Lee and Cushing barely share the screen together, a shortcoming that sinks the entire experience far more than its forgivable campy aesthetics.

Some fun moments, especially the fights between the two Van Helsings and Dracula, but sadly a lot of middle is a bit meh, and the opening 70s shot is near-torturous...

The disappointment involving Dracula A.D. 1972 is that the title character never ventures outside his hiding ground, missing a rich opportunity for some interesting juxtapositions.

Dracula A.D. 1972 isn't a great movie. But it is an undeniable hoot to watch especially if, like the Count, "you've got an eye for London's hot pants... " And who doesn't, really?

Rather awful, this is one of the sadder entries in the Dracula canon.
