Reviews for Dracula Has Risen From the Grave

Freddie Francis creates some admirable atmosphere and tension in the first half-hour, but ultimately reduces the film to an inconsequential splurge of arbitrary religious and sexual motifs. Full Review |

|
The film props itself up mostly on [director] Francis's often-thrilling visual sense, and the visceral impact of the first and final scenes. Full Review |

|
... former cinematographer Freddie Francis does a spectacular job in the director's chair, milking every scene for maximum visual impact ... Full Review |
|||
|
It's still a very solid Hammer Dracula film, but the slow, downward spiral away from quality would continue with the next entry in the series ... Full Review |
|||
|
It's more camp than anything else; it's destined to provide more laughs at parties than thrills alone. Full Review |
|||
|
Another Hammer/Christopher Lee horror goodie.

There’s just not enough of Lee’s Dracula. Full Review |
|||
|
It has a nice look, but it's nothing new.
|
|||
|
For starters, Lee’s eyes are frequently and unnervingly bloodshot whenever his sexual drive begins to rev into gear. Full Review |
