The Dracula movies from Hammer Films featuring Christopher Lee were guaranteed to scare the everlovin' crap outta me.

My fave (also, IMO, the scariest) was Dracula has Risen from the Grave. I slept with the light on for almost a year after seeing that one. Christopher Lee was just awesome.

Other cherished faves are:

The Abominable Doctor Phibes and Doctor Phibes Rises Again, both starring Vincent Price;

Mask of the Red Death (also starring Vincent Price);

Scream and Scream Again (A Brit film comprised of various vignettes).

I dunno. The old British film makers had a great knack for creating awesome psychological and visual thrillers. Love them.
