While we were on Amazon, we watched Vampire Circus, which several of us, including myself, had never seen. It’s no Captain Kronos, but as an experimental Hammer vampire film it’s certainly better than their moribund Dracula movies were at the time. I will say the film was packed with nudity–well, the first half hour anyway–to a degree that surprised me. And there were zero familiar Hammer faces (not even Michael Ripper!), although David Prowse plays (of course) the silent Strongman and future Romana and Mrs. Tom Baker Lalia Ward is on hand as a puckish vampire. All in all well worth a look.
