Roy SkeggsSatanic Rites of Dracula, The (1974)

Taken from IMDB
In London in the 1970s, Scotland Yard police investigators think they have uncovered a case of vampirism. They call in an expert vampire researcher named Van Helsing (an ancestor of the great vampire-hunter himself, no less) to help them put a stop to these hideous crimes. It becomes apparent that the culprit is Count Dracula himself, disguised as a reclusive property developer, but secretly plotting to unleash a fatal virus upon the world.

Subject: not the best one but very good
I liked what I saw except for the human/vampire ritual. That was a bit heavy handed. Question why isn't C.Lee and P. Cushing given credit in the film keywords in IA?

This movie isn't public domain. Why the hell is it on here? Starting to loose respect for archive.org.

I hope you enjoy watching this film as much as I did...
This 1974 film is a classic example of Christopher Lee as Dracula.

A typical Hammer production, they may never have been considered the cream production company of the movie world but they made fims that are worth watching again and again, especially HORRORS. It is sad that Hammer are no longer with us. It was from them I got a love horror movies and in particular Vampires.

I wouldn't say an excellent film but the Hammer films are starting to get a cult following. Great fun with popcorn on a rainy day.

Are all of the Hammer Films in PD? Of the ones that are does anyone know how they can be found? You can't search on 'production company'.
