Dracula (1974 TV Movie)
4/10
"Welcome to the Carpathians"
31 October 2022
Offering the novelty of Jack Palance as a highly saturnine Count Dracula and visibly the recipient of much more money and ambition than have been expended on it than Dan Curtis's earlier tv horror shows that began with 'Dark Shadows'. Here he splashed out on distinguished collaborators like veterans Ozzie Morris and Richard Matheson and on foreign locations. Both the costumes and various scenes show at least a passing acquaintance with venerable antecedents like 'Nosferatu' and Tod Browning's 'Dracula' although the use of zooms and slow motion rather date it and the amount of talk betrays it's TV origins.
