Show notes
Episode 1 - We compare and contrast 1931's Dracula starring Bela Lugosi to 1931's Dracula starring Carlos Villarías. You see, when Tod Browning and co. departed Universal Studios every day, another crew took over and shot a Spanish-language version of the same script on the same sets. One movie is longer, shot better and arguably fairly daring for its era. The other has Bela Lugosi. Who wins...?
