Description

The Satanic Rites of Dracula (Columbia-Warner, 1974). Folded, Fine/Very Fine. Day-Glo British Quad (30" X 40").
Blending gothic horror with 1970s espionage, The Satanic Rites of Dracula offers a uniquely eerie and atmospheric entry in Hammer's long-running Dracula series. Though not the final film in the franchise, it marks a significant milestone as the last time Christopher Lee would don the cape as the iconic Count, once again facing off against Peter Cushing's resolute and relentless Van Helsing. The film weaves elements of the occult, Cold War paranoia, and bio-terror into its narrative, creating a strange but compelling fusion of old-world horror and modern dread. Presented here is the vibrant day-glo British quad for the film which thrillingly captures both Lee and Cushing. Flaws include light edge wear, small corner bends, fold wear, pinholes, creases, scuffs/smudges, a few moderate border tears, and primarily light staining at the corners and within the white background. Additionally, there are about eleven moderate strips of plastic tape on the verso.
