Yeah, I recommend DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS.  It's a little weird and arty though.     I need to see VAMPYR and the Jean Rollins movies (RAPE OF THE VAMPIRE, etc.).

Yeah, I recommend DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS.  It's a little weird and arty though.    I need to see VAMPYR and the Jean Rollins movies (RAPE OF THE VAMPIRE, etc.).  

I'm not really into weird and arty films...but for vampire films...it seems to work. The world of the vampire seems weird.BLOOD AND ROSES is weird and arty...but I loved it.

VAMPYR (1932) is one of the strangest films I've ever seen. I'ts like watching a nightmare-the kind where you walk in a haze and just float around. Very surreal.
It's said that Dreyer saw the Lugosi version of DRACULA and said-"I could make a picture like that." Not like Dracula at all. MUCH stranger!

As far as Jean Rollin goes-I havn't seen any of his work! I really should!

The vampires victum turns...from VAMPYRE (1932)

20.VAMPIRE'S KISS

While I haven't seen 20 vampire films yet I am very happy to see Bela represented. 

As for the vampire films I have seen: All the Blade fimsl and Dracula Dead and Loving It I liked. The only one I've seenand hate is Jennifer's Body. I'm not sure if Bela's character from Plan 9 From Outer Space counts, as his charcater is an un dead vampire. If it does that's the best vampire films I've seen.

The only one I've seenand hate is Jennifer's Body.

Jennifer's Body isn't a Vampire movie. What gave you the idea?

[Chainsawmidget]

Fright Night
From Dusk til Dawn
Vampire Hunter D (the original)
Dracula (the Lugosi classic)
Dracula (the first Christoper Lee version)
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein (It's got Dracula in it.  I'm going to count it)
Blade
Demon Under Glass (An obscure movie, but a great one)
Daughters of Darkness
The Bare Breasted Countess
Nosferatu (original)
Nosferatu (kinski version)
Shadow of the Vampire
Lost Boys
Innocent Blood
Captain Kronos Vampire Killer

[RCMerchant]

Bob-though Bela wore the Dracula costume (it was actually an outake for an unmade Wood film-Bela was dead by the time PLAN 9 was made) the undead in PLAN 9 were actually  zombies. Bela also wore the Dracula cape in SPOOKS RUN WILD and OLD MOTHER RILEY MEETS THE VAMPIRE...and wasn't an actual  vampire in those films either. Low budget film makers were exploiting his Dracula image. He was broke. He did it. A man has to eat.
He WAS a vampire-and very Draculean,in RETURN OF THE VAMPIRE.
He appeared as a Dracula type charecter in MARK OF THE VAMPIRE(1935)...but alas...well..if you haven't seen the film,I won't spoil it. It IS a great performance...and a vampire film.

Demon Under Glass (An obscure movie, but a great one)

Good call. Another great obscure Vampire movie is The Girl with the Hungry Eyes:



and The Addiction (1995). Nadja (1994) on the other hand was very "rofl" (bad).
