Freddie Francis also directed Tales From The Crypt, Dracula Has Risen From His Grave (w/ Christopher Lee), Doctor Terrors House of Horrors, and some great Hitchcock-esque Hammer films: Paranoiac (1963) and Nightmare (1964)

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

Dracula versus Advertising
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

1973: Son of Dracula
1973: Rocky Horror
1974: Phantom of the Paradise

Something was in the water

#Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1973 #SonOfDracula #wrongFrogs #SonOfDracula1973

Everybody's talkin' in this movie

I don't hear a word they're sayin'

Only the echoes of my mind

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

@strangefour

Half of it WAS the background of a party

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Film dialogue and background music with lyrics don’t mix

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

That indescribable VHS color smear

#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Another odd one. Thanks @miru and everyone have a good week!

#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonDoubleFeature

Ringo is conquering evil with trick pool shots?
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Count Downe would be such a good supervillain name

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

Oh no it’s porno smear vision
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Find someone that loves you as much as white British rock musicians love trying to play reggae

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

“You are all my children, Baron Frankenstein”
These are some lines
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Son Of Scmilsson was really Harry at his best. Maybe The Point, but the narrative bits get annoying

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

@strangefour sure I guess idk

This falls apart if you think about it too hard

or if you don't think about it very hard at all

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

@strangefour I guess the monsters are trying to prevent Amber from being used in the operation to make Count Downe human, because... idk I kinda lost the plot a bit

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

Patients
Nuclear Waste

same thing really

Are we sure this isn’t Troma creeping in?
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

At least Nilsson didn’t try to do a Jamaican accent [glares at McCartney]

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

If this were more like Phantom Of The Paradise, they might have had something

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

This is NOT Funkytown
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

@strangefour yeah the musical interludes are really the saving grace of this one

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

Oh, the kitty who became a beautiful lady was Shakira Baksh, a.k.a. Lady Caine, wife of Sir Michael Caine

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakira_Caine

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Don’t sleep with your …coworkers? Drac
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Ah, so Drac wants to abdicate
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

How is Vincent Price NOT in this?!

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974

Oh hey they got an Interociter!
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Fresh dirt for the coffin, essential
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Drac’s pad is HAPPENING
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

The Wax Museum! The Perfect Hideout!
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

I suppose the plot here IS

THE MOON IS MOON

#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Admittedly I can just enjoy the Nilsson
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

It’s like if two trees had dialogue.

#Monsterdon #WrongFrogs #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

OMG Ringo, maybe the music will be passable, or at least nothing we have heard yet

#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonDoublefeature

Freddie Jones! He also starred in Hammer's Satanic Rites of Dracula the same year!

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

finished watching Son of Dracula 🌕🌑🌑🌑🌑
Meandering mess with a few musical moments of interest. Ringo Starr in particular underwhelms as Merlin.

Watched in #MonsterMiru watch party on Mastodon after #Monsterdon

#NeoDB

So anyway, Drac fell hard for a girl named Amber.
This #monsterdon #wrongfrogs was sure a something

...and then Ringo/Merlin became The Sun in The Teletubbies, The End #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

@strangefour huh me too actually

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

nooooo please don't make me remember any of that

Thanks as always @ryan for hosting and everybody for posting! See you next week!

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Dracula’s now a Real Boy!
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

HAND IN UNLOVEABLE HAND
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

They’re gonna fill Nilsson with the finest Heinz ketchup
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

You and the netherworld fight
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Pool table, operating table, same thing really
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

I suppose that is

Addressing the table
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Drac’s had the Keith Richards blood transfusion treatment
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

I feel like they are trying to be intellectual here and the sound engineers are completely undermining them
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Is that a groovy purple coffin?
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

…this is the extended music videos portion of our film.
Enjoy!
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

The movie that dares to answer the question "What if The Old Grey Whistle Test was even MORE shrill and tedious, and went on for what feels like weeks at a time?" #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

Oh good more Nilsson singing so I can forget the plot faster
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

This had a good start but the interminable meal with a vampire has awful pacing
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Oh, one of my favourite Nilsson tracks!

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

"Count Downe"

"countdown"

🤦

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

This is the same coronation room used by the British Empire you know
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Ah so this is Van Helsing

Finally Explained
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Gandalf's mirror gets more than one channel?

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Ringo's "Merlin" has smashed my decades-long belief that I would never encounter a Merlin worse than the one in the K Gordon Murray Santa Claus movies #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

Another kind of vampire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hollywood_Vampires

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

@strangefour Theoretically yes... in practice, we'll have to see

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

This movie and I apparently have vastly different ideas about the meaning of "Rock 'n' Roll" 🙄 #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

This song is very The Point

#Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1973 #SonOfDracula #wrongFrogs #SonOfDracula1973

Fair warning, Wikipedia seems to think there is something of an actual plot to this one

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

Is Merlin's basement just the London Dungeon?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Dungeon

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

@klu9 😂

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

This is the most ominous nothing I've seen in a long time

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

The only reason i know Harry Nilsson is because of the “Gotta Get Up” theme in “Poker Face” with Natasha Lyonne #monsterdondoublefeature #monsterdon #sonofdracula1974

Don’t drink don’t smoke, what do you do…
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

random drums being the best part of this movie so far

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

This is Porn-tastic levels of mediocre acting from old Ringo here. From everyone, actually #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

yes this totally sounds like Merlin

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

OH NO
BRITISH TEETH
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Ghostbusters mobile!

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #WrongSon

Is that…the ghost mobile??
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

"A vampire prince falls for a human while competing with Baron Frankenstein for the Netherworld crown promised by Merlin at a monster convention."

of course
#wrongson #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

Ringo as Gandalf-bot!

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Ringo!

#Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1974 #SonOfDracula #wrongFrogs

Son of Dracula (1974) now on https://miru.miyaku.media !

I think. Some nonsense is happening, not sure if movie or trailer. #monsterdon #WrongSon #monsterdondoublefeature

Despite appearances, Rod Stewart is not on this film
#monsterdon #wrongfrogs

Well that was a thing. Thanks @miru @Taweret for another fabulous #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #sonofdracula1974 ❤️❤️ see you next week!

Thanks @Taweret , @ryan and the entire gang!

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

"The End... Or is it?"

Classic #Monsterdon !

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Remember how bad Son of Dracula 1974 was?

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

"I leave for all time my ties to your world" made them VERY angry, they must have seen how ugly all the ties in this movie are #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

To the Dracula family estate for a press conference

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

I don't want to see him discharge anything, in any way #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

"Oh, I took the liberty of changing your girlfriend's name to Rebma. Also she's dead" #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

*clink clink clink* now kiss!

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

The two leads and the principal couple of the movie: the tassled lampshades #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature

Both the song writers of "I Can't Live If Living is Without You" committed suicide, in part because of legal issues over the song's royalties once Nilsson's cover became huge

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Important to have your backup singers well trained when going into surgery

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

@diazona @strangefour Plot? There’s a PLOT?

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #SonOfDracula1974

@moira this is a good sentence

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #SonOfDracula1974

cat
