Not bloody likely.

Were they worth a quid for the pair of 'em?

Yes. Yes they were. :banana:

I watched the Johnny Depp version last year, and didn't think it too bad. 

The original tv series is available on Amazon Prime, and probably elsewhere. I couldn't take too much of it, as I think the emphasis was more on the soap opera aspect imo. (thumbsu

I have the Dennis Gifford book with Karloff on the cover (my introduction to horror movies at a young age) and the House of Horror book.

I think a lot of British horror fans owe that to Dennis Gifford. It was a time when  there was a great deal written about  films of any genre; he kick started it  in the UK for sure.

He's got a few others amongst that list too.(thumbsu

I've still got my copy of the Gifford book. Most fans my age have one! 

BTW, that's Chaney from "Ghost of Frankenstein".

Yes, Jack Palance looked like he was born to play Dracula

Jack Palance played Dracula in a 1974 TV movie 

Produced and directed by Dan Curtis, screenplay Richard Matheson, which allows me to post this interview with Curtis about his best offering for tv. .....around the 12 minute mark, he compares making movies then to making movies now, something I think we can all agree to, (or not).
