Love Joan Fontaine in it, she along with Deborah Kerr are easily my favourite of the classic hollywood leading ladies and its great to see her in a hammer horror, just as it was great to see Deborah Kerr the classic THE INNOCENTS (1961) and the less well known (but extremely good) hammer-like horror EYE OF THE DEVIL (1966). Perhaps they have both done other horror films I'm not aware of ??

Going to watch the Dracula's in chronological order starting tonight I think.

What's everyone's most-watched Hammer then? I think mine must be PLAGUE OF THE ZOMBIES, followed closely by both THE WITCHES, NIGHT CREATURES (CAPTAIN CLEGG) and HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES.
Quatermass 2 or ....& the pit
Plague
Dracula, prince of darkness (the dialogue alone...)
