Book Presentation:
Gary D. Rhodes guides a ghostly ship through the bayous and backwaters of Louisiana, casting his lantern's light on the vampires of Universal's 1943 classic Son of Dracula. Also illuminated are the film's production history and its original script. Unmoored from the errors of the past, Rhodes, Tom Weaver, Robert Guffey and Robert J. Kiss do that research voodoo that they do so well.
"An engaging, thoroughly researched and accessible book that will appeal to film researchers and fans alike. Son of Dracula is finally receiving the attention it deserves."
- Dr. Alison Peirse, After Dracula: The 1930s Horror Film
"This is the ultimate tribute to Son of Dracula, an underrated jewel in Universal's 1940s horror pantheon: a reproduction of director Robert Siodmak's annotated script, plus some superb bonuses. Sink y9our fangs into it now!"
- Steve Kronenberg, Universal Terrors 1951 - 1955
Contains the script, production history, fun facts, the pressbook, and essays by Robet Siodmak and Curt Siodmak.
