Hi Everyone,

I just found a posting that Aida Young (1920-2007) passed away in London on the 12th of August. She produced three earlier films that Mr. Lee had starred in; Scars of Dracula (1970), Taste the blood of Dracula (1970), and Dracula has risen from the grave (1968). She had a number of other credits to her name as Producer, Associate Producer and Assistant Director.

Sad news indeed, I always liked to see her name on the credits, it was great to see a woman in a position like that. She must have been a very special person indeed. Brave and determined to take on what has always been thought of as a "man's domain" She will be missed. Kaitlin

Damn ! I didn't know this. I met Aida a couple of times and she was witty and funny.
She loved talking about Hammer and the great times they all had .Sad news indeed.
