Movie Reviews of Dracula - The Legacy Collection (Dracula / Dracula (1931 Spanish Version) / Dracula's Daughter / Son of Dracula / House of Dracula)

Movie Review: Fun But Flawed
Summary: 4 Stars

Dracula - The Legacy Collection brings you some of the best of Universal's vampire films.
As with the other sets in this series, Universal took the cheap way and used a double-sided disk for the second disk.
On to the films...
Dracula - the classic iconic representation of the vampire. Bela is great in this somewhat stagey yet effective production. Unfortunately the print used was scratchy and the digital transfer was very poor. It's odd that of all the films on this set only the original was in such poor condition. I found the "extra" Philip Glass score intrusive and overdone, destroying the eerie atmosphere of the film.
Dracula (1931 Spanish Version) - Interesting as a curiosity and in some ways technically superior to the Lugosi version. Thank heaven for the optional subtitles. Good print and a good digital transfer.
Dracula's Daughter - Seldom seen but enjoyable film. Gloria Holden gives a good performance as the tortured daughter of the Count. Irving Pichel stands out as her very creepy manservant. An interesting tale with just the slightest undertone of lesbianism. Good print and good transfer on this entry.
Son of Dracula - Goofy but fun film featuring Lon Chaney Jr. as Count Alucard. Poor performances by all concerned and a ludicrous plot make this film enjoyable for its camp value. Good print and good transfer on this entry.
House of Dracula - John Carradine is the immortal Count in this one and he meets up with the Wolfman, Frankenstein's Monster, a hunchback and a mad scientist. Lots of milling around and silliness. Again, a good print and digital transfer.
Bonus Extras - One promoting the then-current "Van Helsing" (not so good) and another about Bela and Dracula (pretty good).
