3.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunately the poster is not as good as the movie itself, June 5, 2004

By	Lawrance M. Bernabo (The Zenith City, Duluth, Minnesota) - See all my reviews (TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (COMMUNITY FORUM 04)

"The Horror of Dracula" is perhaps the finest film produced by the Hammer Studio, who took the place forfeited by Universal Pictures in providing monster movies for the world. At the very least, "The Horror of Dracula" epitomized the Hammer style at its best with Christopher Lee quickly entering screen immortality as Count Dracula. Actually this 1958 film is one of the few Hammer films that allowed the vampire to have recognizable dialogue instead of inarticulate animalistic howls and the like. Jimmy Sangster's script streamlines Bram Stoker's novel, eliminating the Renfield character and subplot, and taking a more direct approach by having Jonathan Harker (John Van Eyssen) come to Castle Dracula for the purpose of staking the Count. After Harker's initial attempt fails, Van Helsing has to save his friend's soul and then protect Jonathan's fiancée, Lucy Holmwood (Carol Marsh), her brother Arthur (Michael Gough) and his wife Mina (Melissa Stribling), as Dracula's hit list grows. The names of the characters are the same as Stoker's novel, but the relationships have certainly changed.

The strength of this film is Peter Cushing's Van Helsing, a character as dynamic as the vampire he pursues. When Dracula is dispatched it is because the good doctor's brains are backup by some compelling physical action. Bernard Robinson's set designs for Castle Dracula belie the fact this film was produced for under $200,000 and the script's overt violence and subtle eroticism certainly plays to the strengths of director Terence Fisher. Of the eight Dracula films produced by Hammer, "The Horror of Dracula" is definitely the first and the best.

However, this 27.5 x 39.5 movie reprint poster is not anywhere near as good. It is actually based on the foreign design "A" for "Dracula il Vampiro" (with the "il Vampiro" removed; but you can see where it would fit). Both the "B" and especially the "D" and "E" foreign posters are better than this one. Of the domestic, the "A" poster, featuring a photograph of Lee as Dracula, is good too. So the bottom line is that this one is okay, but there are better "Horror of Dracula" posters out there.
