Our expert's notes

An interesting Chantrell prototype artwork for Hammer Films, the imagery being very close to that used for the earlier Quad poster for "Taste The Blood Of Dracula" (BBFC certificated Feb '70). Chantrell was known to re-cycle his own work so it is possible that in order to meet a deadline this unused artwork was re-titled for the subsequent film ("The Scars Of Dracula" certificated in Sept '70). It is likely that this artwork was a prototype for a marketing brochure rather than a poster.
