“Transylvania, land of dark forests, dread mountains and black, unfathomed lakes. Still the home of magic and devilry as the nineteenth century draws to it’s close. Count Dracula, monarch of all vampires, is dead, but his disciples live on, to spread the cult and corrupt the world.!”
Terence Fisher’s “Brides of Dracula” is my top three favourite Hammer Film. Wonderfully written, superbly acted. Peter Cushing is a joy to behold as Van Helsing. His memorable scene in which he exsises the vampires bite from his neck is iconic. Hammer’s follow up to their hugely successful Dracula (Horror of in some territories). Featuring a version of the beautiful painted artwork used on the British quad, this original Spanish one-sheet from 1960 is a genuine thing of beauty where the imagery (in my humble opinion) suits the portrait format better than the landscape format of the quad. Colours are superb, with the ‘blood’ red of the title particularly vibrant. Originally folded (as issued), this rare example has been conservation linen backed and looks absolutely superb with the fold lines having been touched in it now appears rolled. An extremely desirable and collectable item of horror movie cinematic memorabilia.
Trivia: The front doors of Oakely Court served as the main entrance to Meinster Castle. Oakley Court has been featured in a number of classic horror films, including The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), The Horror of Dracula (1958), The Evil of Frankenstein (1964), Die, Monster, Die (1965), and The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975).
