On Wednesday, April 30, the world premiere of Doctor Mabuse: Etiopomar will be held at the historic Vista Theatre in Hollywood as part of a double feature celebrating the 40th anniversary of Dark Shadows creator Dan Curtis' Dracula in a newly-restored print. Guests from both films will be in attendance to sign autographs and meet fans.
Doctor Mabuse: Etiopomar is a new independent film starring Dark Shadows actors, following on from last year's Doctor Mabuse. Jerry Lacy (Reverend Trask) reprises his role as the mysterious title character, alongside Lara Parker (Angelique) and Kathryn Leigh Scott (Maggie Evans) as supernatural sisters and Christopher Pennock (Jeb Hawkes) as a new nemesis.

Shot on location in Yugoslavia and England, the film includes an atmospheric music score by composer Dark Shadows composer Robert Cobert, who turns 90 this year. Cobert will attend the April 30 event and sign copies of the new CD of his Dracula soundtrack music, along with the Blu-Ray release of the film.Doors open at 6.15pm, with the actors signing in the lobby, where a selection of merchandise will be available. A charity auction of special Dark Shadows memorabilia will be held at 7.30pm, before Doctor Mabuse: Etiopomar is screened at 8.00pm. Afterwards director/writer Ansel Faraj and cast will take part in a question-and-answer session, before Dracula is screened at 10.00pm.

That's gonna be yet another very eerie "creepy" and very special Occasion with some of the legendary Cast of DARK SHADOWS. They look totally-sharp dressed in eerie shadows: Parker (Angelique, Miranda), Leigh-Scott (Maggie, Rachel, Josette, Kitty), Lacy (Rev. Trask) and Pennock (JEB/Cyrus & Yaegar, etc.,.) Have a grand time DS's Stars and guests at the Doctor Mabuse and Dracula Movie Screenings. Frightening!!
saw the first film and would see
the second, yes indeed, quite a cast
don't miss it!!!!
Stuart, Have the actors confirmed their attendance at the Mabuse/Dracula screening? I would like to know who will be there. Thank you
As far as I am aware, everyone announced previously is still set to attend.
Dan Curtis's Dracula is 1 of the best ever made and can't wait to add both Dr. Mabuse movies to my Dark Shadows associated collection (A Darkness At Blaisedon etc.)and very glad Mr. Pennock is in the 2nd movie and hopefully more, his 2 interviews in the dvd set are great, liked all his characters especially Gabriel Collins.
