@analgesicsleep.bsky.social“Dracula A.D. 1972” is the 7th Hammer horror Dracula film. It’s the 6th to star Christopher Lee as Dracula and the 3rd to feature Peter Cushing as Van Helsing.

@davidhyman.bsky.socialFifty-four years ago today, Dracula A.D. 1972 opened at the Columbia Shaftesbury Avenue... #DraculaAD1972 #1970s #film #films #AlanGibson #ChristopherLee #PeterCushing #CarolineMunro #StephanieBeacham #ChristopherNeame #Dracula #horror
@millerfilm.bsky.socialThe music lets you know how "mod" the movie is. 😅
Great to have you on here for this Dracula double feature!
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialThey ask Van Helsing for his expertise, convince him it really applies here when he thinks it doesn't, and then when he's convinced and gives them his opinion they reply, "Are you joking?" ...🙃 #DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
@millerfilm.bsky.socialExactly!
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialYou gotta feel for poor Dracula.
Never knowing what weird loser you'll be face-to-face with every time you're brought back to life. Someone there to serve you but feels you owe them, who'll be staring at you every second, calling you master and hanging on your every word...🙄 #DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
@millerfilm.bsky.socialSo..."The Stone Ground" "just barged in" and brought all their instruments, mics, mic stands, drum kit, all of it?
Okay, movie. Sure.
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialWhy did they just bolt?
#DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
@millerfilm.bsky.social"The Stone Ground," ladies and gentlemen.
i.e. The most incongruous musical performance in the history of film.
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialIf my great grandfather was buried outside the door—F*** these guys and their stupid overdramatic amateur ceremony!
And I'd head straight home to grandfather asking if we know what's going to happen to his resting place with this church decommissioned. I'm a nerd like that. #DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
@millerfilm.bsky.socialDracula driven through the heart with a spike. Then crumbles to dust instantly.
He'll be fine.
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialAww man. If Peter Cushing was MY grandfather, I'd hang out with him all the time! People don't even know when they have nice things. #DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
@millerfilm.bsky.socialNarrator at the beginning: "1872. Here in Hyde Park, the final confrontation between Lawrence Van Helsing and his archenemy Count Dracula."
"Final" confrontation?
@millerfilm.bsky.socialEASILY my favorite Hammer "Dracula" movie because of its absolute insanity. 😀
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialIn my imagination Dracula shows up in 1972 and a cult of idiots follow him around begging him to bite them and "hang out" and he's trying to lose them and figure out how to go back to his grave for another 90 years and see if things are cooler when or if he wakes up again. #DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
@coughlinbrett.bsky.socialDracula 1972 is a fantastic film.
A Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing masterclass.
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialGeez I just left the room for a second because the cat decided to see if she could open an air vent and fit down it.
Now I have no idea how he got stabbed by half a wheel. Or who mutton chops guy is. Damn and Van Helsing died already? #DraculaAD1972 #TCMParty
