  • From deep in our KTTV archives we present the story of a man who we all came to know as a Monster. He was a family man. A proud actor. And, like many of us at different times in our lives, a man fighting his own demons even though he was Count Dracula! Dracula -- a creature conjured up by author Bram Stoker, but, brought to life by Bela Lugosi.

    2:26 My 26 year old ass can't do a push up like that. I'm being shamed by a 70+ year old Bela Lugosi. It's great to see him smiling so much here. I wish he could have lived longer to see his legacy appreciated and suffered less pain in life.

      I thought the same thing! 😅 I'm so full of respect for this brave brave man and great actor.
      I think Hollywood didn't let him to show full of his potential, after all in Hungary he played practically every type of role.

      Bela Lugosi was a neat person. I had read he was wounded in WWI fighting the Russians. He received a medal for that and he also help pull another soldier from the battlefield under fire. Hollywood should have given him more roles to play.
      I saw a photo of Bela ,as Jesus, from an old Hungarian play. He looked very good.

    Bela Jr looks more like his dad now than he did earlier in life....

      If you look at old pictures of Bela, like when he was in his 20's and 30's, they look very similar.

    Thank you so very much for publishing this file featuring a private side of Bela Lugosi. I have been a Lugosi devotee since I was a child 60 years ago, laying on our living room floor watching every Dracula movie that was broadcast. Since the Internet came into being, I have done a lot of research on Bela
    and learned that he indeed was quite a serious actor back in his homeland - I saw a photograph of him in which he portrayed Jesus Christ in a play in professional theatre when he was quite young, and I would love to have seen him in that role, for the photograph of him as Jesus was impressive. It is very important to keep his legacy alive today so he will not be forgotten. He was and is the quintessential Count Dracula and there is only one other actor who comes in second after Bela to portraying Count Dracula, and that is Gary Oldman. I believe Bela would love Gary's portrayal. Thank you KTTV in Los Angeles, for
    saving this important film, and for knowing how worthy it was to publish it here to honor Bela Lugosi. And thank you, Bela; for your portrayal of Count Dracula that delighted me as a child and still today. 🎭📽

    Christopher Lee was the best actor to portray Dracula by miles.

      I don't know what it has to do with your liking Christopher Lee and this video that is dedicated to the great Bela Lugosi and not your Lee, and Bela is the best

      > Tony Last Bela Lugosi was and is the quintessential Count Dracula - and Gary Oldman comes second after Bela. Christopher Lee did do a good Count Dracula and is an exceptional actor indeed - but Bela Lugosi holds first place for the best portrayal of Count Dracula specifically.
