Classic Hammer horror starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Jonathan Harker (John Van Eyssen) journeys to Castle Dracula, where he is turned into one of the undead by the famous vampire (Lee).

Lee and Cushing went on to make several more 'Dracula' films for Hammer.

The career of towering, handsome actor Christopher Lee has stretched over half a century in every sort of film from comedy to horror. He has assumed such diverse roles as the Man With the Golden Gun, Frankenstein's monster, Fu Manchu, Sherlock Holmes, and Dr. Catheter (from ""Gremlins 2""). From ""Corridor of Mirrors"" in 1948 to ""Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones"" in 2002, this reference book covers 166 of Lee's theatrical feature films in detail. Each entry provides all production information (including year of release, studio, running time, and location), full credits for cast and crew, a synopsis of the film, and a critical analysis of the film and Lee's involvement, with a detailed account of its making and commentary drawn from some thirty hours of interviews with Lee himself. Each entry also places the film within the context of Lee's career and discusses the director and other significant figures. Two appendices list Lee's television feature films and miniseries and Lee's short films, with brief credits and Lee's role in each. The work concludes with an afterword by Christopher Lee. Photographs from the actor's private collection are included in the title.

Four Incredible, critically-acclaimed novels of espionage and adventure by Jimmy Sangster...two featuring ex-spy John Smith and two featuring secret agent Katy Touchfeather "There's nothing ordinary about this. It's big league intrigue." Kirkus Reviews THE SPY KILLER Ex-British spy John Smith is nearly broke, has bad teeth, is lousy in bed, and drinks too much. But he's no fool...and underestimating him would be a fatal mistake. He blackmailed his way out of the secret service years ago and is barely making a living as a London private eye when his ex-wife comes calling and asks him to follow her philandering husband. But that all-too-common job leads to him a deadly web of international espionage, betrayal, and killing. "An exquisite series launch. A tight and often violent tale of intrigue. Spy fiction fans will revel in this dark, witty story." Publishers Weekly "Very astutely plotted, with many surprising twists and a sharp bite" The New York Times This novel was adapted into a feature film starring Robert Horton, Jill St. John and Sebastian Cabot. FOREIGN EXCHANGE Ex-British spy John Smith blackmailed his way out of the secret service years ago and is content barely scraping by as a private eye. But then his manipulative and totally untrustworthy ex-spy master offers him a lucrative payday to participate in high-risk operation on the other side of the Iron Curtain...or face involuntary commitment to an insane asylum if he refuses. "Breathlessly paced, wickedly funny, with a naughty, but hilarious climax." St. Louis Post-Dispatch "With sexy foreplay & an intriguing plot, FOREIGN EXCHANGE is one of the best kept secrets of the spy genre." Paperback Warrior This novel was also adapted into a feature film starring Robert Horton, Jill St. John and Sebastian Cabot. TOUCHFEATHER It's 1970. Katy Touchfeather is a fun-loving, British spy with a cheeky attitude and lethal skills...and working undercover as a stewardess for an international airline. Katy is assigned to track down a scientist suspected of selling secrets to the Russians. It's a high-stakes, global escapade that could cost Katy her life. "Bubbly, irrepressible... drawn by her breezy, chatty first-person narrative, readers will cheer Katy on as she skates around with flamboyant grace." Publishers Weekly "Sangster's novel may seem like a satire to the uninitiated. But it only takes a few opening pages to realize that it is a genuine spy novel - with a unique, and noticeably unusual female perspective. TOUCHFEATHER presents an entertaining and refreshingly different take on the male-dominated world of spy fiction." Bookgasm "Exhilarating...it's a winner!" Irish Times TOUCHFEATHER, TOO Katy's assignment is to bring down what appears to be a gold smuggling operation...but it's something far worse and much deadlier. "Jolly & Preposterous Intrigue." New York Times"A clever, high-spirited story." Times Literary Supplement (London)
