For this week's Profile in Cinemania, Scrutinizer Zacharia plays us a cassette on Hollywood's King of Terror, Bela Lugosi, the man the world knew as "Dracula." Lugosi was a complex and tragic man who fought fascists in Hungary and Weimar Germany; and after achieving fame in America, used his public platform to do some real good in the world while fighting his own private battles. Aside from creating the stereotype of the vampire we all know and love today, he was also responsible for organizing the world's first film actor's union in his native Hungary, and later, helped found the Screen Actors Guild.
