Frederick Bergstrom is an unknown quantity at this point
to go a step further on what lord summerisle had said about the emotional blackmail....a lot of these films were sold to american distributors with Christopher Lee already on board so his back was against the wall. He didnt want to do the sequels but he knew if he didnt the films wouldnt get the american distribution and if it came down to no Chris Lee no movie a lot of his commrades at Hammer would be out of work.He would tell them i dont want to do it and would be told you have to I already sold it to the U.S, with you as the star.Personally Im glad he did them they all hold a place in my heart. I know he would have been happy to have never played him again unless it was just as Stroker had written
