So I finally watched Bram Stokers Dracula after all of these years, loved it!

Here is my top 5 for all time vampire movies:

5. 30 Days of Night

4. The Underworld series

3. Bram Stokers Dracula

2. The Lost Boys

1. Interview with the Vampire

Honorable mentions: From Dusk till Dawn, Fright Night (the original), Blade series



IMO there is a big lack of vampire/werewolf type of movies. My favorites are usually the ones in the purest form. No need to add in all kinds of crazy elements and morph a vampire into something else. There is a rumor that they are making a new Interview with the Vampire. There are 12 total original books in the series.


What is your guys/gals top 5?

Salem's Lot. For some reason, that movie is etched into my head watching it as a kid. It's cheesy to watch it nowadays, but back then, it was a little scary.

'Twilght' is gay, abe. :D

I guess cape wearing funny accent Vampires never scared me. Werewolves are a little more scary. Zombies up the game quite a bit. The scariest movies are the realistic ones with psychotic killers.

I can see how glittery vampires can scare you and why you chose Twilight.

My wife and daughter love Twilight. I just gouged my eyes out when I watched it. :D I was stuck at the movie theater.

Yes, a remake of that is in order. I was a big fan of the Fright Night remake although it gets a lot of flack.

DenBronx nailed it in the OP. Underworld series is good stuff. Never seen Salem's Lot. They don't have it on Netflix or at the library.

It would of been better seen back in the 80s.

Meh, i still think Salem's Lot is good today. It still has that cold eeriness about it that i love.

Universal Monsters' Dracula. I enjoyed all Universal Monsters movies. Classic!

Universal Monsters got the best looking of Frankenstein in my opinion.

Don’t get me wrong it is still good & creepy, but some folks have a hard time with the quality movies were back then compared to today. They over analyze

1. Blade trilogy
2. Lost boys
3. Let the right one in (let me in remake was excellent too.)
4. Dusk til Dawn
5. (Wincing for the inevitable beatdown). Twilight series. I had a tween daughter when it came out, thought I would hate them, but I shit you not if you give them a chance they’re pretty damn good.

Yea, its kind of funny how many times Chloe has been involved with horror remakes (Let Me In, The Amityville Horror, Suspiria, The Eye, Carrie) but good for her.

Surprised no one has said Daybreakers or Dracula Reborn yet.

Northman
11-03-2018, 06:04 PM
Daybreakers wasnt bad but Dracula Reborn i didnt like. A lot had to do with Luke Evans who im not that crazy about as an actor. I did like his role in a horror movie called "No One Lives".

Yeah, I'm totally down for watching old flicks. In many ways they exceed today's films unless the execution of effects is too distracting. Today's producers care too much about the visual reality, the imagination is the better canvas.

Yeah, this would be around #5/6 for me, too.
