mantwood liked this suspiria76 said: Dead leaves strewn about, trees stripped bare. It’s as though the Apocalypse has already begun even BEFORE the plot thread of having Bubonic Plague unleashed upon Humanity has even been introduced.
suspiria76 said: It’s a nice contrast to the previous DRACULA AD 1972 from Director Alan Gibson, which was somewhat garish and kitsch. Emphasising the early Seventies fashions and modernism, whereas SATANIC RITES turns it around: no groovy Hippy dialogue, more functional costumes and clothing. Everything looks stark, grey and ugly in the Modern settings, almost as a precursor to Cronenberg. The Film was shot in Winter, which adds to and emphasises the bleakness
monsterbride99 said: @suspiria76 hmmm… Now that I think about it, that does sound pretty cool. I guess at the time I saw the movie, I didn’t understand exactly what was going on. All I saw was Christopher Lee as Dracula and decided to watch it. Perhaps I’ll watch it again!
suspiria76 said: I actually like the stark modernism and bleak nihilism of this one. I like the idea that Dracula has infiltrated and corrupted the upper Echelons of Power, has Disguised Himself as a powerful and reclusive Entrepreneur. Conspiracy. Illuminati. And He plans to use a Virus to destroy the Human race, Biological Warfare!

This movie was perhaps the weirdest Dracula movie I've seen. Like, it literally was a 70's fever dream to me.
