Summary: Best Horror Movie that Hammer ever made
Review: This movie is great partially because of Veronica Carlesons's beauty and Christopher Lee's acting ability. This movie is really Gothic and Cool it is such a great movie and would be the best Vampire movie except for The Hunger with Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie which is even more gothic and cool.

Summary: SUPRISINGLY EFFECTIVE!
Review: This sequel to PRINCE OF DARKNESS quite possibly one of the more interesting films in the series. When a priest accidently cracks Dracula's icy tomb and bleeds on the vampire's lips, the Lord of the Undead has returned! Finding his castle sealed by a crucifix, Dracula takes revenge on the monsignor who did it by turning his glamorous daughter into the undead, and killing the monsignor himself. All goes well for Dracula until the girl's boyfriend Paul and Dracula's former slave chase Dracula to his castle where the fiend is once again sent to his doom. The only problem I can see is the continuity. It would have been better if the same castle set were reused. The makers should've seen the ending to PRINCE OF DARKNESS prior to making this one.Terrence Fisher is gone and his absense is very evident. However, this movie is extremely good and remains as one of the best films Hammer made. The monsignor should've had a bit more "oomph" in him if you know what I mean. Lee is phenomonal as always. However, I believe he is more effective and chilling as Dracula without lines. His expressions of savage evil and bloddy fangs in HORROR OF DRACULA scared me beyond belief! Go ahead and get this one. It's worth it - if you are Chris Lee fan and a Hammer fan!

Summary: One Of Christopher Lee's Best
Review: This third Hammer Dracula film ranks right behind, "Dracula- Prince Of Darkness". A very visual and stunning movie. The plot has the count seeking revenge on a priest's niece. The priest read the rite of exorcisim at Castle Dracula and now the castle door is barred by a giant gold cross. The count wants revenge and he wants it bad! A great scene in the film is when Dracula is put to the stake, and then pulls it right out.
A must for all Hammer Films and Christopher Lee fans.

Summary: Superb, atmospheric horror
Review: This was perhaps the first horror movie I ever saw (on a TV at a Ramada Inn when I was seven or eight) and it had a profound impact on me. Watching the film again, after more than 15 years, I was surprised by how well it holds up. Although some of the acting is a bit stilted, and the dialogue tends to be rather uninspired, the direction, cinematography, sets, and the presence of Christopher Lee as Dracula are all top-notch. Several scenes in the film are quite horrifying, and there is a pervading sense of dread in the production. Like a lot of Hammer films, the key word here is "atmosphere," and "Dracula Has Risen From the Grave" delivers impressively. Also, don't let the "G" rating fool you. Although there is no sex, nudity, or extremely graphic violence, a great deal is suggested (which only adds to the suspense and tension), and even older viewers may find themselves lost in the spell that this film so admirably casts.

Summary: Superb, atmospheric Gothic horror film
Review: This was, I believe, the first horror film I ever saw (on a television at a Ramada Inn when I was seven or eight), and it had a profound impact on me. Over fifteen years later, I bought the video and saw it for a second time, and was surprised at how well-made and effective it truly is. The problems with the film are the same ones that tend to plague most Hammer productions; the day-for-night photography is sometimes distracting, the dialogue is somewhat wooden, the continuity is confusing, and the ending is abrupt, but all these things, as usual, simply add to the sense of true nightmare that Hammer films thrive on. This is a film that drips and oozes atmosphere. Christopher Lee is, as usual, perfect in the role of Dracula. The direction and cinematography are fantastic considering the low budget. Don't let the G rating fool you. This is an intense and wonderful horror film. (And a wonderful introduction to the genre, I might add.)

Summary: Solid outing with the count
Review: What an awsome opening credit sequence in this film. The solarizing film effects together with the music make for a colorful and forboding psychedelic experience (no cheating here with CGI..this is real). The topics covered in this film reach much farther than the usual Hammer Dracula. The movie is like a morality play in many respects. The film is thought provoking and the imagery is very rich and beautiful. Christopher lee looks better than ever. Rupert Davies is such a natural actor, to bad we did not see much more of him in other Hammer films.
I still don't understand what is so exceptional with "Horror of Dracula" or "Dracula Prince of Darkness"? Maybe it is just name brand awarness gone amuck for some reviewers? I do prefer "Prince of Darkness" over "Horror of Dracula" but "Risen From the Grave" has it all for my money.
This film is a must! The picture is perfect, the acting first rate, the music truly haunting. **** Hollywood directors/producers take note, if the Hammer production company could make a film like this for $150.000 in 1968 why can't you folks with your infinite wisdom make a decent film with today's 50 million dollar plus budgets?????

Summary: Third installment of the Hammer Dracula cycle.
Review: While the story line for this third installment of the Hammer Dracula saga is routine, the film is distinguished for its more than usually Gothic look, especially in the early mountain scenes and the clever use of matte paintings; this is thanks to the directorial work of Freddie Francis, who went on to win an Oscar as the cinematographer for Passage to India. Also adding to the film's overall gothic effect is the musical soundtrack by James Bernard, a more dissonant score than he normally delivered for Hammer. END
