DRUNK CINEMA 068: "Horror of Dracula" Is Up!

 
"Is there no other way? It's horrible."
"Please try and understand this is not Lucy, the sister you loved. It's only a shell possessed and corrupted by the evil of Dracula. To liberate her soul and give her peace, we must destroy that shell for all time. Believe me, there is no other way."
-- Arthur Holmwood and Dr. Van Helsing, Horror of Dracula

Hello again, movie fans!  My wonderful co-host Xan Sprouse and I are back with a new episode of Drunk Cinema! This time, we're watching Horror of Draculathe 1958 gothic horror film directed by Terence Fisher, starring Christopher Lee as Count Dracula, Peter Cushing as Dr. Van Helsing, Michael Gough as Arthur Holmwood, and Melissa Stribling as Mina Holmwood!
