Count Yorga does have a grittiness to it that's sooo 1970s. Part drive-in, part cheap film stock, part low budget. Still memorable and effective.

Ahh yes, good old Michael Pataki. This one has some nice touches, particularly that graveyard opener, but I think overall I enjoy COUNT YORGA a little more for delivering the creepy 70's vampire kitsch.
Now if there was a YORGA VS. CROFT movie, I'd pay to see that!
