“Transylvania, land of dark forests, dread mountains and black, unfathomed lakes. Still the home of magic and devilry as the nineteenth century draws to it’s close. Count Dracula, monarch of all vampires, is dead, but his disciples live on, to spread the cult and corrupt the world.” The Brides of Dracula, Terence Fisher’s sumptuous followup to Horror of Dracula, remains one of the most visually striking, atmospheric and memorable in the Hammer Films canon, featuring stunning use of color and breathtaking set design. When a young schoolteacher encounters a strange, handsome man in his family’s castle, only Peter Cushing’s Van Helsing can help.
