VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE VAMPIRE MOVIE - Poll closed

January 21st 2010 22:31
Nosferatu Max Schreck
With Twilight angst still hanging in the air, and Daybreakers science fiction breathing at the door I thought I’d put a poll together to find out just what are my True Believers’ favourite vampire movies. But let’s face it, there are at least 170 movies featuring Bram Stoker’s character Count Dracula, let alone the number of movies featuring simply vampires and those that like to drink the blood of others.

I’ve put together a list of sixty-one titles, with an option of “other” for any title(s) I’ve not included that any reader wishes to vote for (there may be two or three I suppose). Vote three points for your top favourite movie, then two points for the next favourite, and one point for your third favourite. Type your selection with the points in brackets beside it ie Let the Right One In (3), 30 Days of Night (2), Nosferatu the Vampyre (1).

To add a bit of humour give a big fat zero (0) to a movie you think is the worst vampire flick you’ve ever seen (you’ll probably need to add that title yourself, but hey, you may find it in the list of contenders).

Come Friday February 26th I’ll tally the votes and we’ll see which vampire movies have the deepest bite and which ones truly suck. Now please don’t be afraid to have your say via the comment section below, remember every vote counts True Believers!

The Addiction

(3) Interview with the vampire
(2) From dusk till dawn
(1) Let the right one in

(0) Blade 3 (that movie was so pointless)
(-2) Twilight series (it was a movie on sparkly pixies not vampires)
(-3) The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires (It's pretty much as ridiculous as it sounds martial arts and horror do not mix)

Here we go....

{3}. Let the Right One In
{2}. Shadow of the Vampire
{1}. Near Dark

(I really have to give honorable mention to Interview for the AMAZING score. I still listen to the soundtrack CD when I write.)

{0}. TWILIGHT!

3.Bram Stokers Dracula
2.Interview with the vampire
1.30 Days of night

0. TWILIGHT - both of them are the worst films, terribly directed , badly played, awful use of pretty much every film technique known to man. The worst part, PEOPLE ACTUALLY SEE THESE, AND LIKE THEM, PAY MONEY FOR THEM.
