Hammer Horror films have a reputation for not being well-made, but Countess Dracula is an exception to the rule.
The story has an uncommon angle which deals with a female vampire who thirsts for human blood just to stay young. Fitting
for a Hammer Horror production, it's, of course, colorful but oddly lacks blood.
Meanwhile, the performances aren't bad. Nigel Green, who plays Dobi, is the standout. Ingrid Pitt, who's well known for appearing in
Where Eagles Dare and The Wicker Man, does a good job of playing the titular character.
All in all, Countess Dracula is decent.
