Spooky Goat day twenty-four! SPOOKY SOMEBODY ON NBC MEETS DRACULA
5SPOOKY HARDY BOYS! AND MCCLOUD!
I’ve had this Hardy Boys episode on youtube up for DAYS and haven’t watched it yet, so, yeah. Posting it here so I can close it. It’s in ten damn parts. Here’s part one of The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula:
Weirdly, there’s also McCloud Meets Dracula. I know Dracula was having a moment, thanks to Frank Langella’s sexy disco vampire, but still. John Carradine is great, as always.
I never accepted Langella’s Dracula (being a Bela Lugosi/Christopher Lee fan) until I watched Mel Brooks’ The Twelve Chairs as an adult and realized that he had a very similar look/vibe to Lee (just in general, being tall, at least partially Italian and beautiful).

Yeah, of the three - Frank Langella, Bela Lugosi, Christopher Lee - Frank’s the one I’d be most willing to have bite me.
@Kyeh They’re all super-hot in their own way, but yeah. Frank also has the edge in still being alive.
@Kyeh @mossygreen Or at least undead.
Here’s a cool photo: The Four Kings of Horror (Christopher Lee; Vincent Price; John Carradine; Peter Cushing)

@Kyeh I want to print it out and hang it on the wall! I also want to see what mediocrebot does with the concept. But I’m actually too tired right now. I swear I’m not making work for anyone else. Just sayin’, as is said.

@MarkDaSpark OK, this is amazing, but I don’t know which are the four kings!
@mossygreen
Not sure any of them are! Maybe Peter Cushing top left? Bottom right looks like Bronson Pinchot …
@MarkDaSpark I was going to say bottom right looks like either Paul McGann or that guy who’s not Richard E. Grant in Withnail & I, but then I remembered at the last minute that Paul McGann IS the guy who’s not Richard E. Grant in Withnail & I. It’s been a real roller coaster.
