Four English tourists find themselves stranded in the mysterious village of Karlsbad, a sinister and remote place of deadly, dark legend. Their journey leads them to an abandoned castle where a nightmarish destiny awaits them. However, it wasn't just fate that brought them here, but an evil force in need of resurrection, a blood craving beast known only as Count Dracula, Prince Of Darkness. Released in 1966 this is Christopher Lee's second outing as Dracula, with Hammer pushing the cinematic boundaries of graphic gore and terror. (StudioCanal UK)

Despite some positives, I don't feel that the horror movie "Dracula: Prince of Darkness" significantly deviates. Within the Dracula mythology, it is a relatively normal film that doesn't bring any radically new perspective, but rather deals with the fact that there is a vampire who should be defeated, or there is also a female vampire who needs to be put to rest. It's a pity, there could be possibly more to extract from it. On the other hand, compared to contemporary Dracula movies, it is still good.
