Professor Van Helsing had been asked to help against the tyranny of skeletal creatures that are responsible for terror and death amongst the peasants in rural China. He is the only person qualified to deal with the cause of these phenomena, for the undead are controlled by the most diabolical force of all.... Count Dracula. But he is not alone- to aid him comes a mystical brotherhood of seven martial arts warriors.

The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires Audience Reviews

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
phanthinga The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires is one of the kind movie when it combine two most well know studio in the world:Hammer and Shaw Bros so the result i exactly what i expected.The awesome score of Hammer and the kick ass action scene of Shaw Bros mix perfectly with each other.For the first time i can witness two legendary actor Peter and David Chiang Cushing working together.That being said the movie still fill with many noticeable flaws and the Shaw Bros elements is stronger than Hammer but if you can look pass that this movie is a great piece of entertainment
jacobjohntaylor1 This a prequel to The satanic rites of Dracula. The it is great movie. It is very scary. If you do not get scared of this movie. Then no movie will scary you. It is the ninth hammer Dracula movie. It takes please after the first six hammer Dracula movies. But before the seventh and eighth hammer Dracula movies. This movie has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. See this a movie. It is a must see. The first eight hammer Dracula movies are a little better. But this is one of the best horror movies ever. This a 70's horror classic. Dracula kills a c.h.i.n.e.s.e man. He shape s.h.i.f.e.s into a him. He goes to China to rise seven vampires that where gold mask and suits. Very scary.
UnderworldRocks Hammer's Dracula series is nothing more than a bunch of old dusty vampire films with pathetic low budget, laughable effects, and ridiculous plots in which the vampires are nothing more than a bunch of weak-ass turtles. This belief was firstly established by watching the trashy "Horror of Dracula" (a film that should be called "A Horrified Dracula"), and a few follow-ups (a series of rubbish) like "Brides of Dracula", and further made solid by this abomination.The story had potential. The idea of Dracula having cross-cultural communication with the Chinese vampires seems interesting. Watching a Chinese priest who's dressed like a Chinese monk speaking Chinese to Dracula and Dracula having no trouble with communicating got me intrigued and made me laugh. A vampire film with Chinese elements would be fun, I thought.Oh gosh. How wrong I was, thinking this piece of crap could have been fun!
Claudio Carvalho In 1804, in Transylvania, a Chinese walker heads to the castle of Dracula. He awakes Dracula from his tomb and explains that he is Kah, the High Priest of the Seven Golden Vampires in China that are powerless. He needs Dracula to restore their power and the vampire takes Kah's body and image. One hundred years later, Professor Laurence Van Helsing (Peter Cushing) gives a lecture at a Chinese university about the legend of the Seven golden vampires but the students leave the auditorium finding that the all the exposition is superstition. However the student Hsi Ching (David Chiang) meets Van Helsing at home and tells that the legend is true and he knows the location of the vampires. Van Helsing accepts to travel to the village in the countryside to help to destroy the vampires and the wealthy widow Mrs. Vanessa Buren (Julie Ege), who has befriend his son Leyland Van Helsing (Robin Stewart), offers to sponsor the expedition provided she may go with them. Soon they embark with seven siblings skilled in kung-fu in a dangerous expedition to destroy the Golden Vampires and Dracula."The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires" is the worst Dracula's movie produced by Hammer, with a ridiculous story that combines vampires with martial arts. This movie is a co-production of the Shaw Studio from Hong Kong and was released with different titles. The Anchor Bay DVD presents also the American edited version "The 7 Brothers Meet Dracula" that I did not see. It is also funny to see Vanessa Buren and Leyland in a hard expedition dressed like they are going to a party. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): Not Available
