Usually the main villain getting very short screen time is the reason for a movie being weak but not this one during the first act as we follow 3 middle aged married men who are bored with their lives and have been going to sex orgies behind their families' back until they meet a supposed "Satanist" who offers them to make a deal with the devil and in return will be given a life of eternity and wonders.

The movie unfortunately kind of falls flat after the men choose to not drink Dracula's blood and in return the Satanist for some reason dies after he drinks a cup of Dracula's blood and then Dracula (Christopher Lee) appears and swears to kill the 3 men which he does. The men die very quickly and the only thing happening when these killings are not occurring is one of the men's daughters being romantically involved with a guy that her father hates. Dracula does then possess her but it kind of turns into a cheesy type of film with her boyfriend uses crosses to defeat Dracula which he easily does.

For a film that was made right as the year 1970 begun, it was interesting to see a lot of blood, gore and sexual nudity but it's unfortunate the 3rd act is very weak.
