Queen of the Damned, all others trump in comparison
Please tell me you don't mean that awful Stuart Townsend raping of the excellent Anne Rice book. That movie is easily worse than Twilight.

The fact that you included Twilight and not Van Helsing, Underworld, Daybreakers, or Blade makes me want to hunt you down and hurt you

I'm not voting because Nosferatu, Salem's Lot, and Fright Night weren't added.

Hell even Once Bitten, The Lost Boys, or Blade could've been on there over most of them. The Dracula titles are good tho'.
Find me the poll option where I can include 70 options, and I'll find you a poll that could include all the Vampire movies I think are good.

Fright Night, Once Bitten, and Salem's Lot are okay but they have not aged well at all. Also Salem's Lot is technically a TV miniseries, so that's a tough call. Lost Boys suffers from the same problem of age but gets points for me due to nostalgia. I can still admit that it's not really a 'good' movie though.

Nosferatu, though, yes. Didn't include it due to obscurity.

Judging from responses so far though it seems like everyone has only seen movies in the last decade. Daybreakers, Blade, Underworld, 30 Days of Night, Let the Right One In, etc. Is everyone on the Escapist a teenager or do we just have very poor memories?

I didn't include Van Helsing because Van Helsing is fucking terrible (in a hilarious, career killing, B-Movie kind of way).

Again, only 8 options. Having two options for the lulz was necessary.

Blood: The Last Vampire (Live Action)

Combines all the aspects of the recent The Last Airbender with my favorite anime series:
IT RUINED IT. The producer had never even seen the damn anime. Worst movie of my life.
Wow I'm really glad I passed that one up. I love the anime and the movie looked kind of B to me, but I was going to see it. Now I probably won't. Comparing something to The Last Airbender is pretty damning.

Yes, I heard of this and saw the trailer.

Looks like shit compared to the original though.

I don't mean to sound like a fanboy, but goddamn, does Hollywood have to take every foreign movie and Americanize it?

Why did you include Twilight
Because I hate how people make idiotic remarks like "Twilight vampires aren't REAL vampires!" They're just as much vampires as any other fictional bloodsuckers. The only thing I actually like about the Twilight Saga is that it used the vampire mythos in a new and creative way to introduce it to a new audience. I'd prefer MORE experimentation in established genres, not less.

Twilight is bad because its poorly written, poorly acted, and manipulative. It is not bad because it doesn't have 'real vampires'.
Right. It's a very poorly written series, and you requested opinions on GOOD vampire movies.

I'm not much of a fan of vampire movies, but i still really enjoyed Daybreakers.

30 Days of Night was okay too, but they tried too hard and parts just flopped on its back (Eg. The baby scene)
