I think there needs to be a thread about this.

Here are mine:
The Lost Boys
Near Dark (the bar scene is fucking AMAZING)
Interview with the Vampire (my favourite)
Dracula dead and loving it (even better if you've seen Coppola's Dracula with Gary Oldman)
Underworld
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the film!)
Innocent Blood
Scooby Doo and the reluctant werewolf (Dracula was one of the main characters)
From Dusk til Dawn (all three, but mainly the first one)
Dracula 2000 (cus of Jonny Lee Miller)

The best:



(entire thing can be found for free here: Nosferatu)

The related-to-the-best-best:

I'll second all of the movies mentioned so far (that Scooby/Werewolf cartoon was awsome) and raise you a 'Vampire in Brooklyn'.

In fact, there are probably a few more but I can't think of them off the top of my head just now. Interview with the Vampire was gold and I loved the first three books.

nosferatu
shadow of the vampire
bram stoker's dracula
salem's lot
queen of the damned
the addiction
night watch/day watch

Two million years of human evolution and that's the best idea you can come up with?

I forgot to add Nightwatch / Daywatch, probably because I never think of them as vampire films. They are some of the fucking BEST movies I have ever seen. And, incredibly, Daywatch, the sequel, (that was too many commas to handle) was even better than Nightwatch.

I'm uber-excited for Twilight Watch.

Interview with the Vampire
The Addiction
Night Watch

Such a shame Day Watch was utter shit. Must get around to seeing Nosferatu at some point.

Interview with the Vampire! It was the second DVD I ever bought ...
10 Years ago. Wow.

Also, Underworld. Its a shit film but I do love it so

NightWatch was ok, almost, but DayWatch was terrible.

hold up,
daywatch was the sequel to nightwatch right?
I thought day watch was much better than Night watch, I love them both but the second one was more impressive to me.

but y'all are saying that day watch sucked.

Once Bitten & Fright Night

NightWatch (the first one, Nochnoy dozor) I thought was pretty decent.
Not fantastic or anything, but decent.

But the second one (DayWatch - Dnevnoy dozor) was kinda shitty -
The story went no where!
It just kinda floundered around for a while, and trailed off.
And the love interest ... went no where.
And there were big chunks of it that just kinda wandered around where nothing happened.

I didn't think it was particularly clear in what it was trying to say I guess.

It depends on what you want from a film ...
But if its a coherent story ... then this wasn't it for me.

What did you like about it?

It'll be interesting to see what happens with Twilight watch, what with Fox backing it financially.

Nosferatu scares me and Shadow of a Vampire gives me the creeps

I like vampire movies lots.

The Hunger
Near Dark
Nosferatu (the original and the Kinski/Herzog)
Martin
Shadow of the Vampire

I love the visuals, the action sequences, the really imaginative characters (I mean what with super powers and the way they looked), I love the two main characters (good vamp-man and his uber-hot sorta girlfriend who looks IDENTICAL to my best friend's mother, IDENTICAL) just cus there's something very down-to-earth about each of them. And that little conflicted boy is interesting. It was really long but I was really into it. I have a feeling that I could watch it again and again and just get even more into it and think about something in it differently each time.

I do get what you're saying though about the overall message being unclear.

I was just thinking about this the other day. I remember the poster for the movie, it was some chick who looked a little like Madonna in the "Rain" video, only she had red eyes and fangs.

I always wanted to see it, but my parents never let me rent it. Then I forgot about it for a bunch of years. I NEED TO SEE THIS FUCKING MOVIE!!!! Will have to check Amazon to see if it's out on DVD.

The Buffy movie has a bad rap. It sucks and everything, but as much as I love the show, sometimes it gets a little suffocating, what with all the continuity, characterization, subtext and all that. The show is like a well balanced meal and the movie is the bag of chips version of that. And I like chips.

Although the prom scene in Buffy (until the vampires show up anyway) is really amazing, and is possibly even better than the prom on the TV show. I don't know, I like both, but when Buffy is having a terrible time, and Pike shows up and they dance it's really good. Probably my favorite scene of the entire movie.

Well the Buffy movie is at least worth watching for Paul Reubens.
I haven't seen it in years, but isn't Hillarly Swank supposed to be a sexy cheerleader/valley girl/whatever?

Yeah, she was the head girl of that cunt pack Buffy hung out with. The one who bought the lush leather jacket Buffy had her eye on.

I think sexy is a stretch though. She always looks like she has heavy duty dental hardware, like those exterior braces and shit on even though she doesn't.

Ben Affleck also has a small role in the movie as a basketball player or something.

"Vampires can't come in unless you invite them!" - Buffy
"We did invite them....They're SENIORS!" - Hilary Swank's character

ah, such genius dialogue.

I also like the part about "You broke up with my machine?" after her boyfriend gives her that long thing about why he went to the prom with one of her best friends and didn't take her.

AND how great is it when she and Merrick are in the cemetery for the first slay and she just sits there and goes "Do you have any gum?"
