Classic Monsters of the Movies' Nige Burton & Jamie Jones continue their analysis of one of the most iconic, horror figures ever conceived, Count Dracula. Through The Dracula Legacy: A Celebration of Bram Stoker's Vampire on Screen, the historians bring Dracula's cinematic history full circle, in a way that will please both avid novices and seasoned connoisseurs.
The periodical's frightful, front-cover collage captures the 36-pg edition's breathtaking expanse, which entails the varied ways that Bram Stoker's world-shaking novel influenced audiences, not only with fright, but forbidding romance.

Elias Merhige/Wilhem Dafoe's Shadow of the Vampire, Tod Browning/Bela Lugosi's Dracula, George Melford/Carlos Vellarias' Dracula, Lambert Hillyer/Gloria Holden's Dracula's Daughter, Robert Siodmak/Lon Chaney Jr.'s Son of Dracula, Erie C. Kenton's House of Frankenstein & House of Dracula (the latter two with John Carradine), Terence Fisher/Christopher Lee's (Horror of) Dracula, plus its many sequels, Jess Franco's Count Dracula (again with Lee), Philipe Saville/Louis Jourdan's Count Dracula, Paul Landres/Francis Lederer's The Return (Curse) of Dracula, Paul Morrisey/Udo Kier's (Andy Warhol's) Blood for Dracula, John Badham/Frank Langella's Dracula, Dan Curtis/Jack Palance's Bram Stoker's Dracula, Francis Ford Coppola/Gary Oldman's Bram Stoker's Dracula, Patrick Lussier/Gerard Butler's Dracula 2000, Marc Gatiss/Steven Moffat/Claes Bang's Dracula, William Crain/William Marshall's Blacula and many more (both known and obscure) to get one's jugular throbbing.
