Double Feature Friday: Dracula spoofs

Check out AWESOME-tober-fest at my other blog for a Halloween celebration. This year I'm reviewing all things Dracula!

This is an ad for a parody of Dracula starring George Hamilton as the Count. This ad is from May 1979.

This is an ad for a 1995 spoof by Mel Brooks starring Leslie Nielsen. Needless to say, it was not as successful as Young Frankenstein.

See the trailer for Love at First Bite:

Young Frankenstein - June 7, 1977

Continuing our celebration of Clue the Movie's 25th anniversary this week, here is an ad for Mel Brooks' brilliant Young Frankenstein starring Gene Wilder, Teri Garr and Madeline Kahn (Clue's Mrs White).

This is Mel Brooks' parody of the Universal Frankenstein movies.  Specifically, the movie mostly parodies the third film, Son of Frankenstein.

Interesting, this is the second movie ad I've featured that starred a Clue cast member as well as Teri Garr.  The other one was Mr Mom.
