What is the best Hammer Studios Dracula movie?
Planning to see one or two Dracula movies by Hammer Studios and quite curious as to which ones are worth watching. Thanks.

The 1958 version of Dracula and “Dracula has Risen From His Grave” are both fine.
Hammer films are usually cheesy, and need editing, but these two are fun.

That film was the first that featured Lee & Cushing as the main lead, both class acts.
I grew up watching Hammer films & the primary reason that makes them so watchable is that they never took themselves too seriously, the fear factor always coupled with a deliciously cheesy sense of humour.
Thanks @ucme and @filmfann. Will get to it. Hoping the their Blu-Rays aren’t expensive.
Dracula Has Risen from the Grave was one of my fav’s…took the Count to a whole new dark and evil level over the previous movies.
Wow, just found out Freddie Francis directed Risen from the Grave. Nice.
If you don’t know which to watch, what I would do is grab this box set.
A little pricey, and it’s DVD not BluRay, but personally, if you like Hammer, this would be a great addition to your collection.
