Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter Collector's Edition 4K + Blu-ray
'Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter' Director Brian Clemens (1974) Hammer Films Limited Collector's Edition 5-disc 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray
Brian Clemens writes and directs this stylish, revisionist Hammer Horror – pitting a swashbuckling hero, his hunchbacked assistant and a feisty gypsy ingenue against a cunning and malevolent vampire. Starring Horst Janson and Hammer Glamour icon Caroline Munro.
A rash of mysterious deaths due to accelerated ageing compels Dr Marcus to summon his brother-in-arms, Captain Kronos – once a soldier but now a professional vampire hunter. As the deaths continue, however, Kronos realises that this is no ordinary vampire he’s hunting.
