Posted by jseligmann on Tuesday October 20, 2009 at 8:01 PMThe movie "Dracula" was released on February 14, 1931.
The movie "Frankenstein" was released on November 21, 1931.
Both movies featured the horror-movie lead actors of the day: Boris Karloff played Frankenstein's monster, and Bela Lugosi played Dracula.
One of the all-time best internet resources for movie information is the International Movie Data Base. It is an excellent source of information regarding the director, writer(s), release date, genre, plot, etc.
Also, there are links to film clips and/or trailers for almost all films in the database. You can also join the site for free and read and write comments on a vast number of films.
Is it just coincidental that Dracula, the story of a blood-sucking vampire, was released on Valentine's Day?
