UnowPriceless hyped garbage
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Hitchcoc In the age of professional wrestling, we are bombarded with the word "versus." Just about every monster has had an adversarial role in one of these encounters. Certainly Godzilla leads the way, as do many of the other rubbery Toho monsters. But we have others along the way. This one pits the two most famous creations of all time. It's a wonder no one had ever tried it before. I was apprehensive when I found this, but it was good fun if we don't take it too seriously. There is a kind of campy style that shows through as our main characters make their ways across the screen. It doesn't really deserve that worst movie ever designation--not even close.
Smoreni Zmaj Every decade has its own specific atmosphere. As B production of the 1980s is recognizable at first glance, so the atmosphere of this film is simply screaming 1970s. They say this film is so bad it's good. I wouldn't agree. Although the idea is quite original and the story is somewhat decent, this is an extremely cheap, amateur-directed and mounted movie and acting is terrible. One of those movies where the boobs of main actress are the only thing worth watching, and since you will not see them, better skip.2,5/10Pictures of Panda-Dracula, a formless mass that should represent Frankenstein's monster and the most explicit view of Regina Carrol's tits you can easily find on Google Pictures, so you'll know what I'm talking about.
BA_Harrison Buxom blonde Vegas showgirl Judith (Regina Carrol) goes looking for her missing sister Joanie (Maria Lease), her search leading her to a fairground sideshow run by Dr. Duryea (J. Carrol Naish), the last of the Frankenstein family, who is working on a serum that can revive the dead. Helping Duryea in his work is hulking axe-wielding dope Groton (Lon Chaney Jr.) and midget barker Grazbo (Angelo Rossito). Also joining in with the fun are Count Dracula (Zandor Vorkov), who believes that the scientist's serum will make him invincible, and Frankenstein's monster, who has been exhumed by the vampire.There's no denying that Dracula vs Frankenstein is a lousy film, shot and acted with zero semblance of skill or talent, but it's also fairly entertaining for that very reason. With a 'make it up as they went along' script, inept special effects, laughable performances, and random guff involving hippies and bikers, this is grade-Z drive-in nonsense that fans of trash cinema will lap up. Among the film's hilarious highlights are Judith's awful musical number (her ample chest barely contained by her outfit), the axe-swinging Groton lopping off Joanie's head, Judith having a bad acid trip, the unexpected death of a major character (zapped by Dracula's deadly laser ring), and the unforgettable sight of Dracula ripping off the monster's arms.
dworldeater Al Adamson's Dracula Vs. Frankenstein is a monster mash that is more horrible than horror. However, this shoddily made piece of sholock is amusing and memorable. Dracula Vs. Frankenstein is a real bad and cheap exploitation film, but it still is fun and delivers the goods for some extremely campy entertainment. J. Carrol Naish and Lon Cheney Jr. are actually good in this as Dr. Frankenstein and his henchman. This is also their final appearances in film. Zandor Vorkov is hilarious as Count Dracula and brings an ultra cheesy and awesomely bad performance that must be seen to believe. He certainly camps it up big time and is hilarious to watch. The rest of the cast is real bad and very funny as well. This cult classic combines (then contemporary) hippie and biker culture and still tries to sell this as a Gothic horror picture. Dracula AD this is not, or a good a cohesive film it isn't either. Al Adamson was a terrible film maker and like the rest of the films of his I have seen, they are of similar quality. However, this garbage does have an appeal. It has a modern remastered DVD and is more memorable and entertaining than a whole lot of stuff.
