I am in mourning after hearing that my favourite childhood funny-man Leslie Nielson died yesterday from pneumonia. I can't really imagine a child hood without Frank Drebbin. I think my local video shop still holds a massive grudge against me because I would repeatedly hire out the Naked Gun trilogy.
My favourite film of his is Dracula Dead & Loving it. I think it used to be played on channel 10 like all the time. Dracula Dead & Loving it, is a classic Mel Brooks spoof that pokes fun at Bram Stoker's novel, Dracula. The movie did pretty badly at the box office but received more of a following after it hit vintage VHS. If you can't remember it, look it up on YouTube and I'm sure you'll get those warm feelings of nostalgia (kind of like when you watch old ABC kid shows)
rasbwehhh!
