	The Satanic Rites of Dracula (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Over the course of the investigation they learn that Dracula has been brought back to life by one of his disciples and that he means to unleash a new strain of the plague that kills within minutes.
		Dracula has his classic powers and weaknesses he is vulnerable to crosses, garlic, silver, sunlight, and a staking to the heart.
		Having Dracula who masterminded a plan to wipe out humanity, turned the most powerful people in England into his pawns, and was a hairs width from getting away with it, fall down and be staked without a fight is an unacceptable ending for this movie.

	Satanic Rites of Dracula, Christopher Lee, Hammer Films 1973
		Though Van Helsing surmises that Dracula is acting from some kind of roundabout death wish, this hardly seems consistent with his character as developed in all the previous films.
		An unanswered question is how Dracula came to be in possession of a such a vast business empire in so short a period of time.
		Dracula's appeal for his followers is the promise of immortality.

	Taste the Blood of Dracula
		The strange paternalness of Dracula's actions, implying that he viewed poor Courtney as a "son" (even despite the whole "taking over his body and reshaping it in his own image" thing) and thus considers having these fathers killed by their own children just compensation, makes this more than your usual villain-seeks-revenge plot.
		Dracula is killed bywell, images of a Mass, supposedly invoked suddenly by Paul's fiddling around with the church (why it kills Dracula at that particular moment in the battle and why Dracula didn't relocate to some place not as potentially holy are both beyond me).
		While seeing Alice morph into Dracula's evil slave was nice (the scene where she leads Lucy to her master like a lamb to the slaughter is almost a classic), she does little else but be the Juliet to Paul's obnoxious Romeo.

	Dracula, Prince of Darkness / Satanic Rites of Dracula (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Dracula, Prince of Darkness is typical Hammer fare: good performances and a workman-like script with the usual amount of neck-biting and blood.
		In the last of Hammer's vampire films, the series hits a low point with The Satanic Rites of Dracula, which finds the bad Count transplanted to modern day London (after all, he is immortal), and leading some sort of bizarre Satanic cult that has entrapped some of England's most influential and important people.
		The Satanic Rites of Dracula (released in the United States as Count Dracula and His Vampire Bride) is the concept stretched to its thinnest.

	Satanic Rites of Dracula
		The last of the Christopher Lee Dracula films is easily the worst.
		Most of the villain duties go to a murderous satanic cult in London that worships Dracula and sacrifices topless women.
		Weirdly enough, both of that film and this may have served as inspiration for "Dracula 2000," a modern-day Drac pic set in London of 2000.

		Dracula (Christopher Lee) devises the ultimate plan to destroy Mankind and end his own epic existence.
		While Lee's Dracula may not be as active as usual, this is made up for by him actually having some kind of character.
		And h is put on accent as 'D D Denhem' (Dracula's alias) is also a great bit of Lugosi humour added to the dark proceedings and a clever take on Lee never giving Dracula the accent of Lugosi, the other most famous Count.

	The Satanic Rites of Dracula
		Lee's Dracula rarely appears at all in this movie and when he does, he just kind of goes through the motions (the script doesn't really give him much to do, since the focus is on this stupid satanic cult that is trying to cook up a batch of plague).
		Van Helsing remembers that Dracula doesn't like it when he gets pricked by hawthorn bushes (cause they made Christ's crown of thorns out if it) so he runs through them and then we see why Chris Lee was so perturbed that he had to make this movie.
		Dracula twists and turns and whines about all the owies he's getting from the bush, so Van Helsing takes a handy fence post and rams it through Dracula, ending the battle once and for all.

	Satanic Rites of Dracula [1974] DVD at Shop Ireland
		Satanic Rites of Dracula [1974] starring: Patrick Barr, Michael Coles Directed by: Alan Gibson
		This film was originally released in Britain as "The Satanic Rites of Dracula," but that is apparently a very bad adjective to use for a film title (the original U.S. release title was "Count Dracula and His Vampire Bride").
		Dracula (Christopher Lee) is once again back from the dead, although without any explanation, now calling himself D. Denham, a billionaire recluse who owns lots of property and is engaging in satanic rites (hence the title), including human sacrifies (a form of fasting for vampires?).

	www.Vampire-World.com - Movie Revies: "The Satanic Rites of Dracula", Alan Gibson, 1973
		Dracula flees but becomes entangled in a whitethorn bush in the mansion's park and is once again - this time in not a quite spectacular way - impaled by van Helsing.
		Actually, the movie is simply bad, the plot is stupid and completely illogic, the special effects are mostly ridiculous and the bungler of a director, Alan Gibson put the movie so badly in scene that it is not even funny and therefore could have acquired some cult status among the bad taste fans.
		Even if Lee has always been a fairly good actor and even had the chance to play the James Bond evil doer once ("The man with the golden gun"), he never managed to become a super star, which was probably due to minor movies such as this one.

		Dracula AD 1972 was one of Warner's poorest sellers apparently so if we get it it would probably be in a box set.
		Satanic Rites an underrated Hammer effort as I have said MANY times before.It would not surprise me if Warner has them lined up for release in the very near future.
		I was under the impression that Warner actually issued "Dracula AD 1972" on R2, at least in Germany, with a couple of others like "Dracula has risen from the Grave" and "Legend of the 7 golden Vampyres".

	The Satanic Rites of Dracula (1973)- Moria The Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Review
		With their seventh Dracula film, Dracula A.D. (1972), Hammer had made grudging in-roads to the steps being taken by other vampire films – the acknowledgement that the vampire needed to be taken out of its Victorian milieu and updated to the present.
		Dracula A.D. was generally regarded as the worst of the Hammer Dracula’s.
		Dracula A.D., showing some of the way Hammer could have gone to contemporize Dracula – Dracula is now a Howard Hughes-modeled reclusive millionaire, the shadowy figure behind a sinister corporation.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - The Satanic Rites of Dracula (1974)
		Count Dracula may be immortal, but the sun was bound to rise on the long-running Hammer series of Drac films starring Christopher Lee.
		The Satanic Rites of Dracula was the end of the line for Hammer's version of the famous vampire, which is probably just as well, since it is one of the more laughable attempts to update a horror character to the modern day.
		Basically, Dracula is dead and no longer loving it, so if he's going to die he's going to take everyone with him.

	Dracula - Prince Of Darkness (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		“Dracula: Prince of Darkness” is commonly held in pretty low-esteem by fans of the classic Hammer series starring Christopher Lee.
		Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy, the werewolf, and all the other horror staples were revamped and energized by Hammer, but none so completely as Dracula.
		In the first film, “Horror of Dracula” (1958) Christopher Lee shattered the anemic, prissy image of Lugosi’s count with a mixture of ferocity and sensuality lacking from any Dracula before or, arguably, since.

		This was Christopher Lee's last portrayal of Count Dracula, and although he failed to impress me here I won't attempt to judge his earlier efforts for which I have heard good things.
		The setting is modern day England (1974), and the once-again less than vanquished Dracula sets out to get his horrible revenge on the world-his plan is to unleash a plague bacillus that makes the Black Death look like a slight case of psoriasis.
		He has helpers of course, and this is where the satanic rites come in.

		It becomes apparent that the culprit is Count Dracula himself, disguised as a reclusive property developer, but secretly plotting to unleash a fatal virus upon the world.

		Despite the slating that Dracula A.D. got from the critics, Hammer still produced a sequel, continuing the Dracula story in the modern day.
		It was originally scripted as Dracula is Dead and Well and Living in London, and it is unclear how close the finished film is to the original script.
		Wisely, there were no sequels to this film, but there was another Dracula movie by Hammer- the character featured in the film The Legend Of The Seven Golden Vampires (1974), in which Peter Cushing played Van Helsing for the final time.

		Dracula has, it seems, allowed his contempt for humanity to reach its logical conclusion: no longer content with drinking blood, he has gathered together a group of scientists and created a plague which will eradicate all life on earth.
		Unbelievable, it becomes terribly apparent that the culprit may be none other than dracula him self, secretly plotting to unleash a fatal virus upon the world.
		In short, this makes for a very poor plot and low budget effects, we only see Dracula approach one female victim and even then we are spared the horror of her fate.

		Still, THE SATANIC RITES OF DRACULA does feature the impeccable duo of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing in the roles of Dracula and Van Helsing.

		Evil of Dracula is probably the best of these, and also the one most obviously influenced by the Hammer cycle, but that doesn't turn out to be a good thing.
		We suppose this is an advantage if you're dead set on watching this movie from beginning to end – at least you have something on which to focus your attention beside the inaction on screen – but for most viewers, it will merely be further incentive to turn off the TV set.
		Evil of Dracula was originally known as The Bloodthirsty Rose, which fits a bit better with the movie's plot and themes – and the fact that Dracula never makes an appearance.
