Title: Best Vampire Movies
Post by: randomer909 on August 13, 2009, 08:18:57 pm
Since there has been talks of vampire movies on Kez's intro, I though I should make a topic aboot it. Just pick your favourite vampire films and say why. It's a tough chocie for me but I went with the underworld series. 30 days of night does have a kick-ass feature of their own language! But Kate Beckinsale it tight leather costume and nice fights takes the win for me

Bram Stokers Dracula is still one of my all time favs.  I bought the special edition just a little while ago.  In respect for when the book was published all the special effects in the movie were completely manual... Absolutely zero digital editing, amazing.

aw you made me a thread! yay!

i have to say i really like Underworld series for kind of action/fighty vampire films and i agree Kate Beckinsdale is awesome as a heroine.

for more moody stuff i like Interview with the Vampire (i cant believe thats Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt tho!) and altho i preferred the book i kind of liked Queen of the Damned (book is way better tho).

i liked 30 days of night too cos it was so eerie and mysterious.

anyone seen Let the Right One In?  i really want to but i havent yet.

That's one of the funniest horror movies of all time! Weta workshop boys playing up after all that work on 'Lord of the Rings'. I liked 'Interview with a Vampire' too as well as Bram Stokers 'Dracula'.

Haven't seen 'Underworld' yet, but would like too when I get time.

I'm going to go with "From Dusk 'Till Dawn" which also happens to be one of my favorite movies as well.  It's just a fun 1970s style drive-in, shoot-em-up movie.

Oops I forgot about that one. Talk about changing course part way through a movie. That tavern scene comes from waaay out of left field. It's seriously wierd, but brilliant at the same time.

I am by no means a vampire expert or huge fan of any sort. Anything but Twilight gets my vote. Vampires should not be a bunch of glittering drama queens.

As one demotivational poster I read, "The story of one girl's choice between necrophilia and bestiality."

out the options i chose Blade. The first one was a great movie, its a shame the sequels let it down. I think wesley snipes made a great Blade too. Although its a little annoying how they make him out to be so much better in the films than he actually is in the comics

I liked the "Queen of the Damned", for a great part because of the awesome soundtrack ^^


Good thread, it give me inspiration on a few movies to find for myself (http://smileys.sur-la-toile.com/repository/Fantastique/smileycula.gif) (Especially Stuart's "Black Sheep" thingie  :345678 )

Title: Re: Best Vampire Movies
Post by: AElf on December 28, 2010, 02:00:52 pm
In no particular order my favourites are:

"A Vampire in Brooklyn" (Eddie Murphy, 1995) -- both funny and scary.
"Blood for Dracula" (a.k.a. Andy Warhol's Dracula, 1974) -- ridiculously campy.
"Love at First Bite" (George Hamilton, 1979) -- very funny!
"Count Dracula" (Louis Jourdan, BBC miniseries, 1977) -- brilliant scary vampire flick!
"The Lost Boys" (1987) -- campy.
"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (TV series) -- great combination of humour, fright & teen angst -- I could see myself and some of my friends in a lot of the supporting roles.

I haven't see either "Let the Right One In" or "Black Sheep" but I'm going to.  Especially "Black Sheep," it looks like a must see.

I also like this one:

Violent, sexy and has all that 80's vibe.

"Interview with the Vampire" is the best movie about vampires

This weekend, I saw Let the Right one in's remake, Let me In:

(http://www.filmofilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/let_me_in_poster_a-535x792.jpg)

Although it's not as spectacular as the original one, it's a great movie, specially because of Chloe Moretz, this girl has what it takes to be a big actress in the future.

The first half is a road movie, but then they walk into a bar full of vampires! :345678

John Carpenter's Vampires is the best. John Carpenter is one of the kings of Horror with The Thing, Christine, They Live, The Fog, Halloween, Dark Star, and several others.

The Strain. A TV series now in its fourth series. Spine-tingling, visceral drama horror, merging vampiric lore with a worldwide epidemic plague.

Its debatable whether this is a vampire movie but, Vampires Kiss is one of my favorites.
 
(https://s26.postimg.org/fnzwk2u8l/nic_cage_vampire.png) (https://postimg.org/image/fnzwk2u8l/)

I like to think the vampire is real and responsible for the main characters descent into madness.  There are a bunch of little winks towards the old school Nosferatu in there too. 

Shadow of the Vampire is really good, but you hardly hear of it.  A Willem Dafoe vampire is awesome :happy

Only lovers left alive from Jim Jarmusch is one of my favorite vampire movies. It's artistic, interesting music, and a unique love story within the genre.
