This is one of those "humorous" shorts from Night Gallery that really falls flat. Not all of them were bad and they were meant as nothing more than quick time fillers. But this one is a real groaner.
I guess what bugs me the most about this one is that the establishing shot of the castle, and the Vampire Hunters approach and then the opening of the coffin lid. All of this is made to pound the fact in that these guys are going to kill a Vampire.
And then it is all over within a second.
Ah well, I still love Night Gallery. Although as for the short humorous bits my favorites are "Mrs Lovecraft sent me" and "Junior".
