First time viewer


Just now starting to watch the Hammer Horror movies starting with the Frankenstein movies first..Just a quick question....Is Victor engaged to his cousin? Did i get that right? Was it proper for that time period? That is all..

by the way i never liked old horror movies like this but i love this movie and im only an hour into it. I dont know how to explain it but i guess i need to give all the other 40,50s horror movies a chance now..

Yes, if I recall correctly, she is his cousin. It used to be more common in the past for cousins to marry.

I had heard a lot about how good the Hammer horror films are, and, now that I'm finally viewing a few, I think that they are quite good.

I've seen it about 3 times and I think it is pretty good as well. I love old horror movies (the '60s, '70s, and '80s are my three favorite decades but there are many good ones before and after too) and I recommend Horror of Dracula (and its sequels). I'm sure that if you enjoyed this, you should enjoy it as well. They are both made by the same studio (Hammer Films) and are among the best classic horror has to offer.

Burn, witch! Burn, witch! Burn! Burn! Burn!
