BILLY THE KID VS DRACULA (1966). >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> .>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


In an interview with FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND, John Carradine considered this the worst film He ever made and "I was absolutely numb!". While BTKVD is indeed quite bad, other JC films like THE ASTRO-ZOMBIES and BIGFOOT weren't nearly as much fun. Shot in about 8 days, Dracula (who is never mentioned by name) impersonates a Ranch owner in order to victimize said owners niece who is in love with Billy The Kid, an upstanding Ranch hand.

Unintentionally funny throughout with some choice lines ("Oh God! The Vampire test!" by Virginia Christine, Mrs Olson from Folger's coffee and Ananka in THE MUMMY'S CURSE) and hammy acting throughout, with John getting top honors, particularly when he is in a stagecoach being shown a picture of the niece ("Eighteen and Beautiful? Yes, I WOULD like to see it!" and his eyes all but bugging out of his skull) while Drac's demise will just have You shaking your head in disbelief. **
