Reviews for Dracula: Prince of Darkness
Probably Hammer's last great Dracula film %u2014 a solid, sometimes imaginative effort.
Full of the sensual mysteriousness which Hammer used to achieve so effortlessly during their long occupation of Bray Studios.
The least effective Hammer horror film featuring Christopher Lee as the fly-by-night Count.
