I love this film and hope to revisit it soon. Much better than the 1958 movie in my eyes. The resurrection scene is superbly crafted. The follow-up was great too. I should have most likely began with the 1958 film, then moved onward. However, I guess I just went in, picking out each title, randomly, but from my last visit of the Hammer Dracula films I own, I do notice that the first one, was rated highest, but that several of those that did not get as good ratings, now has gone upwards, and I will most likely re-watch the first Dracula movie at the end of the week, then my next goal will be to either head forward to a few of the more modern Dracula films of the later era, still starring Christopher Lee, then move onto the Frankenstein series, the Mummy films and maybe other like, The Devil Rides Out and a few other that were featured in a nice looking 20 movies DVD box-set, released by Optimum Films as part of a Hammer Films celebration or tribute. You can't go wrong with Hammer Horror. Well, OK, that's not entirely true. They did make some clunkers and not all of their movies are of the same standard, but when they were on form they managed to produce some of the best horror movies of that era. I'm a fan of the first 3 Hammer Dracula movies. Things start feeling repetitive after that though. RE the Frankenstein ones, Frankenstein Created Woman (1967) is my personal favourite. It's such an odd little movie and the Baron is unusually sympathetic in it.
