Product description

Product Description

Six episodes of cartoon comedy from the vegetarian vampire duck. In 'No Sax Please We're Egyptian', Duckula travels to Egypt in search of the Golden Saxophone. 'Vampire Vacation' sees Duckula visiting his cousin Diego in Spain, and does a bit of bullfighting. In 'One Stormy Night', Doctor Von Goosewing sneaks into Castle Dracula and builds a robot monster to defeat poor Duckula. In 'Transylvanian Homesick Blues', Duckula goes time travelling with Igor and Nanny, and ends up stuck in the middle of the French Revolution. 'Restoration Comedy' sees Duckula's domestic staff going on strike when the duck decides to re-vamp his castle. In 'The Mutinous Penguins', Duckula and his chums set off in search of their missing home, but end up stranded in the Arctic with a group of slumbering vikings!

In the heart of Transylvania, in the vampire hall of fame...

ByAmazon Customeron 28 March 2002

Format: DVD

I purchased this DVD for my younger sister's 18th birthday and what a nostalgia trip it turned out to be! I remembered how much I loved this cartoon and Cosgrove Hall when I was younger and it really did bring me back to my cildhood.
You get six episodes from the first series, there aren't any extras but that doesn't really matter. The animation quality is excellent, as are the voices provided by the talented David Jason, Brian Truman, and the late Jack May.
Throughout the various episodes, Duckula goes on vacation to visit his family in Spain (and ends up fighting a viscious bull!), does some adventuring in Egypt, attempts to get his gloomy castle decorated by a Laurence Lwellyen-Bow type (including Hall of Mirrors), does some time-travel and gets chased by a ressurected Duckula! All the silly gags add to the fun, and don't forget the great narrator! Goodnight out there... whatever you are!!!
A MUST HAVE for all Cosgrove Hall fans and big kids alike! :)

Essence of Blood

ByAmazon Customeron 6 April 2005

Format: DVD

As a child of the 80's we were granted many of the great cartoons ever. For instance Thundercats, He-man, Dangermouse and of course the great Count Duckula! This cartoon brings me back to my childhood. When i found out that you could get Count Duckula on DVD, I hit the roof! I was so excited that they decided to ditribute it and I have now a copy in my hands. The animation, the voices, just the whole ambience of the cartoon is a treasure and I have passed on the bug to my younger siblings who missed the original runs and they love it too. If you want to have something to give you a throwback to the eighties, purchace this! You will not regret it! Even if it is to watch the idiosity that is nanny or the sarcasm of Igor!

Ain't no pond duck!

ByA customeron 30 January 2004

Format: DVD

Ever since I rented some Duckula videos from a video store when I was about 5, I have been addicted to Count Duckula, Nanny and Igor as they get into hilarious adventures. When I was about 7, I went back to the same video store to rent it again, but, unfortunately, they said they had sold it! And boy did I cry(I was only 7!),and have spent quite a few years looking on loads of different sites to purchase it. I finally found this site and was so happy that Amazon had got it in stock, I bought it straight away. From the depts of the hot Egyptian Pyramids, to the freezing waste-lands of the Antarctic, these 6 episodes are truly some of the finest ones of Count Duckula. I have purchased other things from Amazon, but this is probably one of the best! Trust me, if you ain't got a sense of humor, this isn't for you!

Ducktastic

ByRichard Dalbyon 11 July 2003

Format: DVD

Whilst looking for dvd's of cartoons i used to watch as a child i came accross this gem! It's as good now as it ever was. The laughs just came flooding back. The wit, the humour and the knowledge all still with this cartoon. I can't believe they stopped showing it. Now all i've got to do is wait for the producers to make another dvd for me to buy.
For anyone who hasn't seen Count Duckula before it's worthwhile watching it, it's got the same style humour as Dangermouse so if you're a fan of that then you're bound to be a fan of this.

Pure Nostalgia

ByA customeron 23 June 2001

Format: VHS Tape

Brilliant. I grew up laughing at the antics of Count Duckula, Igor and Nanny and bought the video for nostalgic reasons. Being 22, I now appreciate the subtle quips of Igor and Nanny's misunderstandings. It certainly brought back memories of the coffin transporter with disco lights, the talking vampire cuckoo clock and Dr. Von Goosewing, 'the vampire vanquisher'. I even managed to sing along with the song at the end! 3 great episodes I recommend to any child of the 80s.

Naannny!! Ye-es, Duckyboos...?

ByA customeron 19 March 2005

Format: DVD

I adored this cartoon when I was little, and still do now. It has a wonderfully dark sense of humour, but not too dark for the kids.
A huge craggy Transylvanian Castle that can teleport anywhere in the world it's master wants it to, a wonderfully dry butler, a dotty chicken of a housemaid, a brainy-yet-brainless vampire hunter, slapstick, wit, the macabre, and to top it all; a vegetarian vampire duck who's scared of his own shadow!
Fantastic! :oD

Duckula's back from the undead!

ByA customeron 2 October 2001

Format: VHS Tape

I should really be too old for cartoons now but This one's special.A Vegetarian Vampire Duck?! Three very funny episodes featuring other brilliant characters besides the main stars - the Crow brothers, Duckula's Pyromaniac cousin Don Diego, and scheming Statula - and even at twenty they still make me laugh! This cartoon's brilliant for all ages - Re-release MORE Duckula videos please!!
