The Movies: Scream And Scream Again, Umbracle, The Bloody Judge, Count Dracula, Taste The Blood Of Dracula, One More Time, Julius Caesar, Eugenie, The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes, Scars Of Dracula How many movies did Christopher Lee make across the span of his career? 100? 150? 200? Try "more than 200," pal. And note the use of the words "more than," because nobody seems to be exactly sure how many flicks this legend produced in his time. Yes, the guy most famous for his roles as Count Dracula in Dracula and evil wizard Saruman in Lord of the Rings made so many films that they lost count. Lee, of course, is often the first name that somebody shouts out when a person asks "Which actor made the most films ever?" He probably didn't, but he has to have come close with 200, right? In 1970, then, Lee pulled off an amazing feat when - in a mere 365 days - he could be spotted in 10 separate motion pictures, including one that featured him as his most famous character, Count Dracula - and a couple of sequels, too. Amongst the remaining flicks were cheesy horror flicks such as Scream And Scream Again, and Billy Wilder's great and underrated The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes. A truly incredible feat of the filmic kind. Like this article? What do you make of these super prolific actors? Got any others to add to the list that we missed?
