Dracula: Prince of Darkness is a 1966 Hammer Horror film directed by Terence Fisher. The second entry to star Christopher Lee as the eponymous vampire, it serves as a more-or-less direct sequel to Horror of Dracula, entirely ignoring the events of the previous The Brides of Dracula.The film takes place ten years after the end of Horror. Even though Dracula has been destroyed, the land is still in fear of his presence, especially since his castle continues to loom on the horizon. Meanwhile, four English tourists — Charles Kent (Francis Matthews), his wife Diana (Suzan Farmer), his brother Alan (Charles Tingwell), and Alan's wife Helen (Barbara Shelley) — are navigating the country. Despite being warned by local priest Father Shandor (Andrew Keir) to steer clear of the castle, the Kents naturally don't listen and wind up stranded near the castle after their fearful coach driver abandons them.At the castle, the group is met by a caretaker named Klove (Philip Latham) who takes them in for the night, explaining that his late master stipulated that the castle should always be prepared to receive visitors. During the night, however, Alan is killed by Klove while investigating a noise. Klove then trusses up his body, hangs it over Dracula's crypt, and slits the throat so the blood drips onto the Count's ashes. Dracula revives and proceeds to resume his reign of terror, first by turning Helen into a vampire then going after Diana. It soon falls on Charles and Father Shandor to stop him.The film was followed by Dracula Has Risen from the Grave.

Resurrect the Villain: Ten years after his demise in the previous movie, Dracula is resurrected using Blood Magic by his loyal Renfield and begins seeking new brides. At the end of the film, he is defeated by being cast into running water — until blood re-awakens him in the sequel.

comment
The Complainer Is Always Wrong: Averted; Helen initially comes across as an annoying stick-in-the-mud, disapproving of virtually everything anyone says or does and preferring to stay in an old shack rather than going anywhere near Dracula's castle. But as we later see, she was completely right to be fearful.

Hidden Depths: When Charles is being menaced by Dracula, Diana grabs Shandor's rifle and shoots at the Count. While of course bullets are useless against Dracula and she misses anyway, it does show Shandor how they can kill Dracula. Besides, Diana doesn't know the rifle alone won't kill Dracula and her act shows she isn't prepared to stand aside and do nothing while her husband is in danger. She's also the first person in the movie to recognize the power of the cross and use it to defend herself.

comment
Minion with an F in Evil: The vampirized Helen. She completely fails to actually kill anyone, and is eventually caught off-screen by a bunch of monks who easily hold her down and calmly stake her. Of course not for lack of trying, she does succeed in biting Diana in the arm and only stopped due to Dracula interrupting her. Plus she is a newborn vampire and likely not very strong without any blood to power her.

Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Father Shandor to Dr. Van Helsing in the previous films. Where Van Helsing was a cultured scientist, Shandor is a monk with an earthy streak. Van Helsing respects the peasants' traditional beliefs, while Shandor dismisses them as superstition. And Van Helsing grapples with Dracula and forces him into the sun while Shandor sends him into the water by shooting the ice.

comment
Silent Antagonist: Dracula does not speak in the film, save for a few hisses. According to Christopher Lee: "I didn't speak in that picture. The reason was very simple. I read the script and saw the dialogue! I said to Hammer, if you think I'm going to say any of these lines, you're very much mistaken." Screenwriter Jimmy Sangster disputed that account in his memoir Inside Hammer, writing that "Vampires don't chat. So I didn't write him any dialogue. Christopher Lee has claimed that he refused to speak the lines he was given...So you can take your pick as to why Christopher Lee didn't have any dialogue in the picture. Or you can take my word for it. I didn't write any."

Happily Married: Charles and Diana. Alan and Helen slightly less so, perhaps that so it wouldn't be surprising they become two of the film's casualties (Alan having his throat slit and blood drained to revive Dracula and Helen being turned by Dracula— which might make it a dark take on this trope since Alan, in a sense, becomes Dracula and Helen his vampire bride).
