Taste The Blood Of Dracula (1970)
"Drink a pint of blood a day." Every British cinemagoer in 1970 got the joke: it is a ghoulish twist on "Drinka Pinta Milka Day", the Milk Marketing Board slogan that had been on posters and in jingles since the late fifties. Hammer were masters of selling a film with a wink, and Taste the Blood of Dracula is a sharp one, three pillars of Victorian society who go looking for forbidden thrills and get far more than they paid for, with Christopher Lee's Count taking his revenge through their own children.
The British Quad is a riot of red: Lee's snarling face dripping down the left, a fainting victim beneath, and that famous line splashed across the top. First-release Hammer Quads have become some of the most sought-after British posters of the era, and this one is folded as issued, just as it was sent to cinemas.
