blood lol... but I'm happy with the way he looks on the wall! -- I love this look Chaney & Chaney!! I think I 'll keep it this way... Love it too much!
