"much in need of repair" good, that'll give me something to do during those long boring nights. #monsterdon

Yet again, another movie that patches the plot hole where Dracula just *happens* to find and vampirize Lucy and Mina. I wonder if this movie will also have Renfield somehow connected to Dracula too? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon ⚰️ 🧛‍♀️ 🦇 😱

That is a very fine bow ascot though

#monsterdon so this Dracula is one who demonstrates domination by interrupting 🙄

@Taweret He's just so *huggable.* #Monsterdon

Ooo look he's falling in love remotely.

#monsterdon
#Dracula1974

Carfax is where a dumb animated mascot sells you a used car.

#Monsterdon

It occurs to me that this whole real estate deal was a success because Dracula realized the property was close to a good meal. But then we all like having a good restaurant in walking distance. #Monsterdon

"I would like to know more about this... Carfax."

#monsterdon #Dracula1974

He's totes imagining all the things he's gonna do to...with her.

#monsterdon

"Do you know if they like to... swing?"

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Dracula likes it so much, he’s gonna sneeze, or resolve his constipation. Or both. Spontaneously.

"I myself... am in much need of repair"

#monsterdon
#DanCurtis’sDracula

They say you can always date a movie by the women's hair. Anyway Harker's hair is pure 1970s.
#Monsterdon

I forget when exactly I heard it, but once I heard that this little tv movie is the most accurate to the book version of Dracula. SO I guess I'll find out if that's true or someone was pulling my leg at a party.
#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

CARFAX???

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

@rberlim REALLY does. I was skimming it a little earlier and it's like "goddamn if this wasn't widescreen I'd be sure it was made for TV" and then it was!

#monsterdon #Dracula1974

@Taweret Up until he started stroking the real estate listings he was kinda coming off as "kindly grandpa." #monsterdon

Jack! Line! #Monsterdon #Dracula1974

Did he somehow manage to put out a picture of his family while in the middle of frantically finding pictures of the house for sale? I'm so confused.

(the car alarm going off outside my apartment isn't helping)

#Monsterdon

The count really loves his German Shepards

#monsterdon

@RufusJCooter I'd have to see how he dances before deciding #monsterdon

I too bring framed photos with me when I travel.

#Monsterdon #DanCurtisDracula

#Monsterdon flipping thru them, like a franchisee for Popeyes. We’ll put it here, there, and oooh over there!

A solicitor should know better than to tell a stranger a woman's address.

#Monsterdon
#Dracula1974

#Monsterdon this is why you never hand your phone to someone with the gallery open

they'll swipe too far

"...Jonathan, you're <heavy breathing> my <heavy breathing> number <heavy breathing> one guy!"

#Monsterdon #Dracula

This movie has that "Made for TV" aura all around
#monsterdon

I grew up with Jack Palance as a TV science instructor so it's fun to see him acting.

#monsterdon
#Dracula1974

Jack Palance bringing Mr Darcy energy to the role of Dracula, unexpected but I'll allow it #monsterdon

#Monsterdon rude to serve dinner and then immediately demand to be shown zillow photos

@nev i'm getting the gist #monsterdon

@Crazypedia almost effective too, if it wasnt for all the sun rays

#monsterdon

The colors in this film have been so lush so far. Maybe a poor choice for a vampire movie, but it's a nice change of pace from the last two. #monsterdon

Who does Drac's hair? 'cause DAMN! #Monsterdon #Dracula1974

[Dracula leaves while Harker's talking]

Dracula no! You have to practice your masking better than that bud

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon That cravat is epic.

you tell me to eat, you tell me to get the photos, dude make up your mind. #monsterdon

I recognize this meal from @Louisa's miniature!

#monsterdon

"Enter freely and of your own will" is like my favorite line in any adaptation. It's the writer basically screaming "I'M ABOUT TO DO SOME SHIT TO YOU HARKER" #Monsterdon

Drac lacks the social graces #Monsterdon

I feel like I should know a specific name for a giant bow tie

#Monsterdon

Well, his cheekbone game is on point at least.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon #dracula1974 he looks like grandpa munster lol

I love that Dracula is as poorly socialized after years in isolation as I am #relatable #monsterdon

That's a way brightly lit room for Draculas castle!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon finally a properly set table

I like how this Dracula is discreet about his teeth.

#monsterdon
#Dracula1974

#Monsterdon jack palance looks magnificent

That was the most "do you accept our terms and conditions" welcome I've ever heard

#Monsterdon

Dracula's digs are both worse and better than last week's #Monsterdon

like it doesn't help that we JUST saw Kinski in the role either

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon bonkers elaborate bow ties. They’re so precious!

Certainly the Dracula with the widest face. #monsterdon

Of course, in Victorian England, the ride sharing service would be Ye Olde Ubre.

#monsterdon

This Dracula is mournful. Who hurt my precious little vampire?

#Monsterdon #DanCurtisDracula

RUDE
#monsterdon

@TerryHancock yeah it's more like "bloody English tourists ugh" :blobrollingeyes: #Monsterdon

he does a lot more dusting than the average dracula

#monsterdon #Dracula1974

I always greet my guest that way and not one has found it not spooky!
#Monsterdon

Three for three on Dracula movies where Harker doesn't have the paprika hendl
ಠ_ಠ

#Monsterdon

Yo this Drac is SUAVE what the hell #monsterdon

Day-for-night always looks so goofy. Especially for color films.

This is one thing that old films definitely didn't do better than modern ones. #Monsterdon

Joke's gonna be on Harker when he realizes the coach actually brought him to the OTHER local vampire castle. This is what you get for not actually getting an answer out of your driver.

#Monsterdon

Dracula is definitely rocking the best haircut

#monsterdon

"...oh, good evening."
"Don't you mean ... goooood eeeeeevennnnning?"

#Monsterdon #Dracula

#monsterdon #dracula1974 i love how like 14 different people simultaneously make the same riff about what's on screen - it works since the feed is scrolling so fast lol

Dan Curtis' Dracula continuing the tradition of good actor dogs in horror #monsterdon

@RufusJCooter Only sociopaths do that #monsterdon #trump

If you’re travelling to a distant country and your local uber driver refuses to take you to a certain destination, believe them. #monsterdon #dracula1974

If I was riding in a carriage to an old castle and a bunch of happy puppers came running alongside us, I'd consider it a good sign.

#monsterdon

Count Palance is here! The rootin`est tooten`ish low down biten`ist Dracula in these here parts.
#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

I want a doormat that says "Enter freely and of your own will"

#monsterdon
#DanCurtis’sDracula

@msh

Not nearly as much ominous foreboding from the locals in this one, though.

#Monsterdon

The dogs look like fun to me.

#monsterdon
#Dracula1974

couldn't anyone come up with anything original or is every movie for the rest of time going to be "guy trying to sell a house to dracula, but then something happens and his wife or something ends up getting drained by dracula and then he dies somehow." now i admit i haven't been paying close attention to the last two dracula movies but it seems familiar #Monsterdon

kinda baller how he named his house after himself.

Gonna start calling my place Shack Rufus

#monsterdon

Someone's hunt pack is following you bro! #monsterdon

A little TOO MANY WHIP CRACKS, Foley guys. Just saying.

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

Oh the doggo doing helicopter tail! So happ!

#Monsterdon #DanCurtisDracula

This carriage ride is serving "Vimes Goes To Uberwald"

#monsterdon #palanceIsDracula

more use of blue-is-the-same-as-night filters I see

#monsterdon

Apparently dogs have been chasing vehicles of one kind or another for centuries.

#Monsterdon #Dracula

Vampire drivers are the absolute worst.

#Monsterdon #Dracula

driver, slow down. I wanna pet those dogs

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon ⚰️ 🧛‍♀️ 🦇 😱

They switched out those horses for the long shot

#Monsterdon little known trivia fact. The carriage driver who threw the luggage at Johnathan’s head? The guy who founded UPS! No lie! His half-brother by incest founded DHL. That’s where their erratic driving started! For real! ;)

Yeah slow down and pet those good dogs #Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie
At least this time the stage coach driver isn't trying to gaslight Harker that he doesn't have any horses, while brushing one right in front of him.
#Dracula1974 #Monsterdon

Harker's face looks _just enough_ like Mister Bean that it keeps subliminally bothering me

#monsterdon

Day for night? Yes, day for night. You can mark that on your bingo card. #monsterdon

I always get on strange carriages in the middle of the wood. #Monsterdon
#dracula

Comedy comes in threes, movie. Have him ask "are you to take me to Castle Dracula" one more time! #monsterdon

MOAR DOGGOS! #Monsterdon

Oh, he heard you, but you did specify in the Lyft the "Extreme Unconversationalist" option.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon
Unfriendly uber carriage

#monsterdon In a carriage through the Carpathians likeBoingBoingBoingBoingBoing

I think Jonathan Harker is starting to think he might not be able to find Curly's gold.

#Monsterdon #Dracula

Are you my uber driver?

No response.

That's a yes then.

#monsterdon

Nothing ever changes - they treat their luggage like airport luggage handlers.

#Monsterdon
