Count Dracula

Starring: Lee, Christopher and Lom, Herbert

Product Description

In 1970, cult director Jess Franco and screen legend Christopher Lee collaborated on what they promised would be the most faithful adaptation of Bram Stoker's novel ever filmed. From its remarkable performances - including Lee as the Count, Herbert Lom (MARK OF THE DEVIL) as Van Helsing, Soledad Miranda (VAMPYROS LESBOS) as Lucy, Maria Rohm (VENUS IN FURS) as Mina, and authentic madman Klaus Kinski as Renfield - to its lush locations and atmosphere of sinister sensuality, it remains perhaps the most spellbinding version of Dracula in movie history. Fred Williams (SHE KILLED IN ECSTASY) and Paul Muller (NIGHTMARE CASTLE) co-star in this "thrilling" (Twins Of Evil) and "fascinating" (Arrow In The Head) horror classic, now fully restored, loaded with all-new Bonus Features, and re-mastered in high-definition for the first time ever.

For the dead travel fast

Jonathan Harker (Bosco Hogan) is sent by his boss to close a real estate deal. Naturally, he had no idea about the history of the area or the person he was to seal the deal with. The locals do a lot of crossing themselves, but do not inform Jonathan what he is in for. Somehow, Jonathan is starting to suspect there is more to Count Dracula (Louis Jourdan) than he was told. With 150 minutes, they had more time to do it correctly. As with any retelling, some things were added and others things are taken out. At times, it feels long and slow, but every word becomes useful later. There is more of the novel, especially toward the end. They had time for dialogue from other movies as Nosferatu. There are a lot of popular actors from that time, including Judi Bowker, a trained ballerina who performed in stage plays such as "Mist - After Dracula." Of course, Louis Jourdan was just being himself.
