It was a good movie. J Carroll Naish played the part of Dr. Igor Markoff well. I think he was cast perfectly for the role of mad scientist.

Brides of Dracula (1960)

Great film. Have seen it several times in the past, but this was the first time on DVD, as part of the Hammer Horror Series set. The film looked the best I have ever seen it (which in the past has only been full-frame television broadcast). The colours are bold and lurid, something that early Hammer horrors really had in their favour.

The film is quite fast paced, and has a freshness and originality about it that holds one's interest.

*** SPOILERS***

There are a couple of flaws in this film, most notably to me was the overacting by Baroness Meinster's servant. Also, I felt Van Helsing's method of evading the vampire's curse by buring the bite marks from his throat with a hot iron, then bathing the wound in holy water was a bit of a cheat.

END SPOILERS

However, these did not detract in any major way from what is an excellent addition to the vampire movie genre.

9/10

Not horror but sci-fi.

Someone reminded me of Day of the Trifids a little while ago, so I borrowed it and watched it again. It amazes me that not a lot of people have seen it, it's one of the better sci fi/horror oldies out there....the special effects are still great, and the trifids are still pretty damn scary, even though I'm not a kid anymore. Makes you have second thoughts about strolling through the park....if you like creepy, you have to see this movie.
