Empire magazine ranked Lee's portrayal as Count Dracula the 7th Greatest Horror Movie Character of All Time. In 2017 a poll of 150 actors, directors, writers, producers and critics for Time Out magazine saw Dracula ranked the 65th best British film ever. Christopher Frayling writes, " Dracula introduced fangs, red contact lenses, décolletage, ready-prepared wooden stakes and – in the celebrated credits sequence – blood being spattered from off-screen over the Count's coffin." Lee also introduced a dark, brooding sexuality to the character, with Tim Stanley stating, "Lee's sensuality was subversive in that it hinted that women might quite like having their neck chewed on by a stud". As Count Dracula, Lee fixed the image of the fanged vampire in popular culture. Production began at Bray Studios on 17 November 1957 with an investment of £81,000.
