Cult/ Dracula

Dracula, or The Horror of Dracula as it was known in the USA, is seen by many as the film that consolidated Britain’s Hammer Film Production’s reputation as the ‘house of horror’.

Directed with an eye for detail by Terence Fisher and dripping in gothic atmosphere, the film offered Christopher Lee, a Rank charm school ‘graduate’, the role that he would become most associated with for the rest of his career: the suave and seductive Count Dracula.
