Horror of Dracula (1958)


IMDb plot summary: Jonathan Harker begets the ire of Count Dracula after he accepts a job at the vampire's castle under false pretenses.
Directed by Terence Fisher. Starring Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Michael Gough, and Melissa Stribling.

This is a pretty straightforward adaptation of the Dracula story, with only a few changes made. It's fun enough, I guess, but doesn't really stick with me even just a day after having seen it.

2.5 stars.
