Review – Horror of Dracula

I really like Christopher Lee as Dracula. Even though he has almost no lines (unless evil hissing noises count as dialogue), he still manages to give the role a sense of style and menace that nobody other than the iconic Bela Lugosi has ever equaled. This one sticks closer to Stoker’s original story than any other Hammer production, though even so it takes considerable liberties with the plot and characters. Still, it’s a lot of fun to watch in an it’s-October-so-let’s-watch-some-creaky-old-horror-movies vein. Worth seeing
