Love to listen to Lee, he calls 'em as he sees 'em. I don't always agree with him, but I treasure his opinions & insights into his work and his colleagues.

He says the Deadly Necklace had the best Baker St. set he's ever seen... I HAVE to experience that.

Fisher´s style is very close to Hitchcock what is quite amazing as Hitchcock did plan every single shot in advance and Fisher came to the set not knowing what he will do and first letting the actors show what they will do. Hitchcock as far as the acting is concerned worked the same way, the actors were free to play their parts and Hitchcock did not even give them directions. And they both had a very good sense how to creat suspense. The scene in Frankenstein must be destroyed when Veronica Carlson is alone and the dead body in the garden that´s the kind of suspense both of them used to perfection. They shot in a totally different way but their movies looked very similar as far as suspense and beautiful shots are concerned. I don´t believe remakes but I would have loved to have seen Fisher and Hitchcock doing their own version of Rosemary´s Baby.

Rosemary's Baby should never have been remade. That's blasmephy! Never remake a classic. Unfortunately nowadays remakes and reboots are the big thing. Universal and Hammer films-as Lee pointed out-never allowed special effects to takeover the film. Today horror films are two hours C.G.I. effects!

Why did he always put down Count Dracula? I think that's actually better film than Horror of Dracula. But for some odd reason he considered Count Dracula his lesser film work! He was able to do more with his Dracula character in that film than he ever was allowed in the previous Dracula films. I found Horror of Dracula and Curse of Frankenstein to be rather mediocre. But the audience fell in love with the characters of Dracula and Van Helsing more than the plot.

what Lee is describing is what the military calls "command by negation" - you get to do things as you see fit, and then if the person above you disagrees they'll step in but they won't micromanage

Its baldy dude that talks or tries to steer to Terence fisher. Mr Lee is, as always, a delight.

Christopher Lee never really made to stardom exactly but was usually just a very well known character actor. Lee did three Sherlock Holmes films? Interesting.
