1958's Blood of the Vampire had all the earmarks of a Hammer film without actually being one.  Hammer regular Jimmy Sangster was brought in to write the script.  The film very much echoed the style and flair of a Hammer film.  And Hammer actress Barbara Shelley (Dracula, Prince of Darkness, Rasputin, Quatermass and the Pit) plays the female lead.  It didn't fool British movie goers however where the film was less successful but found a healthy audience in the US where it ran for years on double bills with other B movies.

Dan and Vicky sink their teeth into Blood of the Vampire as well as a ton of recently seen including Candyman 2021, Malignant, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, 1939's Goodbye Mr. Chips, 1971's Sunday Bloody Sunday, and Hulu's Only Murders in the Building.
