This good vampire adventure from Hammer features Janson as the title character, who wields a mean sword to dispatch all manner of villains, including the nasty blood imbibers. With the aid of his loyal sidekick, the hunchbacked professor Cater, wagon driver Carson, and the lovely Munro, Kronos tackles an elderly vampire woman, whose drink of choice maintains her youthful appearance. The film was written and directed by Clemens, who wrote many of the best episodes of the popular "Avengers" television series. Fast-paced and with a good sense of humor, CAPTAIN KRONOS was shot in 1972 but was not released until 1974, when it unfortunately received double billing with the disastrous FRANKENSTEIN AND THE MONSTER FROM HELL (1974). Both films failed miserably. leave a comment
