Hammer's "Dracula", with Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, opens at the Gaumont Cinema, May 1958. The beginning of a superb run of vampire classics that stretched through to 1974.

The one-and-only Michael Ripper. One of THOSE faces in British cinema and television, who was absolutely everywhere, though rarely in large roles. But he always gave everything, no matter how small the role.
Most famous for a ton of smaller/medium-size roles in Hammer Horror movies.

Dracula A.D. 1972 (1972) Dir. Alan Gibson – A groovy Hammer horror dripping with70’s style. Bringing Dracula into swinging London shouldn’t work- at all—or as well-but it does. Cushing and Lee anchor the madness, and the wild set décor is worth the price of admission. Campy, colorful and fun.🎞️📽️
