Oh. Jack Palance is trying his best to give off Chistopher Lee vibes in his reading the letter.
#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

This Dracula guy has had Botox. He cannot smile, and his lips don't move when he talks.
#Monsterdon
#dracula

"I brought these dirty pictures straight from London for you Count, the finest whores of Whitechapel!"

#monsterdon

As a vampire, Dracula understands the importance of inviting in guests.

#monsterdon #mastoween

I have dined already (at the blood bank)

#Monsterdon #Dracula

Lots of dogs in this neighborhood.
#monsterdon

@Taweret yeah but how come the events in the novel are the same every time #monsterdon

"Welcome to my house. Enter freely and with your own will."

- Me opening the door for Thanksgiving guests.

#Monsterdon

Happy tail waggin wolfie sheppards just want beggin' treats. #Monsterdon #Dracula1974

you find a pack of german shepards following your coach, you stare in horror, i find a pack of german shepards following my coach, WHAT GOOD BOIS, we are the not the same. #monsterdon

SUCH GOOD BOIS

THEY LOVE TO RUN

DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG oh wait we're wolves AWOO AWOO AWOO

#Monsterdon

Jonathan Harker is beset by troubled dreams that he is in the wrong movie #monsterdon

We are 9:30 into the film
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon so many doggies! they're so pretty

@Louisa see this tumblr post https://stainlesssteellocust.tumblr.com/post/755483200717045760/im-sat-drunk-in-the-beer-garden-of-a-rock-bar-and

#Monsterdon

Doggies! AWOOOOOOO! WOOOOO! Look at all the happy puppers.
#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

Jesus, this Harker is SO TRUSTING. look, he's *taking a nap!* I can't WAIT to see Jack drain him dry. #Monsterdon

dracula's horses go from zero to full trot in 0.3 seconds from the sound of it

that can't be good for them

#monsterdon #Dracula1974

#Monsterdon worst lyft ever. lost a star for not speaking english

The best part of any movie is the point where Harker goes, "Oh, I'm just heading up to Castle Dracula" and everyone around him goes

#Monsterdon

Oh, a common error. Castle Dracula is not Dracula. The vampire is Dracula. The castle is just Dracula's Castle. #monsterdon #palanceIsDracula

here's yer bag, Brit, now push off. #monsterdon

Push him out and run away!
#monsterdon

Every single resident of Dracula country is going to have a wildly different accent, aren't they #Monsterdon

This definitely seems like the most English of the Jonathans. He constantly looks like he's wondering if he ought to have brought an umbrella. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Pretty sure these wolves are also German Shepherds.

Wouldn't huskies be more convincing? Need wolfier dogs.

#Monsterdon I remember that lone wolf howl mainly from Sesame Street intros to sketches for The Count.
#Dracula1974

lol @ the carriage driver throwing the Brit's luggage at him in rage

#monsterdon

sounds like Palance brought his own Foley artist!

#monsterdon

Some beautiful establishing shots! #monsterdon

Beer commercial vibes right now #monsterdon

They really splashed out for that carriage and team!

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

SHOUTS IN NATIVE

#monsterdon #palanceIsDracula

Dan: Look, Cameramonkey! I told you a hundred times. MORE CLOSEUPS. I've got a fever and the inly prescription is more closeups!

#monsterdon

Lotsa zooming in tight on people's faces so far; if you're making a movie for TV, gotta make that DP earn his check, I guess

#monsterdon

So far, the transit system seems a lot more reasonable

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

And eat lots of liver, good for the blood, you know. #monsterdon

Jack Palance is playing Count Dracula in this movie, believe it… [deep audible inhale through the nostrils] or not. #Monsterdon

Jonathan Harker looks like he's at least 35

edit: the actor was 33 when this was filmed lol

Jack Palance has a nice Dracula voice, so there's that.

#Monsterdon

Hugs and kisses Dracula 🧛

#Monsterdon #Dracula

They totally read his mail.

#monsterdon

The camera has the zoomies again.

#monsterdon #mastoween

"Your Friend, Dracula"

Bit forward for a business email...

#monsterdon

Nothing spookier than checking into a hotel, let me tell you. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Bowler hat? Really? I really question your fashion choices there, Mr. Harker.

I wanna go for a ride through some spooky woods in a cute lil carriage that goes clippity-clop

#monsterdon

Very British sounding. #monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 I have good news if you like paprika?

#monsterdon #mastoween

I too do my math out loud. #monsterdon #palanceIsDracula

This director is found of a zoom reaction shot I see....

#monsterdon

bisquick hungary, the home of pancakes. #monsterdon

#monsterdon

[awoo intensifies]

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Dracula

Dan Curtis is a mood.
#monsterdon

Off to a very promising start for #Monsterdon.

✅ Day for night
✅ German Shepherds and Rottweilers standing in for wolves

some happy dogs running by and also somewhere there are wolves

#monsterdon

Kibbles and bits and bits and bloody bits ...

#Monsterdon #Dracula

Excellent title graphics. #Monsterdon

That wolfpack looks suspiciously like a bunch of german shepherds. #Monsterdon

Howling in opening scene. 10/10
#Monsterdon #Dracula

It was a dark and foggy night... and the dogs are all out

#monsterdon

Time to get Draculized

#Monsterdon

Awoooooo #monsterdon

Ambience! Off to a good start!

#monsterdon

And here we go, wolf howling to start
#Monsterdon

The soundscape is already promising.

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

Children of ze night! Shut up! #Monsterdon

AWOOOOOO #monsterdon

Dracula always riles up wild animals such as German Shepards.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

@Taweret @SnoopJ Ah gotcha, thanks, I forgot what was on the list

In Blacula I trust 👍

#Monsterdon

@Zerofactorial that seems like a no-brainer yeah, quality candidate

#monsterdon #Dracula1974

@Crazypedia Herzog used real bats and real Kinskis, not this limp affair #monsterdon

@apLundell They put that up front in Plan 9 from Outer Space. "Can you prove it DIDN'T happen?!"

#monsterdon #Dracula1974

This is my 5th or 6th Dracula movie and I don’t think any of them have featured the Bloofer Lady.

#monsterdon #dracula1974

#Monsterdon

And fin.

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

You have to be proven?! Will the real Dracula please stand up?... that's what I thought

#Monsterdon #Dracula1974

#Monsterdon Well that was an ending.

Ah we get the the backstory at the end. Nice touch.

Thanks everyone for joining and as always @Taweret for hosting!

#monsterdon #dracula1974

Dracula looking like he's grimacing in pain is intimidating, right? Right? /j #monsterdon
