Viewing Notes

Finally a Terror in the Aisles event for this year, a Christopher Lee triple feature event!

Kicked off with this classic, which I don’t think I’ve seen before. Weird because I always thought I had seen this movie (perhaps when I was a child and I just forgot). Didn’t recall anything in the film so maybe this was the first time. Pretty cool to see on the big screen with a good crowd. Maybe the most serious of Lee’s Dracula films with a great performance by Peter Cushing.
