They're all great films. Blade, Sinners, Interview with the vampire & Nosferatu (1922) are among my favourite vampire movies as well. Which Nosferatu movie do you like best?
I love the 1922 movie. Of course you can't compare it with a modern movie, but Max Schreck as Nosferatu is great and I like the way shadows are used as a technique.
Yeah, Sinners is great!
What we do in the shadows is a lot of fun, although I like the tv-show even more.
The other films I haven't seen yet. Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter and Morbius I’ve never even heard of before. I’m adding them to my watch list straight away. 🙌
All great movies. Let the right one in (the Swedish version of 2008; I haven't seen the American remake) is my No. 1 vampire movie. I love it! How did you like the book?
Haven't seen Queen of the Damned, but it's got Aaliyah, so it must have SOME redeeming quality beyond soundtrack. Beyond the soundtrack, "Gothic Vampires from Hell" has NO redeeming qualities. And I guess "worst with the best" would be an average of redeeming qualities with negative qualities.
Thanks for the links to the movies. Vampire Circus sounds very interesting. I'll put it on my watch list.
And I'm now curious about your honorable mentioned movies. XD I think, I'll give them a go as well, one day
Vampire Circus is a bad movie that is still fun to watch (especially with other people). The "Honorable Mentions" are bad movies that are no fun to watch.
For Action Vampire Movies:
5. Dracula Untold
4. Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
3. Van Helsing
2. From Dusk Till Dawn
Blade
For Non-Action Movies:
5.Daybreakers
4. Sinners
3. Shadow of the Vampire
2. Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)
Interview with the Vampire
And Honorable Mentions:
6. Love at first Bite
5. Dracula: Dead and Loving it
4. Renfield
3. The Breed
2. The Last Voyage of the Demeter
Vampire's Kiss
Making a top 5 list is so hard! There are tons of great (and so bad their great) movies in all different genre. I didn't even mention any of the Christopher Lee movies, and sometimes you just want to revisit the old Universal monsters. The Spanish language version of the 1931 Dracula also doesn't get nearly enough love. This is a great way to remind yourself that fans of vampire movies are spoiled by choice compared to other supernatural mythos movies.
That’s true! There’s a huge selection of vampire films. And the differences between them are just as vast. No matter what sort of film you like, you’ll find a vampire film to suit your taste. That's why it never gets boring to watch vampire movies 😁
Although I prefer Nosferatu from 1922, Nosferatu 1979 is also a great movie. Blade is my favourite vampire action movie. The opening scene (the blood shower) is one of my all-time favourite scenes in vampire films. And lf course, the lost boys is a cult classic

makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 142d
I should have specified, 2024. I've seen the 22 one and it's alright but it's a little too of its time for me

Great selection of films. I love Near Dark. The way the film uses sunlight as a threat is brilliant.

What We Do In The Shadows
Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter
Night Watch and Day Watch (two separate movies)
Sinners
And the best vampire movie of all time: Morbius

Oh god, don't add morbius. That was a joke. That movie is horrible, lol.
The others are actually good, though.

It is. Fright Night as well.

You guys need to see Only Lovers Left Alive. Directed by Jim Jarmusch, starring Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston.

I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to disagree with you on the worst vampire movie with the best soundtrack. That would be Queen of the Damned.

I love it, that Sinners is mentioned so often.

Alinska@feddit.org · 2 pts · 142d
As long as it is fun to watch, I don't care if it is a bad movie. E.g. I had fun with "priest" and well.... I wouldn't call it a good movie 😅

Five is hard to pare down to. I haven't seen Near Dark enough on these comments, if y'all haven't seen it, go watch it.
30 Days of Night. Let the Right One In. WWDITS. Fright Night (85), Nosferatu (24)
