Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
This is by far not the worst vampire or Dracula movie on the market but it is nowhere near the best - it's middle ground at best. It's not a film I would recommend to vampire and horror movie fans but it is not one I would say it's just so awful that you should stay clear of - I'll tell you it's so-so or okay.John Carradine had a fairly decent role as George - the butler. He got ample screen time which I really like. The character George is the butler and caretaker of Count Dracula aka Count Townsend and his Countess. George was saved by the Count from hanging and is forever the Count's loyal servant.The Count and his bride has come across a newer, less vile way to drink the blood of their victims - which they prefer. The young women being held hostage are drained via needle so the Count and his bride drink the blood as human drink wine.There is a very violent criminal named Johnny who escapes prison and runs to see his old "pal" George and the Count. He joins them in helping to get fresh blood (victims) for the Count and his bride.The is also a very strange man in the castle that helps the Count named Mango. He is there to help make sacrifices to the evil God Luna.Enter Glen and Liz enter, the story becomes kinda boring and draggy but they will "save the day".Overall an OK watch - not a film that is memorable, impressionable but kinda campy fun in its way.5/10
This is a Dracula sequel and if it does not scary you no movie will. Dracula and his wife live into modern times. This movie has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. It is very intense movie. Alexander D'Arcy was great has Dracula. He real know how to be scary. He was a great actor. John Carradine was a great actor. Paula Raymond was great actress. This movie is not has scary has Dracula (1931). Dracula (1992) is also scarier. But still it came close to being has scary. This is one of the scarier movie from 1969. See it. Gene Otis Shayne is a great actor. This is scarier then The Exorcist and that is not an easy thing to do.
Glen Cannon (Gene Otis Shayne) is a photographer, Liz Arden (Jennifer Bishop) his model girlfriend. Glen receives word that he has an inherited a desert castle. They travel to the place to look it over and meet the long time occupants: a couple named the "Townsends", Charles (Alexander D'Arcy), and his wife the Countess (Paula Raymond). These two like their drinks fresh, red, and drained from the bodies of nubile young women, whom they keep chained up in their cellar. Also on the premises are a dedicated butler, George (John Carradine), and a big ugly brute named Mango (Ray Young). And on the way there is Johnny (Robert Dix), a young friend of the sophisticated old couple who grows hair and fangs every full moon."Blood of Dracula's Castle" is mildly amusing as far as this kind of schlock goes. Director Al Adamson churned out a lot of low budget genre efforts like this one, and they never really get any better in quality, but they're always entertaining in a blatantly silly way. The actors perform with their best poker faces, never winking at the audience and taking this low rent material as seriously as it can be taken. As one can see, the screenwriter, Rex Carlton, was throwing all kinds of ideas at the wall to see what would stick, and the movie delivers in a purely dumb, exploitative way. Johnny, in particular, just can't help himself. Even when the law is pursuing him and nipping at his heels, he stops long enough to drown a buxom young babe. It's also a hoot to watch Mango in action, as it doesn't matter what you do to him. Set him on fire, shoot him multiple times, he just keeps coming.The ladies on hand - also among them is Vicki Volante as unlucky motorist Ann - are very attractive. Carradine is a welcome presence as always. D'Arcy is an especially entertaining villain because he's just so damn pleasant and cheerful. The same goes for the generally upbeat Dix. John 'Bud' Cardos rounds out the assortment of Adamson regulars as an ill fated prison guard.This is definitely good for some laughs if one wants to have a "bad movie night".Five out of 10.
"Glen Cannon" (Glen Otis Shayne) is a photographer who suddenly receives a telegram saying that a rich uncle has died and left him a castle in the desert of California. Definitely wanting to check it out he and his fiancé "Liz Arden" (Barbara Bishop) decide to drive there and inform the people who are renting it that they will have to leave. What they don't know is that the renters just happen to be "Count Dracula" (Alexander D'Arcy) and his companion "Countess Townsend" (Paula Raymond) and neither of them have any intention of leaving. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that the concept was somewhat interesting but it suffered from too many characters and subplots which caused a lack of overall coherence. Likewise, it also didn't have the necessary action or Gothic feel which most fans of the genre expect to see. Even so it had some attractive young ladies like Vicki Volante (as "Ann") and the aforementioned Barbara Bishop as some compensation for the rather vapid plot. But it wasn't enough. Accordingly, I give the movie a rating of below average.
