Countess Dracula (1971)
Directed by Peter
Sasdy this film stars Ingrid Pitt, Nigel Green, Sandor Eles and
Lesley-Anne Down. Following the death of her husband an ageing
Countess bathes in the blood of young women to look youthful again.
Nominally this film is
based on Elizabeth Bathory but is essentially a pretty standard
Hammer Horror film. One change from earlier films from Hammer is the
move towards including more nudity and heading towards sexpoiltation.
Mostly the film is well made and the old age make up on Ingrid Pitt
holds up surprisingly well.
3/5
