Pure Garbage!

Rating: 2/10 (30 March 2000)

As a Bela Lugosi film collector, I HAD to see this film...... and what I saw angered me to NO END!!!!! I have every Lugosi film except for 5 (the rarest of the rare!) and know quite a LOT about his life.
Tim Burton depicted him as a bumbling simpleton, which really got me angry! Lugosi's latter years were NOTHING like Burton depicts them, and he should be ashamed for his treatment of this Great Actor!
I'm told that Bela Lugosi, Jr. didn't like it very much, either, and attempted to sue Burton.....it's a shame he didn't win his lawsuit.
Mr. Burton, you will be forgotten in 5-10 years from now -- but Bela Lugosi will Live FOREVER!!!!!
Norm (PS Tim Burton is JUST AS LOUSY a "filmaker" as Ed Wood! What a MISFIT!
