We’ve been circling this one for a while. Having watched Ed Wood, Plan 9 From Outer Space, and Horror of Dracula, it is finally time to look at the role that both defined and trapped Bela Lugosi: Dracula. Our first Universal horror film and one of the best known, we took a look at this classic retelling of Bram Stoker’s novel. After watching the movie, we talked about the careers of many of the actors, the legacy of Universal horror films and – as always – a bunch of other stuff.
Up next, we stick with classic horror and watch The Phantom of the Opera!
