3.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly decent movie, November 20, 2000

When I was a kid, I used to watch the Super Scary movies every Saturday night, at 11:30 p.m., and when this one came up, I had no idea that it was taking place out in the Old West.

I stayed up and watched it and was surprised that they put together a decent story about a vampire stalking a ranch. Years later, when it came on the Sci-Fi channel, I thought enough of it to tape it and add it to my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Curse of the Undead (1959), April 20, 2002

Great horror film (also known as "Mark of the West) coming at the end of Universal's Horror/Scifi period. There are no giant bats, howling dogs, torch bearing villagers or black capes in this unique vampire tale. There is, however, an eerie, hair rising score by Irvin Gertz and a nontraditional background for a horror film. Taking place in the old, wild west we are introduced to a vampire, played by Michael Pate, who can walk around bathed in the full strength of the sun (without erupting into flames) and only uses a coffin for those occasional naps.

I have had this old movie in my vhs vault for a while and it is one of my favorite old horror movies. It is akin to Billy the Kid vs. Dracula in that it is a Vampire / Western. They didn't make too many of those at any time in movie history but these two were great. The Acting is par for this kind of movie as is the plot. Unlike Billy the Kid vs. Dracula the vampire in this one is a quick draw gunslinger who isn't too worried even if he does get shot because hey, He's a vampire! What better life could there be in the old west. His eyesight isn't too good in the day though. This movie comes from a great moment in movie history when actors actually had to act because they didn't have 50 million dollars worth of CGI's or special effects. Great Movie.
