I agree. For me, Bela Lugosi is the one true Dracula. :-)
The video clip you posted looked to be from that series.
Could use men like that now.
One thing you have to admire about old Vlad; he sure knew how how to throw a party for the Ragheads.
Probably leads to a vast underground cavern full of coffins, trapped and closed up there centuries ago by villagers. Now these morons are going to open it up. Sounds like the beginning of a horror movie plot.
Just noticed in the movie poster in 23 that on the lower left it says “X Adults Only”. I have no idea why that’s on there. The movie is obviously a PG.
The Negromancer.
That sounds pretty much like the storyline of the movie I linked to.
Cool thanks =)
The networks have to use a lot of makeup on him.
There's a great tale about one of them, where the Muslims refused to remove their headgear, as it was "against their religion".
He nailed their turbans to their heads "To reinforce their piety".
SEE; A very religious man, obedient to the tenants of all faiths.
If we had a few like him in DC the country would be a lot better off.
Like wives who did not mend their husbands cuffs fast enough.
There seems to be a push to make him admirable when the truth was he was mad as a hatter.
Vlad Tepys was an historic personage and got his name “Vlad the Impaler” by impaling 14,000 captured Turks from a prevous battle on a hillside to discourage an another advancing Turk army. The usual depictions of this event are anatomically incorrect. The Turks were pulled over tree saplings by their legs, the sapling went up their butt and out their mouth. I know, too much detail, but it was effective and caused panic in the approaching Turks.
Brahm Stoker’s “Dracula” was a fusion of Vlad Tepys stories and those of Countess Helena Bathory who tortured to death several hundred local maidens hired for scullery work at Castle Bathory. Helena was known to bathe in their blood and, in mid Winter, allow their naked bodies to freeze solid in the courtyard to form a “sculpture garden”. She was eventually put under house arrest by her family and died naturally.
These graphic details are brought to you by the “Aristocrats Must Die” brigade.
