Arise Sir Dracula....its long overdue.

If you read my review on Hammers Devil Rides Out....then you'll know I am a long standing Christopher Lee fan....I as a kid growing up thru the 60's and 70's adored all Hammer Horror films, not only because they were stylish, atmospheric and real class A movies,but because you have the likes of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing giving you the acting of their lives.

And now today 13/06/09 we have at last recognition for one of horrors greatest ever, Sir Christopher Lee, 87 years old and still acting. In my opinion, one of the most long overdue knighthoods that should have been given at least 20 yrs ago and I may say that his arch rival in many horror films Peter Cushing deserved a knighthood as well,even though its way too late for Peter Cushing, it would recognise the fact that Hammer horror films and the actors that played those most pivotal roles, was a very special era for us that grew up with Hammer.

So congratulations to Sir Christopher Lee, it is richly deserved...:-)..Sorry this is not really a review about Dracula...but give me time and I will.
