A History of Horror John Carpenter, Sara Karloff, Gloria Stuart, Carla Laemmle, Donnie Dunagan, and Sheila Wynn (Lugosi's co-star in a 1951 Dracula tour). The second episode focuses on the British Hammer Films of the 1950s and 1960s, which inspired Gatiss' childhood passion for horror. He meets key figures from Hammer to discuss the series of Frankenstein and Dracula films which made stars of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, both of whom Gatiss argues are underrated talents. He also identifies a short-lived subgenre of British folk horror drawing on paganism and folklore, including "Witchfinder General" (1968), his personal favourite "Blood on Satan's Claw" (1970)
Anno Dracula series delayed, until its eventual release in September 2013. Francis Ford Coppola is making the film for which he will always be remembered—an adaptation of "Dracula" starring Marlon Brando as Dracula and Martin Sheen as Jonathan Harker. (It is a variation of "Apocalypse Now", complete with all the famous quotes and mishaps during filming, albeit in Romania instead of the Philippines.) The film crew is befriended by a young-looking vampire, who leaves with them when they return to America. "Coppola's Dracula" won the International Horror Guild Award for Best Long Fiction, and was nominated for the Bram Stoker Award for Best
