Matt Brunson Film Frenzy John Carradine frequently stated in interviews that his worst film by far was Billy the Kid vs. Dracula. There are certainly plenty of candidates -- I personally would opt for 1969's Blood of Dracula's Castle -- but his point is well taken. Rated: 1.5/4 Sep 8, 2019 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews To get into this flick one not only has to suspend one's disbelief, but one's sense of judgment and taste.

DanTheMan 2 With a title like Billy the Kid Versus Dracula, how could your curiosity not be piqued? It's complete nonsense and just as ridiculous as it sounds, one you'll have to suspend not only your disbelief but also your sense of judgment and taste as the combination of elements doesn't make a modicum of sense. The film certainly looks the part of a made-for-TV western, even down to the poorly staged fisticuffs, random gunfights, stock performances and locked-down photography, all made in combination with a cheap horror movie. Ignoring the flagrant continuity errors, visible wires and obvious Carradine doubles, I can at least give some credit to the passable musical score by Raoul Kraushaar and the film's use of colour, but this is simply laughable, thank god it was over just as quickly as it began. Although it was worth the price of admission to see John Carradine smacked across the face with a colt after having 6 rounds emptied into him, that got the biggest laugh out of me but the fact that someone green-lighted this movie is the most horrifying thing. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/14/24 Full Review Audience Member Hear me out~ this film may have more plot holes than there are gaps in a fishnet, but that's what makes it SO GOOD! If you want to cringe at some ‘60s horror~ check out this movie's cardboard bat, bullet physics, and hilarious, hypnotic stares. Billy the kid vs. Dracula is really, really bad, but it's really, really good because of it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member worth a look to see the gr8 john carridine play dracula Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member How come the bullets couldn't harm Dracula but throwing the pistol and him knocked him out? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Originally shown as a double bill with "Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter" this equal silly waster/Universal Horror mash-up is slightly better, mostly because you have John Carradine on board as Count Dracula, hamming it up as only her can. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member David Carradine as the count is pretty much the only saving grace for this film outside of its obvious campiness...but make no mistake, this is a bad bad movie.
