The Horror of Dracula - in which Christopher Lee is mother fucking DRACULA, but Peter Cushing defeats him anyway. So, it begins, as it should, with Jonathan Harker visiting Castle Dracula looking like a nerd, and Dracula greets him creepily, then locks him in a room for the evening. Harker is there as a librarian, and Dracula assures him he will get to look at all the books tomorrow. But, while Drax is sleeping, Harker creeps him and tries to stake him! Twist! He does not succeed, however, and Dracula converts him and flies to London to take his woman. Back in the city, Harker's girlfriend is Lucy, and she lives with her brother Arthur and his wife, Mina. Yeah, I know. Its actually better this way. So, Dracula starts his long-term plan to bring Lucy back to his lair, but Van Helsing is snooping around, looking for his friend, Harker. Jonathan had been keeping him in the loop, vampire-wise, so Van Helsing is on Dracula's trail. He enlists the help of Arthur, and they trek to Castle Dracula, they have to kill their friend who is a vampire now, but then Van Helsing totally kills Dracula, but only because the script says so. Christopher Lee rules. He's probably a god by now.
