Screening of Hammer's 1958 Gothic horror 'Dracula', directed by Terence Fisher and starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.
Dracula is screening at Storyhouse Cinema on Saturday 31 October, just in time for Halloween. It's the 1958 Hammer classic directed by Terence Fisher, and it runs for about 97 minutes, starting at 3:30pm.
If you're not familiar with it, this is the one that really put Hammer Films on the map as a force in horror. It's widely seen as a landmark of Gothic horror, and for good reason: it's where Christopher Lee first took on the role of Dracula, the version that became the definitive interpretation of Bram Stoker's vampire for generations. He's playing opposite Peter Cushing as the fearless Van Helsing, and the two of them together are the real draw here. The supporting cast includes Michael Gough, Melissa Stribling and Carol Marsh.
