I'm not all the way through this and the Frankenstein series just yet. But I definitely prefer Frankenstein so far.

Eh, I like the Frankenstein series, but I love the Dracula's. Specifically the ones w/ Chris Lee- I personally don't really "count" BRIDES or GOLDEN VAMPIRES.

The Frankensteins are a little more dry.

Bumped and poll added!

whats a good order to watch these in and what are the best versions of each. Ive seen 5 different version of Satanic rites by 5 different companys

Watch 'em in order of release, if possible.

Both BRIDES OF... & LEGEND OF... can be skipped altogether or put off since they're not really proper parts of the series.

The Anchor Bay disc is the best release of SATANIC, but is fairly expensive, as it's OOP.

My double feature AB disc of SATANIC.../DRACULA PRINCE OF DARKNESS was like 30 something $.

I have to go with Taste The Blood.... I love the fact that part of it was filmed in Highgate Cemetery. I think it was one of the best written and filmed Hammer movies.

I voted for Satanic. I don't know if it's actually the best, or even my favorite, but it deserves a nod for weirdness.
