Dracula: The Legacy Collection (DVD, 2004, 2-Disc Set)

The Legacy Collection is a superb method to view so many works of the genre. Beginning with 1931 DRACULA with Bela Lugosi, Edward Van Sloan as Van Helsing, great music score. Next, 1931 DRACULA (SPANISH VERSION), filmed at night, while English version was filmed during the day, just as good as the English version. Next, 1936 DRACULA'S DAUGHTER, again with Edward Van Sloan as "Von" Helsing & Otto Kruger as Dr. Garth. then, 1943 SON OF DRACULA with Lon Chaney Jr As Count Alucard with a weak story & characterizations. Lastly, 1945 HOUSE OF DRACULA with The Wolf Man, Dracula & Frankenstein's Monster, with the talents of John Carradine, Lionel Atwill & Lon Chaney Jr. In-depth reviews by Stephen Sommers, Lupita Tovar, David J Skal & many others, including THE ROAD TO DRACULA, a documentary of the making of the 1931 original. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy!!

Very good movie perfect for anyones collection who likes the classic universal Monsters this DVD contains five Dracula movies all in B&W the original Dracula (1931), and also the Original Dracula in Spanish (1931), House of Dracula, son of Dracula & Draculas Daughter.

Out of all the vampire films and folklore throughout history, Bram Stoker's Bela Lugosi Dracula remains the best over all. Not only dracula but witness the inheritance of his evil in "Daughter of Dracula", "Son of Dracula", and "House of Dracula" on this amazing dvd set in a society with no respect for the classics.

Every horror fan should own these Legacy collections. First off, you're getting the original classic film. In addition, you get a good amount of great features and additions. I personally think that the later Dracula sequels aren't that great, but the documentary featured in the collection makes up for them. Overall, it's a great purchase and gives horror fans a good amount of content for a relatively low price.

I was very happy to finally able to get all these movies on DVD but, I was even more excited to finally get a DVD copy of "House of Dracula". I have never had a copy of this film on DVD before. Thanks Universal, a job well done.
