Another Lugosi movie I've never seen before. This one is from 1933, and he plays a menacing murderer in a turbine. I bet Bela Lugosi would have been a great comedian.

Black Baal

Time for a black triple IPA from Belgium that's at least five years old? Hell yeah! Reminds me of an aged port with hints of raspberry and soy sauce. There's a sweetness that fades and leaves an alkaline minerality on the plate. Good, but past its prime.

In 1979 Universal produced their second film based on Bram Stoker's Dracula, starring Frank Langella as the King of Suck and the first Dracula that had a hairdresser. But Edward Gorey contributed to the sets and that means it's required watching.
