Jul 10 12 10:28 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Jack Hunter, who edited House of Horror - The Complete Hammer Films Story, included this plot synopsis for the ending of Dracula A.D. 1972: "Dracula's attempted revenge on young Jessica Van Helsing...is thwarted by Lorrimer, and the two long-standing enemies face each other in a gruesome, effective climactic showdown during which Dracula is pinioned by the spoke of an old cartwheel." Well, that's actually from the flashback that begins the film. The actual climax of the film is nowhere near as exciting. Another case where you have to wonder if the author of the book even saw the film he was discussing.

I was curious enough to check out one of Tyler's seminal works, Classics of the Foreign Film and there, to my horror, was a full-length chapter devoted to George Pal's TIME MACHINE. A classic British film, according to the author. A common mistake, Britain's TV GUIDE, Radio Times' film lsitings always say UK/US. And it has quite a British feel.
