Producers had a foolproof way to talk Christopher Lee into yet another Dracula sequel. Any "no" from him would cost dozens of cast and crew their paychecks. How many times did Christopher Lee (reluctantly) play Dracula?

Correct Answer: 10
(Source)"I am the apocalypse" was one of the lines Lee was offered for Dracula, which tells you what kind of writing he was up against. Still, he played Dracula four times in 1970 alone. Over eighteen years, he made seven films with Hammer Film Productions, moonlighted in two European films, and squeezed in a half-minute Jerry Lewis cameo for good measure. The only apocalypse was the writing, and maybe his sanity.
