Van Helsing, the known vampire hunter, returns to Transylvania in order to save the day once again. A young and innocent teacher on her way to her new position, sets free the horrors of the vampires by mistake. A seemingly easy task for Van Helsing, but will he make it?
Hammer Films and quality horror stories go together like cocaine and waffles. Nothing can go wrong with Terence Fisher on the wheel, Price in the lead and a couple of classy female characters! The Gothic-Baroque vibe is intense, the dialogues are strong and sophisticated, the characters well-developed and the story imaginative and horrifying. And just for the thrill, you also get some young, sophisticated ladies to fill up the secondary roles.
Peter Cushing, David Peel, Martita Hunt, Freda Jackson, Yvonne Monlaur and all the rest. All actors of a time long gone, actors of a different breed and culture for whom a role was their life. I can't write too much or I risk ruining their significance. Just watch the film and judge for yourself.
Must watch this : after a trip to Central Europe, maybe Czech Republic. Get all the Gothic and Baroque atmosphere you can, mix with memories of people and places from this trip and blend with a high-potent well-prepared glass of absinthe.
