Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

Of Dracula? Yeah, I know. But it's so PRETTY.

Yeah, Christopher Lee or Frank Langella are my favorite Draculas. Bela is a classic, but I find Lee or Langella more compelling.
DISCO DRACULA!
Next week, I am going to kick you in the ankles for this.

Bela is far more compelling as a character in his own right than he is as Dracula.
Next week, I am going to kick you in the ankles for this.
YAY!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The Langella Dracula was the first one I saw in a theater.
And it was based on the Broadway version (with Gorey set designs) that I later saw starring Raul Julia (pretty hot).
I didn't see the Lugosi or Hammer/Lee versions until much later so my first vampires in order were:
Frank Langella
Raul Julia
Chris Sarandon (Fright Night)
Grace Jones (Vamps)

Gaaah, gratuitous spider scene! Not needed, dammit!

I don't think there are words to properly express my envy about you getting to see that.

1979, baybee! My first trip to NYC and my first Broadway show.
I bet Scrappy saw that production.
I gotta tell you, when the first act ends with Raul coming through those French doors and scooping her up, there was an absolute panic of sexual tension swirling through the theater.
People were just fanning themselves with their Playbills at intermission.

Well, YES. This does not surprise me.
I have the big (original printing!) Edward Gorey toy theatre book for Dracula, thanks to Ginger!
