Captain Kronos, Vampire Hunter fights a plague-ridden vampire with a sword his hunchbacked assistant forged from a steel cross. Watch for the "behind the back" attack, how Rob Roy learned the "grab the sword" gambit and the ever popular "use the hypnotized innocent victims as human shields" move. Damn I miss Hammer Films!
Great scene. I heard the director was told he only had less than three days to shoot this sword fight before they struck the set. He was less than pleased when it stood standing for like a week after. Considering the lack of time he had to work with, I think he did an excellent job. Thx for posting.
