As 'Dracula' ushered in the golden age of horror films in America, studios and distributors were faced with a problem in their number one overseas market; the British Board of Film Censors was demanding extensive cuts, enforcing age restrictions and banning films. This work examines how and why the films were censored or banned and its effect.
