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.

Time Out

7/10

Tim Brayton

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

Steve Biodrowski

... former cinematographer Freddie Francis does a spectacular job in the director's chair, milking every scene for maximum visual impact ...

Lucius Gore

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 ...

Jeffrey M. Anderson

It's more camp than anything else; it's destined to provide more laughs at parties than thrills alone.

It has a nice look, but it's nothing new.

Eric Henderson

For starters, Lee’s eyes are frequently and unnervingly bloodshot whenever his sexual drive begins to rev into gear.
