Who's missing? [NEED YOUR FEEDBACK]

This is an ancient meme, so there are a lot of recent vampires missing (like Abigail, the guy from Sinners, even frickin Morbius.) Not to mention some classics like the Nosferatus, or Catherine Deneuve in The Hunger. I think it's a "who's your favorite?" or "which one are you?" kinda meme but the version I saw didn't have a title. I was gonna re-do the image, but I realized there are a lot of possibilities I'm not familiar with, especially from TV and video games.

Anyway, what vampire is missing from this image? Can be from Movies / TV / Gaming / Other.

The new Interview With A Vampire tv show. The dude who plays Lestat is excellent as is the main guy.

Sinners, that new Nosfetatu movie with Lily Rose Depp. Could include that god awful fifth season of AHS where Gaga plays a vampire with Matt Bomer.

But, above all, PLEASE include Colin Robinson from What We Do In The Shadows. The most important vampire of the 21st century.

The new Lestat is one of the most perfect castings I can recall. He was born for that role.

Also, "Fucking Colin Robinson......Fucking guy."

His French accent and pronunciation are awful though. I say that as someone who's spoken French is awful myself, but I can understand it perfectly. Everything about his performance is excellent until this ancient perfect being starts speaking his "first language" and it grates on my ears.

This is like the 3rd time I've thought I should watch What We Do in the Shadows. Whenever it comes time to pick something tho I always forget about it. I'ma have to make a list, there are a lot of good reccs in this post.

What We Do in the Shadows

One of the best imo, and impressively consistent from beginning to end

That's no vampire. That man has a toothpick in his mouth.

No vampire would think of such a clever disguise!

I hindsight he absolutely needed to accidentally stake himself with that toothpick

Speaking of old media… I was hesitant to recommend Carmilla, since I wasn’t sure you’d be looking for books (the most remarkable merit being that it was written before Dracula and even the invention of cinema), but TIL there is indeed a movie:

Or 2024 Nosferatu, which is like 1922 Nosferatu but with full penetration.

Consistency in naming the actress vs the character

Sergio@piefed.social · 2 pts · 249d (2 replies)

Yeah lel there are also a couple spelling mistakes/typos. I ain't hating tho, doing memes takes effort.

CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 249d (1 reply)

Indeed it does. Should it include anyone from What we do in the shadows?

Sergio@piefed.social · 2 pts · 249d

By popular demand, it seems so! I def. got to watch that show.

I don't see anyone from Supernatural

They also spelled Impaler and Twilight wrong (Twilight is spelled right the first time, wrong the second)

Not sure why they included Pam from True Blood but not Bill

Sergio@piefed.social · 1 pts · 248d (1 reply)

I've never seen True Blood, is it any good?

morphballganon@lemmynsfw.com · 3 pts · 248d

First season is fun if you like supernatural shit with a side of romance and horror

2nd and 3rd seasons are ok

4th really dropped the ball, never got farther

If you're going to include a puppet then you might as well bring in Alucard.

I had to look it up, I'm not familiar with anime vampires. Isn't there a Vampire Hunter D as well?

i was partly curious if people would assume I was talking about Alucard from Hellsing or Alucard from Castlevania X3

Dracula from Chica Vampiro. The show is bad but I think it would be a completely unique personnality in this panel.

A Colombian telenovela about vampires?!? LOLZ I gotta track it down!!!

pseudo@jlai.lu · 3 pts · 248d

The show is quite bad. Especially since I was watching a french version with poor dubbing and épisode that were clearly rearrange from how the relationship of the secondary character would go back and forth in time. Yet, I'm so upset I couldn't see it until the end!
