A young teacher on her way to a position in Transylvania helps a young man escape the shackles his mother has put on him. In doing so she innocently unleashes the horrors of the undead once again on the populace, including those at her school for ladies. Luckily for some, Dr Van Helsing (Cushing) is already on his way. SPECIAL FEATURES The Making of The Brides of Dracula Narrated by Edward de Souza and featuring interviews with Yvonne Monlaur, Jimmy Sangster, Hugh Harlow, Pauline Harlow, Don Mingaye, Margaret Robinson and Tony Hinds The Brides of Dracula Stills Gallery The Brides of Dracula Theatrical Trailer Top class Hammer movie. Peter Cushing's second outing as Van Helsing and David Peel's only vampire role. One of the most beautifully photographed movies ever - Jack Asher at his best and director Terence Fisher in top form. If the bat is a little clunky by modern effects standards, no worry for there is plenty to enjoy here. Great performances from Cushing and Peel, as mentioned, but also watch out for the acting duel between vetrans Freda Jackson and Martita Hunt; each gives a ripe performance and both are highly memorable. Other performances to look out for are from scene- stealing Miles Malleson as the hypochondriac Dr Tobler and Andree Melly who gave one of the 60's classic vampire images to the screen. Michael Ripper is also there for fans, this time as the scared coach driver. Cushing's authoratative Van Helsing carries the movie and David Peel's Baron Meinster is an excellent vampire foe - clipped Oxford English, red eyes and hissing vampire attacks. The burning windmill finale was lifted to conclude Tim Burton's SLEEPY HOLLOW which was a tribute to Hammer Films. Pure escapism - enjoy! --maxgol Review: Hammer gem - Great hammer film brilliant cast with Peter Cushing and the lovely yvonne monlaur and David peel plays a great vampire the blu ray picture is sharp and clear has if it was made yesterday well recommended Review: Only God has no fear... - Hammer's The Brides of Dracula (1960) was the first sequel their 1958 classic Horror of Dracula, and again stars Peter Cushing as ace vampire hunter Dr. Van Helsing. Christopher Lee's Count Dracula is absent this time, for reasons nobody has ever really confirmed; depending on which rumours you believe, he asked for too much money, turned the film down to avoid typecasting, or might not have been asked to appear at all. However, Lee isn't really missed in a movie that instead features the little-known actor David Peel as Baron Meinster, a blood-sucking mummy's boy with a taste for farm girls and French schoolteachers... One of the few Hammer horror movies to divide the opinion of fans, The Brides of Dracula has in its favour some really magnificent set designs, great photography, an unusual score from Malcolm Williamson, and top-notch performances from Cushing, Peel, and veteran actresses Martita Hunt and Freda Jackson. However, many commentators (amongst them one of the credited screenwriters, Jimmy Sangster) have drawn attention to the film's choppy narrative and various plot inconsistencies and contrivances, and the somewhat weak performance of the female lead, Yvonne Monlaur. Those criticisms do hold water, but they are scarcely noticeable once you are actually watching the movie; this is a dream-like, gothic fairytale, and one of director Terence Fisher's very best films. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Andree Melly, Anthony Hinds, David Peel, Edward Percy, Freda Jackson, Henry Oscar, Jimmy Sangster, Martita Hunt, Miles Malleson, Mona Washbourne, Peter Bryan, Peter Cushing, Terence Fisher, Victor Brooks, Yvonne Monlaur Contributor Andree Melly, Anthony Hinds, David Peel, Edward Percy, Freda Jackson, Henry Oscar, Jimmy Sangster, Martita Hunt, Miles Malleson, Mona Washbourne, Peter Bryan, Peter Cushing, Terence Fisher, Victor Brooks, Yvonne Monlaur See more | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 887 Reviews | | Format | Colour, Mono, PAL, Widescreen | | Genre | Action & Adventure | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Final Cut Entertainment | | Number of discs | 2 | | Runtime | 1 hour and 25 minutes | | Studio | Final Cut Entertainment | ## Product Details - **Format:** Colour, Mono, PAL, Widescreen - **Genre:** Action & Adventure - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 25 minutes ## Images ![The Brides Of Dracula (Blu-ray + DVD) [1960] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819dUt8vycL.jpg) ![The Brides Of Dracula (Blu-ray + DVD) [1960] - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61m9UvStsWL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hammer gem *by K***N on 27 August 2025* Great hammer film brilliant cast with Peter Cushing and the lovely yvonne monlaur and David peel plays a great vampire the blu ray picture is sharp and clear has if it was made yesterday well recommended ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only God has no fear... *by M***Y on 30 September 2007* Hammer's The Brides of Dracula (1960) was the first sequel their 1958 classic Horror of Dracula, and again stars Peter Cushing as ace vampire hunter Dr. Van Helsing.
