The Return of Count Yorga (1971) - Newspaper Ad [San Francisco Examiner]

August 17, 1971

One of the more memorable Creature Features viewing experiences of my youth. While not the greatest of vampiric cinematic achievements, The Return of Count Yorga did lodge a fistful of genuinely unsettling and creepy moments in my memory. 

The film's female lead was none other than Mariette Hartley, who has been a ubiquitous presence on television programming and movie screens from the 1960s up through 2024. Future Poltergeist and Coach star Craig T. Nelson also had a small part in the film. As did future screenwriter and frequent Mel Brooks collaborator Rudy De Luca.

If you have not seen this, I recommend you do so.
