    Dracula goes in to seduce Melinda Plowman and turn her into "the undead".
    Carradine did insist the Count refer to himself as "the undead'.

    Dracula then goes to the doctor's office to pick up the ailing Melinda Plowman.

    Here is an infamous scene in which the good doctor jhold a mirror to Dracula's face and he replies:

    RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

    In this film the only way to kill a vampire is to drive a spike thru it's heart.

    Doesn't have to be wood.

    This almost plays more like a serial chapter or a television western.

    Still great fun.

    Billy is offered a spike and refuses thinking Dracula can be stopped by a regular bullet.

    Carradine seems to have some trouble carrying her up the little hill into the mine.

    Great cave set, though.

    Dracula has the interiors lit with candles.
    I do like his cape here.

    The bright red ascot is a bit odd.

    He looks like he could be playing a caricature of the devil.

    Dracula attacks Billy and growls as he strangles him. Billy shoots but to no avail.

    Dracula is clearly out of breath after his struggle with Billy.

    The bat-side of Drac flies out into the open and dies.

    Dracula turns to bones.

    I always liked those old morphing effects.

    Billy's fiancee awakens and all is well again!

    Happy ending.

    The film's logo is replaced by the DVD logo.

    And so ends BILLY THE KID VS DRACULA (1966).

    It's an acquired taste and not to everyone's liking. I, myself love it for all it's B movie cheese appeal.
    Interestingly, there are more public domain versions of JESSE JAMES MEETS FRANKENSTEIN'S DAUGHTER than there are of this film. A better chance to find a decent copy. This DVD of the Dracula film is borderline un-watchable print wise. I love it that way, though, but would most certainly pick up a new transfer if the opportunity arose.

    Fun film.

    Hard to believe it's been a couple weeks since I participated in this thread.
    Being tonight is Friday the 13th, time for some classic horror.

    So begins Hammer's initiation into Gothic remakes in beautiful Eastmancolor.

    White titles play over an orange/red background with faint misty fog.

    Music composed by James Bernard. My fave Hammer composer.

    Directed by Terence Fisher.

    Woodsy mountainside.

    Matte Painting actually.

    This was shot at Bray Studios. Hammer made use of redesigning the same sets for other scenes and films. The jail chamber Baron Frankenstein is imprisoned in is the same as his laboratory.
