4.0 out of 5 stars
A must..... Christopher Lee's legacy. Even as a vampire, he casts a shadow over every one., Nov 25 2008
This review is from: 4 Film Favorites Draculas (DVD)
The releases of box sets have driven down the price of vintage horror films. This Boxset is a must for all horror fans. Christopher Lee is in a class by himself. The exrtas are a bit thin and that is why I cannot give it 5 stars. You get the original Bram Stoker Story, a classic early 70s hippie Dracula flick (loved by the fans, hated by the critics) and two more generic Serial Dracula movies. The 1st two are also featuring Peter Cushing in the role of Van Helsing. The two others are carrying the Hammer films trademarks and are lot of fun to watch, but they do not bring anything to the Lee's legacy. Scars of Dracula is far better and often overlooked. On two of the movies, the infamous Johnny Alucard is beefing up the cast.
I wonder why nobody has released all Lee's 7 Dracula movies (even if the Prince of Darkness title is not worth watching)
