The Satanic Rites of Dracula - Opening Theme 

I luv this music! Old London. Matt the Siouxsie fan .

The best music of any horror film. I remember when I first saw this opening and thought, my goodness, this film will be good. It was, to my taste, a little slow in places but Lee, Cushing and Freddie Jones were outstanding. Love the part about 'evil rules' and 'the thrill of disgust'.

This, and one or two others, are important for another reason. This is London in 1973. No Millenium Wheel, No Eye, etc. It's a city scape of what London used to look like.

I loved this film the musical score was great and sinister! Chris Lee wasn't keen on doing another Drac after AD72 but reluctantly did this one, which is my favourite of them all. The story worked well I thought.

love this music

This is one of the most 70's film ever.

i saw this in 1978/9 as part of BBC2's Horror Double Bill season on saturday nights. I recorded by audio tape all the intro music to those movies, but always loved this particular theme. Thanks for posting. ATVmidlands

great intro, london in the 70s & dramatic music☺🐶that dark figure in the corner freaks me out though...

love this theme it is the best one

Love this treme!

Has that KPM library TV and film music '70s type feel to it.

The chello cutting in at 0:48 is fab and sinister

that is a damn good piece of music thanks for posting it or I may have never heard it

joanna lumley is stunning in this with the red hair

This film may not be all that great but it really brings Dracula to new height as a super villain

Boris Johnson and the cabinet... "In your name!"

Up to date added a bit more of a chill moreover we could maybe meet Dracula

The tune just screams 70s Hammer. Really top bit of music, and the film isn't too bad either. Not a classic but very watchable.

The ghost of John Cacavas sent me here. RIP.

It's awesome. Thank you for sharing it!

Wow really awesome theme jeez! cheers for posting it really hit's the spot for me.

Amo demais❤❤❤❤

This is exquisite music.

john cacavas also did the music for airport 75 and kojak.

All hail 1 baby hand Dracula.

It's the intro to the final Hammer's Dracula film from 1973..... Lee moved on to do Man With The Golden Gun after this..... 1972/3 was really the last good year(s) for British movies for film/horror....

Christopher Lee é o Rei.

dope

IF I WAS BORN AGAIN ...MY BAD LUCK . JOHN .
