The Brides of Dracula

Horror

A young teacher on her way to a position in Transylvania helps a young man escape the shackles his mother has put on him. In so doing she innocently unleashes the horrors of the undead once again on the populace, including those at her school for ladies. Luckily for some, Dr Van Helsing is already on his way.

Note : Some more Hammer horror again, filling a gap in the Dracula series. I'd skipped this one before because it doesn't have Christopher Lee in it (in fact, this Dracula film may contain little to no Dracula at all), but it's not bad, if you like the earlier Hammer films, with slightly less sex appeal and more gothic stylings. Fisher's direction is solid as usual, Peter Cushing puts in good work, the rest of the cast, including David Peel, Freda Jackson, Yvonne Monlaur, Andrée Melly, Martita Hunt, and Michael Ripper, is also solid, the cinematography's good, really nothing to complain about, though it's fairly standard Hammer fare.

French schoolteacher Marianne, travelling through Transylvania, is stranded at an inn, and accepts the offer of the local baroness to spend the night at the castle, which the locals seem to think is a bad idea. The baroness' son is apparently insane, although he's rarely seen. During the night, she encounters the baron chained in his quarters, and after hearing his plea that his mother is ursurping his lands, she frees him, but he kills his mother and drinks her blood, causing Marianne to flee in terror. She runs into Van Helsing, but can't remember much of the night, and as people start being found dead around the area, Van Helsing must discover the source of the vampire contagion.

This is a very bare-bones release, with a passable telecine transfer that's ok on color and contrast, but a bit noisy and soft, and the color is a little weird here and there. Sound is ok, absolutely no extras, not even subtitles.

Hot tip

Quote:

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “hevk vampire” for more bloodsuckers, “hevk british” for more from the country of steadfast vampire hunters, or “hevk 60s” for more from the decade when gothic horror was all the rage.
