The Satanic Rites of Dracula (or Dracula and his Vampire Bride in some countries) is a 1973 Hammer Horror film and a sequel to Dracula A.D. 1972, the second of the two Dracula movies to take place in the modern world.The film has a British Secret Service agency looking into a cult that practices dark rituals, of which they include the help of Professor Lorrimar Van Helsing (played by Peter Cushing). As they get closer into the matter they find that the cult has once again resurrected Dracula who plots to take over the world with a deadly virus. Leaving it up to Van Helsing and the agents to stop him.This film was the last time Christopher Lee played the role of Dracula onscreen (if you don't count Frankenweenie which was more of a joke cameo. And the french comedy Dracula Père et Fils by Édouard Molinaro, filmed in 1976.) | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed | |
| The Satanic Rites of Dracula / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Dracula poses as a multi-millionaire who is never seen in public and never photographed. A 1970s audience would inevitably have been reminded of the eccentric and reclusive Howard Hughes. | |

The Hedge of Thorns: Dracula is killed by these when he falls into a batch of them. As thorns are represented with Christ in religion, they're very effective against vampires. | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him: You know the Lord of the Undead has fallen pretty low when he's defeated by a tree. Also, Peter Torrence, who seems like a shoe-in to engage in the final battle, due to his special agent training. Instead, he's picked off by a sniper shortly after Mathews in the beginning of the third act. | |

Bond Villain Stupidity: When Van Helsing confronts Dracula the first time, he gets knocked out during a scuffle. Drac could've easily killed him and been done with it. But nope, instead he takes him to the county house, intending to infect him with the plague. Needless to say, Van Helsing gets free and leads to Drac's downfall. | |

Artistic Licence – Biology: (Specifically, epidemiology:) Dracula wishes to unleash a world-wide, completely genocidal, plague organism evidently spread solely by physical contact…that disables its victims immediately and kills them within minutes. It would therefore have a much harder time spreading itself than one which produced no symptoms for, say, three to five days. | |

Chained to a Rock: Jane, when found in the Cult's basement, is chained to a wall. It seemed like it was only temporary as, since she's a recent victim, they were waiting till they found a coffin for her. The rest of the vampire women are also chained near their coffins to prevent them from leaving the room though are given enough length to go after anyone unfortunate to wander down there. | |
