Vampires have come a long way from the putrid, re-animated corpses of yore. Thanks to the pen of Bram Stoker, his contemporaries, and thousands of subsequent writers, the once demonic mass of decaying flesh has been transformed into a suave gentleman with sublime social skills and a taste for repressed Victorian fianc�es. Of this new, well relatively, wave of blood suckers none has been as tapped as Dracula for the big screen. While Christopher Lee may go down as the best actor to play the caped crimson consumer, the most memorable performance has to be that of Bela Lugosi. Want proof? Well, just look at DRACULA THE DIRTY OLD MAN and GUESS WHAT HAPPENED TO COUNT DRACULA, where our man of the hour is given a certain vocal inflection that bears more than a passing resemblance to that of a certain Hungarian AA member.
