Called to a small town in the country, Van Helsing finds that the cause for a series of strange murders in town is done by a vengeful vampire who has sights set on his new girlfriend, and he must race to stop the vampire's plans before more townspeople fall victim to the madman. What did everyone think of this one?

I love this movie, my favorite from Hammer. So much fun and its a beautiful film. Gets a 5 from me, even though I know it has its problems (a vampire that lacks the screen presence of Christopher Lee for one, though I still liked David Peel).

I'll give it a 5 as well. Again, more grandiose Gothic atmosphere with their immense castle and later on in the school, the relationship for once isn't excruciating to watch and it all comes together spectacularly in the end with the battle in the barn and outside in the courtyard, and I really don't have much wrong to say about it. The lead vampire is a little weak when it's just him, but that's due to him not really having a motive at all.
