Time for Horror which isn't scary at all




 Vampire without blood on screen
 
I won't start from the beggining. It would be too boring. Let's start in 1931 in the era of black and white film, but colorful posters :)
Today it will be a Horror Movie, which is funny (today!) not scary.
Doom doom doom" And now please welcome "Dracula"

Poster


Dracula for the first time, has been shown in 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker, but America simply fell in love with Vampire Count. What is surprising the main character was played by a Hungarian actor-Bela Lugosi (hmm hmm it wans't an american star). However his Dracula was the iconic one, the one who inspired others. Just look at him.

Bala Lugosi as Dracula


 Why it isn't scary? Vampire=blood and blood is red, and here we are in black and white movie. It is terribly funny. What is more the first version was  without Soundtrack. And that fact is scary. Later on it was aded, but I give you a challenge try to watch it in this basic version.


And Ladies and Gentelmen I give you the trailer (yeah in 1931 trailers were alive)


And this thriller font...

Ok. I took you to the oldschool, but isn't it interesting?
What do you think about Hungarian star in American film?
Would you dare to watch it without music? 


And simple request:

again...;)
