Bela Lugosi Too constrictive! I can't even fold my arms.
Gee, Mister Lugosi, I-I've never had any complaints.
Bela This is the most uncomfortable coffin I've ever been in. Your selection is quite shoddy. You are wasting my time!
Mister Lugosi, why are you buying a coffin?
Bela I'm planning on dying soon.
No!
Bela Yes. I'm embarking on another truck and bus tour of "Dracula". Twelve cities in ten days, if that's concievable.
You know, you're, you're much scarier in real life than you are in the movies.
Bela Thank you.
Bela Lugosi I refuse to drive in this country. Too many madmen.
Well... I have a car.
Boy, Mister Lugosi, you must lead such an exciting life! When is your next picture coming out?
Bela I have no next picture.
You gotta be joking. A big star like you? You must have dozens of 'em lined up.
Bela In the old days, yes. Now, no one gives two ****s for Bela.
Bela This business, this town... it chews you up and spits you out. I'm just an ex-boogeyman.
Oh, I hate it when she interrupts the picture. She doesn't show 'em the proper respect.
Bela Lugosi I think she's a honey. Look at those jugs!
Bela Lugosi You must be double-jointed. And you must be Hungarian.
Bela Lugosi Eddie, you got me a new picture, eh?
Yes. It's gonna be a great picture and you'll love your character. Have a seat. [back on phone] Listen, Bunny? Bela's here. I gotta go. Listen, work some parties, hit the bars, and get me transvestites! I need transvestites! All right. Bye. [hangs up]
Bela Eddie... what kind of a movie is this?
You know which movie of yours I love, Mister Lugosi? "The Invisible Ray". You were great as Karloff's sidekick.
Bela Lugosi Karloff? Sidekick? **** YOU! Karloff does not deserve to smell my SHIT! That Limey **** can rot in hell for all I care!
W-what happened?
Bela How dare that asshole bring up Karloff? You think it takes talent to play Frankenstein? It's all, all makeup, and-and grunting. [imitates Frankenstein] Grrr-Rrrr!
I agree, Bela. I agree a hundred percent. Now Dracula — there's a part that takes talent.
Bela, what's in the needle?
Bela Lugosi Morphine. With a Demerol chaser.
Bela Lugosi This... this live television is madness!
Bela Lugosi At Universal, we used to shoot one or two scenes a day. Eddie can knock off twenty, thirty — he's amazing!
Bela Lugosi It's a wonderful idea! We'll be at peace! In the afterlife, you don't have to worry about finding work!
OH! My goodness, you gave me the willies! You look like that Dracula guy.
Bela My name is Bela Lugosi... and I wish to commit myself.
For what reason?
Bela I have been a drug addict for twenty years. I need help.
Bela Eddie, why did you chase them?
Bela, those people are parasites! They just wanna exploit you.
Bela So what? Let them. Finally the press is interested again in Bela Lugosi. There is no such thing as bad press, Eddie. Man from New York even said he was going to put me on the front page — first celebrity ever to check into rehab.
Bela Lugosi I'm seventy, but I don't know it. When the mind is young, the spirit is still vigorous, like... [puts an arm around Ed] like a young man.
