The Satanic Rites of Dracula Trailers

The police and British security forces call in Professor Van Helsing to help them investigate Satanic ritual which has been occurring in a large country house, and which has been attended by a government minister, an eminent scientist and secret service chief. The owner of the house is a mysterious property tycoon who is found to be behind a sinister plot involving a deadly plague. It is in fact Dracula who, sick of his interminable existence, has decided that he must end it all in the only possible way- by destroying every last potential victim.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Although it's Hammer movie about Dracula, with Christopher Lee in the lead role, this is not a horror but a conspiracy crime thriller. Nevertheless, despite the original approach to the topic, an interesting idea and a good cast, the film is quite boring.5/10

I can remember staying up late to watch this on the BBC back in the 1980s when I was a kid and I loved it. It's a sexy mix of black magic and vampirism, set in modern London, though naturally it does look dated now. I do believe that it was actually screened uncut but sadly it is currently only available on VHS or DVD in cut form, surely it's only a matter of time until it gets a uncut release. Christopher Lee fans may be a bit disappointed as he is not on screen much but there's plenty of the great Peter Cushing. Hammer have made much better Dracula movies but for fans it is still good viewing.

This is one of the scariest movies ever made. It is the eight part to the Hammer Dracula series. And it is scary then that first seven. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also great special effects. This very intense. Dracula is killed by Lawrence Van H.e.l.s.i.n.g in Dracula A.D 1972. He is resurrected and this out for revenge. If this does not scary you then no movie will. I can't believe there are people who do not like this movie. I do not think they are a majority. This is a very intense. The hammer Dracula movies are some of the greatest horror movies ever. Christopher Lee who played the part of Dracula was one of the best actors of his time. Peter C.us.h.i.n.g who plays Van H.e.l.s.i.n.g was also also one of the best actors of his time. Joanna L.u.m.l.e.y who play Jessica Van H.e.l.s.i.n.g is a great actress. Also she was quit pretty when she was a young girl. This movie is a must see.

Alan Gibson returned to direct this sequel to "Dracula A.D. 1972" that again sees Peter Cushing returning as professor Van Helsing, who is called upon by old friend Inspector Murray(played by Michael Coles) to investigate cases of reported vampires that lead to a reclusive real estate developer who turns out to be Count Dracula(played by Christopher Lee for the last time) who is developing a plague virus to wipe out the human race...Van Helsing must risk everything to stop him. Equally illogical and preposterous sequel makes little sense, with incredibly sloppy writing(How was Dracula resurrected? He just was, and that's it!) A waste of two legendary actors, who deserved far better.
