10 Best Vampire Films?

[tyson]

I don't know if this should be in polls or not since I don't really have a list to choose from. Anyways, please pick your topic 10 because I'm looking for stuff to check out.

[Paff]

I'm gonna shoot from the hip here, meaning I just KNOW I'm gonna omit some favorites.

But here are 10, in NO PARTICULAR ORDER.

1. Horror of Dracula
2. Martin
3. Fright Night
4. (Andy Warhol's) Blood for Dracula
5. Innocent Blood
6. Bram Stoker's Dracula
7. Brides of Dracula
8. Dracula, Prince of Darkness
9. Vampire Hunter D
10. Captain Kronos, Vampire Hunter

There are some others, but I'm gonna limit myself to 10. And I bet I'll remember some other favorites later too...

[rhett]

Here's my list:

1. Nosferatu, the Vampyre
2. Martin
3. Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror
4. Blood for Dracula
5. Dracula (1931)

I don't consider Lair of the White Worm a vampire movie at all, otherwise it would be in the top 3.

[DefJeff]

well, i feel Female Vampire is the best vampire movie ever made.

Vampire Hunter D is great, and Martin is cool too

[Gnaghi]

vampire in brooklyn...

no really has anyone seen this... i just saw a trailer for it on an old tape and remembered i never saw it. is it any good?

[Deaddevilman]

Eddie wishes this movies was half as good as the Golden Child.

[Gnaghi]

i wish eddie never grew up. i want the raw and delirious eddie back. i guess you can say i highjacked this thread.. so go about your business as usual and don't support this terrorist. :banana:

[Deaddevilman]

Gnaghi whats up with the Unearthed promo?

[Gnaghi]

say what in the who now?

[Deaddevilman]

Your signature has a link to Unearthed Films and Guinea Pig Films. I was just wondering what the link was. Do you work for them, like the films.....

[Gnaghi]

yeah i do the covers, menus, ads, website... though not any of the guinea pig covers.

[Gnaghi]

you learn so much about so many things.

[Deaddevilman]

Interesting, I had contacted Stephen once over the qualitly of the translaton on Devil's Experiment.

[Gnaghi]

what did you say it sucked or what?:banana:

[Deaddevilman]

Not sucked, but a lot was left out. Not that it changed the movie much, but it's obvious it was a quick job and know matter how bad a writer you are, you're not going to use the same phrase a 100 times.

Not really, I didn't find it funny, although I doubt it was intended to be. Eddie Murphy was sub par in this film.

[Andrew]

I don't really like vampire movies all that much, but....

MARTIN
BLOOD FOR DRACULA
HORROR OF DRACULA
NOSFERATU: PHANTOM DER NACHT

I'm only putting 4, as those are the only ones I really like.

Worst? FRIGHT NIGHT! Second worst...LOST BOYS :D. I'm starting to think I just have some hidden beef with the subgenre though.

[Grim]

In no order.......

Lost Boys
Near Dark
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Fright Night
Dracula (1931)
Nosferatu (old one)
Nosferatu:Phantom der nacht
Horror of Dracula
Interview with the Vampire
Dracula 2000 (SIKE!!!!!!!!)

I can't think of a tenth actually, I still need to get Blood for Dracula.

Actually, it's in my review queue, so you'll see a full review on here soon. I watched the first episode, and it seemed very intellectual and well....British, so it's gonna take some time for me to properly digest it for a good review.

It definitely seems to be a Sci-Fi update of the vampire legend. Forget fangs, Van Helsing, crosses, and Christopher Lee.

cool, look forward to reading your review. I was tempted to buy ultraviolet a while ago but got turned off in the end because it only ran for one season and i heard it left things a bit unfinished, will be interested to hear what you have to say

[Grim]

I watched my Bram Stoker's Dracula VHS last night (I haven't seen the dvd at a good price anywhere) and it's a damn fine movie. I need to squeeze it into my top 20 somewhere. I'm currently in the process of writing my own version of the book, which is one of my favorites. I've decided that instead of taking place in 1897 like the book, my screenplay will take place in 1997. I'm doing my best though to make sure it doesn't become "Hip, Sexy, and Scary" like most films these days. My story is also focusing on Jonathan Harker a little more than the other films did.

My Best Friend is a Vampire Aw man I love that movie! For me, worst ever would probably be FRIGHT NIGHT.

I Agree, Fright Night... :sleepy:

There's not very many vampire movies I like.

[David666]

1. Interview With the Vampire
2. Coppola's Dracula
3. Queen of the Damned
4. Salem's Lot
5. Near Dark
6. Lemora
7. Shadow of the Vampire
8. The Hunger
9. Dance of the Damned
10. Daughters of Darkness

Honorable mention: Blood and Donuts (where's my DVD?)

Although I personally love films like Vamp, Fright Night and The Lost Boys I much prefer my vampire films to be dark and ominous with splashes of really demented humor. The comedy in Shadow of the Vampire, Near Dark and Queen of the Damned more justly fits the demented aspects that such creatures would without a doubt have.

[The Chaostar]

1. Shadow Of The Vampire
2. Martin
3. Nosferatu (both)
4. The Reflecting Skin
5. Horror Of Dracula
6. Bram Stoker's Dracula
7. The Hunger
8. Near Dark
9. Interview With A Vampire

FRIGHT NIGHT and BLOOD FOR DRACULA are cool and VERY enjoyable film but vampire films must have a serious tone to work for me.

[KillSwitch]

Innocent Blood. :)
