THE BRIDES OF DRACULA
October 15, 2017  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 9:45 p.m. ET

 

TCM’s Sunday tribute to Dracula movies continues, and tonight it includes an unusual addition to the Hammer horror film franchise from England. Peter Cushing, who appears in several Hammer films as vampire hunter Doctor Van Helsing, is a star of 1960’s The Brides of Dracula, which TCM televises tonight at 9:45 ET. But his co-star, this time, isn’t the famous Hammer Dracula as embodied by Christopher Lee. It’s David Peel, in his penultimate role before retiring from the industry while still a young man, playing the good-looking, harem-collecting Baron Meinster.
