Poster Details
The artwork is widely considered one of the best Dracula film posters ever produced and was created by the designer Guy Gérard Noël. It features an iconic illustration of Count Dracula (played by Christopher Lee) in a black cape, holding one of his victims, a woman played by Melissa Stribling, who has striking red hair and is wearing a light blue dress. The background depicts Dracula's castle under a full moon, with key cast names and the French title "Le Cauchemar de Dracula" prominently displayed. The design effectively uses dramatic color contrasts and gothic imagery to capture the film's horror theme.
