[Horror of] Dracula ****
UK: Terence Fisher, 1958 Hammer's first of many Dracula movies, and the only one to conform at all to the storyline of Bram Stoker's original novel. It takes a while to get going, but once it does it's a hell of a lot of campy fun. Peter Cushing is fabulous as Van Helsing, while Christopher Lee sinks his teeth into the role of Dracula (his first portrayal of the vampire) with great gusto, making him both elegant and menacing at the same time. The climactic scene which, unsurprisingly, sees Dracula's demise, is an all-time classic. IMDB reference

Movies
Welcome to the movie checklist!
This section is an archive listing every movie I've seen from January 1 2005 onwards. Films I have already seen are included and will be marked with a (*), but probably won't be reviewed except under special circumstances. I will be including a rating for each film (in stars, out of 5), and hope to be able to include a brief 1-2 paragraph review of each film, although due to time constraints that won't always be possible.
