Christopher Lee's Dracula:The Hammer Years

[Matt Gemmell]

This is the title of an upcoming hardback book from GBU publishing ( www.gbupublishing.com )
The publicity flier reads as follows............

At last , here is a book devoted to the Hammer Dracula films which starred Christopher Lee . This limited edition hard backed book will feature in depth interviews , behind the scenes information and a wealth of illustrative material from each of the seven films which were made by Hammer .
Written with the full cooperation of Christopher Lee , whose portrayal of the infamous vampire is generally acknowledged as the most definitive of all actors who have played the role , this superbly designed book will , at last , celebrate each film in detail - something no other book has ever done before , and pay tribute to the wonderful actors and technicians who brought these gothic horror classics to the silver screen .

Well that certainly sounds good but is it all true , what can you tell us Juan ?

[Juan Aneiros]

That Mr Lee did not participate in that book in any way. But then again, any horror struck moron who sees a few films can write a Hammer book. Remember Jonathan Sothcott? or what about "Lips of Blood"?

Anyway, enough of Dracula. I'm off on Holiday and I don't want to go in a foul mood.

Thank's for the info Juan . I know what you mean about Mr Sothcott and as for Lips Of Blood..well , forget it . It annoys me when publicity men make claims like this . It's good to know that we can get reliable advice from yourself .
