My five favorite Christopher Lee horror film performances:
1. HORROR OF DRACULA (1958): Lee's first outing as the Count was a game changer. There hadn't been a movie monster like him until then--one can only imagine the effect this had on late 50s film audiences. Lee's Dracula is still scary e read more

My five favorite Bela Lugosi horror film performances:1. WHITE ZOMBIE (1932): No, Dracula isn't on the top of this list.
