There are no current or future screenings planned for this film.

“TASTE THE BLOOD OF DRACULA is unusual in that it keeps Dracula somewhat on the sidelines. He is more the force behind a kind of twisted moral retribution rather than just the aggressor in a struggle between good and evil.”
—Slant Magazine

This Hammer horror film reflects some of the generational strife of its era. A group of bad Victorian dads buy a vial of Dracula’s blood to use as an aphrodisiac or something, and Dracula himself is accidentally resuscitated to seduce the men’s daughters. Christopher Lee is the best on-screen Dracula ever, and it is proven again here. In 35mm.
