I still can't decide what I'm doing - I keep changing my mind!

(Oh, btw, did I say that I finished the 1977 Count Dracula; it was very lovely and I didn't want it to end. I laughed a lot in the crypt, though, mainly imagining 1968 Dr Seward being told they were going to cut off Lucy's head. Also later with the blood spurting. He got upset enough when Van Helsing was mean to the flowers! Anyway, I'm glad you gave me the incentive to pick iot up befoer it went randomly expensive one day or something.)

I know what that's like. I've just managed to resist all urges in regards to trading anything out for something else at the last second.

No problem, glad you enjoyed it! And I thought of that upon a rewatch. The '68 Seward would have had issues seeing any sort of decapitation of Lucy's vampire self. So either lead him out of there, or give him more flowers to tear up as a distraction from total horrified collapse.

I always liked the fact that in the '77 version, Jonathan's reaction to seeing Dracula climbing down the castle wall like a lizard is to just...fling himself upon his bed, while helplessly sobbing Mina's name. He would have loved to talk with the '68 version of Seward.

I don't think any amount of flowers would have prevented a collapse if their had been blood and decapitation! I fear that starting with the 1968 has made me incapable of not laughing during the crypt scene. In the book, Dr Seward was narrating and going on about how it was easier for him to deal with because he was a doctor, and I was sniggering. (Not in the 1968 version, Dr Seward! Sorry.)

Dealing with vampires is hard! Not everybody can cope. Some of us are mere snowflakes.
