taste the blood of dracula (1970)

A travelling salesman stumbles into a horrific scene, a dying Dracula (from 'Dracula Has Risen From The Grave'). Once dead he quickly scoops up Dracula's cape and some residual blood. Cut to three respectable men in Victorian London. They are jaded, seeking new experiences and excitement. Excitement that Ralph Bates promises them but only if they are willing to sell their souls to the devil.
Here we have a fine and entertaining Gothic horror and although Christopher Lee appears for all of five minutes, we hardly miss his presence.
