From the start, Dracula establishes a strong contrast between the medieval-style religious faith of the Transylvanians and the more worldly outlook of the English. Little wonder, then, that the count chooses to travel to Britain, where people are reluctant to acknowledge anything beyond the most prosaically materialistic of concerns — and thus are more vulnerable to him.

The villan in this sequel Elizabeth Bathory is based on a real life 16th-17th century Hungarian countess. She probably holds the title for most profilic woman serial killer.

I read Dracula several years ago and I either missed the religious messages, or took them as part of the background or setting. Maybe I should reread the book!

There is a new main villain, a sadistic, lesbian vampire called Elizabeth Bathory.

Hammer Films isn't making any new features but Jess Franco is still directing...
