Experience Hammer’s definitive horror classic as never before.
Restored in stunning 4K from the best surviving original archival materials, this landmark edition of Dracula reinstates footage believed missing for more than six decades, including material previously seen only during the film’s original Japanese theatrical release.
Restored by Hammer Films and Silver Salt Restoration in partnership with Warner Bros., this is Dracula in its most complete form ever presented.
Starring Peter Cushing as Van Helsing and Christopher Lee in his iconic performance as Count Dracula, Terence Fisher’s 1958 masterpiece remains one of the defining films of British Gothic horror.
