Dracula Prince of Darkness (1966), first Hammer horror film to suggest that vampirism is all about awakening female sexuality.
That's not to say the movie is in favour of female sexuality. The fact that it clearly made the director uncomfortable is what makes it such an interesting movie.
Includes a horrifying staking scene.

I Walked With a Zombie (1943), the best voodoo movie ever made and the best zombie movie ever made. A superb example of subtle intelligent character-driven horror.
Directed by Jacques Tourneur for Val Lewton's RKO B unit.
Inspired by Charlotte Brontë’s great gothic novel Jane Eyre.
It treats voodoo quite seriously and without sensationalism.
