Scars Of Dracula [DVD]

another good Dracula film with a great cast and more bloodthirsty of all the Dracula films and a good performance from Patrick throughton

Great packaging and extras, Hammer treating fans with a great collection of restored classics from their archive

Very interesting concept. I enjoyed the film, the transfer was immaculate with very clear sound. Very classy ending.

why did studio canal bring out the uncut version of this film in 4k dracula drinking the blood of the vampire woman patrick troughton seems out of place in this film and should not have been in it as clove he looks to scruffy looking the clove in dracula prince of darkness is clean and tidy and spoils the film a bit at least dracula is in the film a lot not like the 1958 version

A great set for the true Dracula fan. Lots of detail, and the restoration quality is fantastic.

Stonecold classic

It's certainly not a film to get very excited about anyway, but i was expecting a touch more heft with such a box set. In particular the extras could have been far better curated. Painfully limited extras, the only thing worth absorbing here being the audio commentary, thankfully featuring Christopher Lee and Roy Ward Baker (Director). There is a degree of honesty within some of the extras, in particular aknowledging that it is a rather flimsy film, which I admired, however within a similarly flimsy selection of extras. It really is a pity, for a 4k release, we don't at the very least get a couple of extra commentries. They could have done a modern one with some film historians and critics, as done in other releases. What a blow. Wait for a price reduction! The 4k transfer is pretty decent though, as much as I never had this on Blu-ray, I would suspect it's not a lot different. However, there is enough fine tuning to make things apparent that you'd rather not be apparent. Okay, so the bats weren't particularly believable at any point in time, but the stings are much easier to see, in addition, the burning Dracula at end is very clearly covered, face and all in protective materials, going so far as becoming little more than a burning scarecrow at the end. Unfortunately high def, in this case, makes the set seem a lot more like a stage play set, and people, during nastier moments, showing obvious painted and blobbed on gore effects. It was better when these aspects werent so imediately clear. It's a not bad not good kind of thing, though, at this price leaning a little more towards bad.

Well have never ever seen this film at all. It starts of a bit slow but soon speeds up and a reasonably good story line to boot, A lot of the stars in the film went on to bigger parts later, like the man servant who is a doctor who star, and Dennis water-man who was later to be a big name on the TV. Some of the bats one could see being bounced around while on elastic but again for it's time was good.

great movie

I had been concerned that it would not play in the USA. I hadn't noticed that there was a warning about that before I purchased it. It took a long time to arrive by USPS snail mail, but I use PowerDVD 23 and it translates European DVDs just fine. This concludes the Christopher Lee/ Hammer Dracula collection for me and I couldn't be happier.

Item as described and fully functional. Fast shipping. Thank you!

Would have given this seller a zero if that option was available. We cannot play this DVD here in the US. Nothing in the advertisement mentioned a locked country code. Sending back! What a disappointment!!!

I CAN'T PLAY THIS DVD. IT SAYS REGION 2
