Are you sure there were three The Curse of Dracula telefilms? I have only heard of The World of Dracula and Dracula '79. Although, to be fair, I believe there are several names for the two. Dracula '79 was an hour-long and combined the first four episodes, while The World of Dracula had footage from all the episodes plus added voiceovers.
There certainly could be a third telefilm, we are talking about an obscure series from 1979 and even more obscure telefilms.

Had to call in DragonBear for help on this one, my mind is so fuzzy after reading so much on this.
OKay Cliffhangers, there were three areas on cliffhangers, Secret Empire, and Stop susan williams. Under Imdb, Stop susan williams, mentions the film The girl who saved the world- that I am still looking for.
Then they get to Dracula.
Now according to them, there are 2 filmes. Dracula 79 and World of Dracula.
But then I saw the below. And I can't tell if someone ELSE is confused now.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078591/
Also Known As:
Cliffhangers: The Curse of Dracula (USA) (series title)
Dracula '79 (USA)
The World of Dracula (USA) (alternative title)
So this confuses me saying that World of Dracula and Curse of Dracula are the same title?
ARGHHHHHH
So I have WORLD Of DRACULA on its way, and Supposedly, Curse of Dracula.
Which if I put both in and they are the same might confuse me farther.
But I would like some opinions.
When you read the 2 links, do you think
1-
there are 3 films or 2?
or 1 film with two titles
I need a nap.

The are I am quoting is lower down
" THE LOVES OF DRACULA
Also made for tv, as a pilot for the thankfully short-lived series "Cliffhangers," this baby stars Michael Nouri (of "Flashdance" fame) as Dracula. You don't even need Mike and 'the bots -- this movie is hysterically bad. It features some of the all-time worst wardrobe I've ever seen, and some truly undead actresses. My favorite scene is when Dracula, trapped in a warehouse, attempts to escape the rising sun by leaping for a skylight high above. Aided by his vampiric powers, he's able to leap about twenty feet in the air, but he still misses and falls back again... and again... and again..." :bonk:

All 3 of these are edits of the series with originally with the Girl who saved
the world the only way to actually see the ending of that serial
(later I guess the entire series was run in the UK and so that's why
there are complete 2 disc and 4 disc sets of the series running
amuck in cyberspace).
And anyone who doesn't think NBC made they're money on this show
ain't paying attention.

The scene of Dracula leaping mentioned in this review is NOT in the WORLD OF DRACULA edit, so I would have to infer that LOVES OF DRACULA does differ from the earlier WORLD. In fact, WORLD only covers the first half of the installments originally run on CLIFF-HANGERS, so it sounds like LOVES may finish out the rest of the serial. I'd love to see a copy of LOVES to verify this. Best of luck running a print to earth.

I have a copy of The Curse of Dracula, which does have the scene with Drac jumping, and it does cover all the Cliffhangers segments. Now I am really confused. Maybe The World of Dracula and Dracula '79 are the same edit, which is only half the Cliffhangerrs segments while The Curse of Dracula and The Loves of Dracula are the whole shebang.
