    Jack Palance: Awful
    Frank Langella: Not as awful, o.k. supporting cast, lame ending.

    Not like there's a history of great Dracula movies. In the US, it was serialized on PBS back in the day starring Louis Jordan. *That* was a great series.

    True about the BBC. PBS rebroadcast a lot of BBC materials.

    Love at first bite.... nah. Though I seem to remember a line about black chickens in that one that was pretty funny, and 'you like to have your ankles licked'
