Description
Here is the first ever authorized film about the legendary horror actor, Bela Lugosi, the man who portrayed Dracula, Hollywood's most famous Vampire. "Lugosi: The Curse of Dracula" is a chilling story featuring footage from 20 of Lugosi's biggest films, plus outtakes, clips, trailers, interviews and stills from his childhood days in Hungary, and his career on Broadway through the Hollywood era. Updated with newly released footage and re-mastered! Typecasting proved Lugosi's real-life horror and he spent his years fighting for a chance to act on his own terms. His discouragement led to a series of low-budget films and a battle with drug dependence, leading to his eventual death, a broken man, in 1956. But, Lugosi's legacy lives on and his films today are bigger than ever. You'll get to see Creature Feature footage from Lugosi's Biggest Hits including: Dracula, The Ape: Man; Human Monster; Ghost of Frankenstein; Murders In The Rue Morgue; and Plan 9 From Outer Space. Enjoy personal memories of Lugosi from his costars Ralph Bellamy, John Carradine, and Carroll Borland, as well as writer/producer, Alex Gordon. Plus, interviews with Sara Karloff, Bela G. Lugosi, Donnie Dunagan, Janet Anne Gallow, Terry Castle, Carla Laemmle, Louise Currie, Ann Jeffreys, Bob Burns and more. Lugosi The Curse of Dracula is a thorough account of Bela Lugosi's fascinating life and times. Hosted by Forrest J. Ackerman the world's leading authority on horror films and officially authorized by the Lugosi Family. Don't miss it!
