Review of Dracula: Prince of Darkness (1966) by Ashley B — 12 Jul 2008
For my money a superior film to Hammer's (still great) 1958 (HORROR OF) DRACULA. Christopher Lee has simply never been more frightening than he is here as the silent bloodsucker (you'd think watching a movie in which Christopher Lee never speaks would be a disapointment, but Lee is still superb) and Terrence Fisher's direction is (as always) flawless.
PRINCE OF DARKNESS also has a much darker feel than the adventurous, somewhat innocent 58 film.
A classic!
