But for me, Christopher Lee will always be the quintessential Prince of Darkness, in the Hammer film, “Horror of Dracula” from 1958. He was both sexy and scary. His interpretation was also closer to character that was portrayed in the novel by Bram Stoker. Lee was my favorite Dracula, in the same way that Sean Connery will always be my favorite James Bond, and Mike Henry, my favorite Tarzan. (Gordon Scott is a close second).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
