Known for his roles in iconic series such as James Bond, Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and Gremlins to name a few. He is amazing in the original Wicker Man (seriously, watch that movie! He is also a singer (the heavy metal kind). Happy Birthday Sir Christopher Lee!

Public Domain Halloween Feature: Nosferatu

This is the last full horror movie for this year. As with the others the film is in public domain (you can download it legally). The feature film for Halloween is Nosferatu (1922), one of the first vampire movies.

Dracula Untold trailer

This is the first trailer for the new Universal movie about the Prince of Darkness. It seems like a comic-book style origin story that tries to combine the historical Vlad Tepes with the character created by Bram Stoker. The first half of the trailer reminded me of 300 but the second part makes me think of Castlevania. The settings, how he uses his powers and the way the character looks. Maybe the film makers took some inspiration from the legendary video game series. The movie looks like it might be fun.
