Movies What is the best vampire movie of all time?

Dracula aka Bram Stoker's Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola

How could I forget Blood For Dracula (aka Andy Warhol's Dracula) starring Udo Kier

Great question but it's probably because vampires are a cooler concept in general. Immortal undead creatures with super strength who drink blood and only come out at night? Come on, there's all kinds of badass shit you can do with that. Werewolves are basically just regular dudes with back hair who turn into wolves during a full moon. Whoopty fucking doo, that's just Barf from Spaceballs.

Yep. Not saying it can't be done, just that there's less to go on. Vampires are glamourous and kind of metro so there's all kinds of social/romantic complexity you can portray in a movie. With werewolves it's hairy dude who turns into a wolf, so you're pretty much limited to comedy or straight up horror. Agree there could be more of the latter.

Dracula could turn into a dog, interesting that as far as I know, no one has really explored/developed this ability in film.

I remember reading this somewhere but you're absolutely correct. Human+ intelligence + the ability to shapeshift into a dog, wolf, bat or mist at will + ability to command other animals basically makes you the ultimate natural predator even if we disregard the immortal undead bloodsucker part.

Coppola film had one scene where he looked like a werewolf, when he first bites Lucy (and the one where he turns into rats to escape).

You're looking for The Vampire Lovers from 1970

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Lost Boys made Vampires cool

Blade made them bad ass!

Keanu and Winona kinda ruined the film, but Gary Oldman played the best acted Vampire in a flick imo.

Oh...cant forget Fright Night. Another 80s classic vamp flick.

Bram Stoker’s gets bonus points for prime Winona Ryder in a see-though nightgown.

Bram Stokers Dracula is brilliant in every way (apart from Keanu’s accent )

 

[Deaths Head]

Gotta be From dusk till dawn. 1996. Right?

From the typical gangsta flick to the absolute chaos with the vampires. This is the GOAT. And George Clooneys best performance.

To silly to be the greatest vampire movie if we’re talking real movies without b movie scenes and premise thrown in there .

Ever: The Lost Boys

1980s: Fright Night (sequel was good also)

1990s: Interview with a vampire

2000s: 30 days of night

2010s: Let Me In

2020s: ? The Last Voyage of the Demeter.

The Last Voyage is def In the running, personally it’s my favorite. Not as epic as Lost Boys but I like a darker serious tone in these movies .

It’s how Nosferatu will try and be fir the masses like the remake of Salems Lott tried to be imop a disaster. Hope I’m wrong though a really great one is Blood Red Sky it’s a vampire action movie on Netflix really intense , the worst vampire movie is Ankle Biters , midget vampires I used to make everyone watch it .

I suggest you do the same only to people you want to punish .

Ahh, so another poster told me the Salems Lot remake remake was awesome. Are you saying it's not?

It’s good if you didn’t see the original, but even then it’s a cliche film that looks rushed . I saw the original on T.V and even then it’s just a solid story and eerie movie fir PG that th3 remake just doesn’t match . It’s a good movie I won’t knock it but fir me I won’t watch it again,I would definitely watch watch the originals more bc it has more replay value even if it’s draw out more .

Salems Lott remake is way down on the list though fir me it didn’t do the original Justice good actors couldn’t save the movie though thee dialogue is even just typical Hollywood stuff I won’t go into spoilers bc the ending also doesn’t make much sense .

I mean there’s way to much gimmicks in here like lighting crosses that disintegrate vampires etc ..this stuff just would never happen .

Nosferatu. 1979

Never saw that one or the 1930s one.

Saw the 2024 Nosferatu last week. Wasn't disappointed.

Thanks for answering. That's disappointing, Salem's Lot is one of my very favorite books of all time. Definitely my favorite vampire story by a long shot.

It’s worth a watch at least once it deserves that but fir me it wasn’t as good as the expectations I had ,I set high ones though but still it seemed shallow to gimmicky and made for the current generation who like gimmicky films , a little kid turned vampire killer also is silly that kid would hide under his bed for days if he saw a real vampire leave his window not read a comic book under the covers how to kill them enthusiastically this is just a big no no fir me personally .

If I came to a little kids window and with fangs out in mid air I can assure you he’s not going to get a comic book out and start reading like that just didn’t happen. Lol

I was lucky to read it first under strangely similar circumstances; it was the same time of year as in the story, I was working to clean this creepy ass house out of books (it was basically full) and it was in the exact same area. House in Falmouth and I drive the back roads to Windham around sunset (basically, the fictional town exists right there.) And then reading on a windy fall night once I get home. It was spooky, this is like 23 years ago

It sounds like you prefer the book as well??

I’ve never read the book I’m not a book guy admittedly , I know books are usually better though without crazy people in the studio ruining the movie . I read biographies mostly serial killers .

That’s actually the occupation I wrote down as a kid what I wanted to be a book writer,became an artist though .
