The Kiss Of The Vampire 1963.
Producer Anthony Hinds used the alias John Elder to pen the screenplay of Kiss
of the Vampire. Dr. Ravna (Noel Willman), an early 20th century Bavarian,
entices a British honeymooning couple, Gerald and Marianne (Clifford Evans,
Jennifer Daniel), to accept his hospitality. Once ensconced in Ravna's chateau,
the couple discovers with horror that Ravna, Bavaria's biggest fan of Count
Dracula, is the leader of an enthusiastic vampire cult. Clifford Evans plays
the Van Helsing counterpart, Professor Zimmer, a vampire expert who first tries
to warn the couple out of the area and then saves Marianne. Not as horrific as
the title suggests, Kiss of the Vampire concentrates on the seductive, sensual
side of vampirism, especially in a surrealistic masked-ball sequence. Though it
contains far less blood-letting than most Hammer productions, Kiss of the
Vampire was severely cut for its American TV release (and retitled Kiss of Evil).
