Taste the Blood of Dracula

3 bored rich businessmen in Victorian England meet one of Dracula's servants who offers them a chance for excitement if they will sell their souls. Another Dracula sequel in Hammer Horror's long running Dracula series, this follows on directly from the ending of Dracula Has Risen From The Grave. Dracula of course always comes back after being killed in the previous movie and after a tense build up, Dracula finally appears, brought back to life and hunting the men who killed his servant played by Ralph Bates with a cast that includes Geoffrey Keen, Peter Sallis, Roy Kinnear, Isla Blair, Martin Jarvis, Anthony Higgins and of course Christopher Lee in his most famous role as Dracula. It's good fun even if you have seen it all before and can guess what happens next in a film which sticks rigorously to the Hammer Horror formula.

Hammer horror close to its best,really interesting and slightly different storyline to the other dracula/vampire movies by hammer,really enjoying this one.

This review is about the disc not the film.The print is very clean and sharp with vibrant colours and a clean soundtrack. It is presented in a full 16:9 aspect ratio which is potentially correct although some sources maintain that the film was more like 1:66 meaning that there is very slight zooming losing a little information at the top and bottom of the image if true. The film appears to be uncut.Sadly as with the range released on this label, there are no extras, and this is a shame when one looks at the excellent "making of" programmes seen on other Hammer releases. For that reason I rate it 4/5

The Hammer Dracula films terrified me when I was young! Still love them even though they aren't so scary anymore :)

One of the weirdest dracs from hammer 3 rich business. Men buy what's left of Dracula after he died. In a previous. FilmA young cult follower performs a ritualHowever disgusted at the idea of drinking Dracula s blood they murder the cultistDracula rises and sets out to kill the business men and there children due to revenge as usual drac comes unstuck and is destroyed again not by the hero but by being in a church ....I liked it but its a bit odd

I can confirm this Blu-Ray does play on a standard (not hacked) UK player.The disc and case are bare bones, the disc only has the name of the film on it,no artwork, and the case is extremely flimsy.I'm no expert but the film itself looks good and clean with no film damage or speckles etc.

Love this film. As a big Hammer Hprror fan, I consider this to be one of the best of Hammer's Dracula Movies. Great to see its in Blu Ray, The Picture is fantastic.

I bought the region A/1 copy and it plays perfectly on my UK 2+ year old Sony Blu-ray player. Worth the risk as I got it so cheap
