Horror

Most recently watched by sleestakk, AllAboutSteve

Overview

Whilst vacationing in the Carpathian Mountain, two couples stumble across the remains of Count Dracula’s castle. The Count’s trusted servant kills one of the men, suspending the body over the Count’s ashes so that the blood drips from the corpse and saturates the blackened remains. The ritual is completed, the Count revived and his attentions focus on the dead man’s wife who is to become his partner; devoted to an existence of depravity and evil.

Viewing Notes

After almost 10 years, Hammer managed to get a sequel to HORROR OF DRACULA into theaters with Lee reprising his role as Dracula. The events in the film also take place 10 years after HORROR. I watched the British version (honestly can’t remember what the differences are between the versions).
