Watch it! You're talking about an absolute classic. It is the Adamson one in the picture.

I've never seen it to be fair.

Is it actually any good?

The only Adamson film i've seen is Blood of Dracula's Castle which i felt a bit on the rubbish side. I may well be slighting him on the strength of one film.

Maybe they've all been forced to watch Blood of Ghastly Horror and are contemplating burying themselves under their own bathrooms.

In what way? Surely they are completely differing in styles? As i say i've only seen Blood of Dracula's Castle but going off that it seemed very low budget, averagely acted and neither horrific or sexy.

Whereas Franco was extremely diverse often had good actors - Lee, Kinski, Vernon and frequently decent sized budgets, especially the many films he made for Harry Allan Towers. Yes he made some rubbish but more often than not his films are quite interesting.

Interestingly i've been looking at scores for Adamson films on IMDB. They are really low, in fact incredibly low, even for low budget tat.

That's fair enough then. I didn't know that. Then again i wasn't the one who said Dracula vs Frankenstein was rubbish, that was Treb.
