My first post here! Hello. I agree about Brides of Dracula - Yvonne Monlaur was stunning, wasn't she? I also really rated David Peel's vampire; it's sad he never continued acting much after this. His Meinster character managed to do what Dracula never did - and put the bite on Van Helsing.
The only thing that disappointed me was the ending. After watching Dracula visibly crumble to dust in the previous film, Meinster just ... well, fell over! I always felt that was a little anti-climactic.
