Question: Are the directors of both films The Rebel (1993 Film) and The Brides Of Dracula from the same country?

Dracula A.D. 1972 is a 1972 horror film, directed by Alan Gibson and produced by Hammer Film Productions. It was written by Don Houghton and stars Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing and Stephanie Beacham. Unlike earlier films in Hammer's Dracula series," Dracula A.D. 1972" had( at the time of filming) a contemporary setting, in an attempt to update the" Dracula" story for modern audiences. Dracula is brought back to life in modern London and preys on a group of young partygoers that includes the descendant of his nemesis, Van Helsing. It is the seventh Hammer film featuring Dracula, and the sixth to star Christopher Lee in the title role. It also marked the return of Peter Cushing as Van Helsing for the first time since" The Brides of Dracula"( 1960), and was the first to feature both Lee and Cushing in their respective roles since" Dracula"( 1958). It was followed by the last film in Hammer's Dracula series to star Christopher Lee," The Satanic Rites of Dracula", which similarly utilized a modern setting and featured most of the same central characters. <SEP> It stars Spanish actress Penélope Cruz. It also features Stefano Dionisi, Lorenza Indovina and Marco Leonardi. In Italian, the language the film was originally released in, the film is titled La Ribelle. The Rebel is a 1993 Italian drama film, originally released as based on the novel' Storia di Enza', which was written and adapted by the film's director, Aurelio Grimaldi. <SEP> He was the first to bring gothic horror alive in full colour, and the sexual overtones and explicit horror in his films, while mild by modern standards, were unprecedented in his day. His first major gothic horror film was" The Curse of Frankenstein"( 1957), which launched Hammer's association with the genre and made British actors Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee leading horror stars of the era. He went on to film several adaptations of classic horror subjects, including" Dracula"( 1958)," The Mummy"( 1959), and" The Curse of the Werewolf"( 1961). Terence Fisher( 23 February 1904 – 18 June 1980) was a British film director best known for his work for Hammer Films. Given their subject matter and lurid approach, Fisher's films, though commercially successful, were largely dismissed by critics during his career. It is only in recent years that Fisher has become recognised as an" auteur" in his own right. His most famous films are characterised by a blend of fairytale myth and the supernatural alongside themes of sexuality, morality, and ‘ the charm of evil ’. Drawing heavily on a Christian conservative outlook, there is often a hero who defeats the powers of darkness by a combination of faith in God and reason, in contrast to other characters, who are either blindly superstitious or bound by cold, godless rationalism. For detailed discussions of Fisher's work, see" Terence Fisher: Horror, Myth, and Religion" by Paul Leggett( McFarland and Co, 2002)," British Film Makers: Terence Fisher" by Peter Hutchings( Manchester University Press, 2013), and" The Films of Terence Fisher: Hammer Horror and Beyond" by Wheeler Winston Dixon( Auteur Publishing, 2017). <SEP> Victor Brooks( 11 November 1918 – 19 January 2000) was a prolific English film and television actor. He specialised in character roles, police inspectors in particular, in British thrillers such as" Cover Girl Killer"( 1959)," Witchcraft"( 1964), and" Devils of Darkness"( 1965). His best known films are probably" Goldfinger"( 1964)," The Brides of Dracula"( 1960) and" Billy Budd"( 1962). On television, he was noted for playing a pipe- smoking authority figure in crime series like" Dixon of Dock GreenGideon's WayDetectiveZ Cars" and" Crown Court". He also appeared in the television series" Raffles", in the recurring role of the Albany porter. <SEP> His film" The Whores" was entered into the 1994 Cannes Film Festival. Aurelio Grimaldi( born 22 November 1957) is an Italian film director and screenwriter. <SEP> Directed by Terence Fisher, the film stars Peter Cushing, David Peel, Freda Jackson, Yvonne Monlaur, Andrée Melly, and Martita Hunt. The Brides of Dracula is a 1960 British horror film made by Hammer Film Productions. The film is a sequel to Hammer's original" Dracula"( US:" Horror of Dracula")( 1958), though the vampires possess abilities denied to vampires in the previous film, much like those in the original novel. Alternative working titles were Dracula 2 and Disciple Of Dracula. Dracula does not appear in the film( Christopher Lee would reprise his role in the 1966 film) and is mentioned only twice, once in the prologue, once by Van Helsing. Shooting began for" The Brides of Dracula" on 16 January 1960 at Bray Studios. It premièred at the Odeon, Marble Arch on 6 July 1960. The film was distributed theatrically in 1960 on a double bill with" The Leech Woman".
