Oh. Jack Palance is trying his best to give off Chistopher Lee vibes in his reading the letter.

I forget when exactly I heard it, but once I heard that this little tv movie is the most accurate to the book version of Dracula. SO I guess I'll find out if that's true or someone was pulling my leg at a party.

Dang it. Someone adapt Dracula's Guest! Figure a way to wedge that short story about Dracula telling a female vampire in a mausoleum, "HEY! NO! This one is mine! You can';t have Harker!" Before he ever gets to the castle.

Palance is weird, but he is by far the most normal seeming man to play Dracula. He's just a fancy old noble. Not a weird creepy who only stares at your neck while licking his lips.

Carfax Abbey isn't real. But the place that it's probably a stand in for is a very fitting looking place for Dracula.

Maybe Dracula is just a guy who created the perfect potting soil. He has to take the recipe and samples to England with him to win a rose cultivation competition.

That was the shortest voyage of the Demeter segment ever.
Well shortest that didn't just skip it entirely.

After so many movies I'm starting to question if it was all day for night shooting, or if maybe from the 1930s to the mid 1980s the sky was just a really dark blue at night.

Oh so we are just forgoing the subtext of the neck bite and making out full on the lips before sexy Dracula times.
. . . Oh wait no he remeembered the blood sucking.

"What is happening to her!?"
"Drink?"
"Oh yes of course that sounds smashing."

I would like to add that #Palance played the definitive Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, in the only production that doesn't get the characters backwards. In the book, Mr. Hyde is the handsome, suave, sadistic murderer, while Dr. Jekyll is the ugly, socially awkward but gentle soul.
