Millennium Entertainment recently sealed a deal to bring Hammer titles to the US and Dracula: Prince of Darkness is the first title to be released on Blu-ray.

When a driverless carriage arrives they board it, intending to travel to the nearest village. However, the carriage instead takes them to the very castle which Sandor warned them against, where they are welcomed by Klove (Philip Latham), sinister manservant of Count Dracula (Christopher Lee)..."
