Saw Dracula (aka Horror of Dracula) last night, which I've somehow never seen before. Didn't think I was going to like it at first - doesn't help that the guy playing Harker is a total wet fish - but once it got going and Peter Cushing (and then the great Michael Gough - looking younger than I've ever seen him before!) turned up I started really getting into it and enjoying it. It was obvious within a few minutes that it was a pretty loose adaptation of the book (to put it mildly) but it ended up being the most fast-paced and fun version of Dracula I've ever seen before. Hugely atmospheric and great oldskool spooky fun. Looking forward to the rest of the series now.
