The Satanic Rites of Dracula -- In London, 1970, Scotland Yard police investigators think they have uncovered a case of vampirism. They call in an expert researcher named Van Helsing to help them put a stop to these hideous crimes. It becomes apparent that the culprit is Count Dracula himself, disguised as a reclusive property developer, but secretly plotting to unleash a fatal virus upon the world.

A terrifying story of a man who possesses an appalling power control over life and death. John Morlar is savagely attacked in his London flat and Detective Brunel, who is assigned to the case, is led to Morlar's doctor, Zonfeld. Morlar feels he possesses the gift of evil in the form of an awesome telekinetic power - to 'will' destruction and death. Brunel realises that Morlar's power exists and that he is able to wreak havoc at will. The detective is desperate to stop the next tragedy, but can he kill the nemesis? What if Morlar's body dies and his brain still lives?

A dying man's report of a ritual Black Mass stirs Britain's security chief, Colonel Mathews, and scholar Van Helsing into action. They discover a mansion filled with young vampire girls clawing at victims - held in coffins - and Dracula himself. Starring horror legends Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing ("Star Wars"), Freddie Jones ("Firefox") and Joanna Lumley ("Absolutely Fabulous"), and directed by Alan Gibson ("A Woman Called Golda").
