Can you believe this is the 4th year of 31 Days of Halloween? This year I am taking the reins with some help from Susan Harris. Things might look a little different but I guarantee one thing - Lots of "different" Halloween options! Day 10 - Blood For Dracula (1974)Melanie Says - And now for something totally different. There are a lot of vampire movies out there, especially Dracula movies, but this one has a special place in my heart because it is just SO SO badly filmed and edited - that it actually makes it good. Think about the lowest budget special effects that you could find (need a person to look green - no problem - hold a green light near their face), some of the most over the top acting (if you have seen the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie - the overacting in this tops Paul Reubens death scene), and of course there's the fact that the only thing that can save you from Dracula is not being a virgin! Add to that ridiculous accents that make no sense, some questionable choices with a skeevy gardener (I can save you - just have sex with me), and you might be asking why you should watch this. I honestly can't tell you why other than I love it. I think Udo Kier is fabulous. I can totally see why they chose him to play Dracula, he has cheekbones to die for. Sometimes you just need a total B movie experience to escape the total ridiculousness of the world today - plus there is a cameo from Roman Polanski - so be sure to watch for that (if you decide to watch). At the moment you can check it out for free - so live on the edge - take a chance! We did tell you this year's list would offer some unusual suggestions. Susan Says - This sounds like a terrible movie - so of course Mel likes it LOL Streaming Availability - Available To Watch Free With TUBI at the time of posting. (They have it listed as "Andy Warhol's Young Dracula" but it is the same movie) WATCH HERE Have you seen it? What did you think? Will you be watching it?
