Bram Stokers Dracula is the best vampire film

[Scorchio84]

The 90's one

it's immense, I've watched it a hundred times & it never gets old, the costumes even & i'm aware of the dodgy accents

Near Dark or Let the right one in.

There you go.

Uhhh no it’s obviously Lost Boys, which also has the best soundtrack

Winona Ryder’s hair is AMAZING in Dracula though

Oh my god! you're right, The Lost Boys is amazing

near Dark is meant to be savage, thanks for reminding me

@Fudgetheparrot the costumes &n
wigs were spectacular

I love BSD too - three of us snuck into it when we were around 14 and I loved it then, and love it now.

Interview with the Vampire is up there as well

You are absolutely right. Nothing else movie wise has the glorious gothic romance

However....

The new interview with the vampire tv series smashes it no contest.

Definitely lost boys

I’ve watched and rewatched this so many times and always come away thinking it’s a masterpiece. I don’t even give a shit about Winona or Keanu’s accents, and don’t think Keanu is bad at all in it.

It looks absolutely amazing and even today it seems groundbreaking. The bit where they meet and watch the cinematograph is just stunningly romantic.

As for Gary Oldman, he’s never been sexier than in that scene with his long hair and Beatles specs. And his performance throughout is unbelievable. He should’ve won the Oscar.

It’s a sublime film.

Honestly I actually feel that the film was my sexual awakening (which is slightly troubling 😁) - the combination of Keanu, Winona and Sadie Frost being “taken” and “turned bad” had a lasting impression on me 😆

Behave yourself

It’s not my fault! It’s all the film.

It's up there for sure, but Interview with a Vampire tops it for Me!

The Lost Boys is my favourite (and the soundtrack is brilliant!)

Stake Land is also excellent.

Dust till dawn is the best vampire film hands down. Also love the old hammer films with Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. To me he shall always be Dracula.

I don't think you can beat the original 1931 Dracula film with Bela Lugosi in the title role.

Love The Lost Boys, and anything with Christopher Lee, but my guilty fave, in which I am possibly unique, is the original Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie. I hired the VHS one evening when I was about 17 to entertain myself when my parents were out and I enjoyed it so much that when I got to the end I immediately rewound it and watched it all over again.

DH is also a fan, albeit mostly for PeeWee Herman's death scene, and prefers it to the TV show.

I am also a fan of The Lost Boys.

Bram Stoker's Dracula annoys the hell out of me because it's as much Stoker's novel as North Korea is democratic. My biggest film wish is for a decent adaptation of the book.

So true 😀 It's not a bad film but the title is a complete misnomer.

I think it's got a lot of the Stoker novel that modern adaptations normally leave out. It's got a lot of other miscellaneous nonsense as well though.

Such a great book.

Love bram stokers Dracula but also love queen of the damned. Aaliyah was amazing as the queen of the vampires, really did the book justice

You’re not wrong OP. It is epic. Saw it on the big screen a while ago and it absolutely blew me away - and I’ve seen it many, many times. It’s a comfort watch for me!

I thought it was pretty faithful to Bram Stokers book, it was also probably my sexual awakening too @Ozgirl75

The Lost Boys definitely was, the dark haired one was a an 80's rock sight to behold
I didn't like Interview With a Vampire but maybe I should go back, I love Christian Slater

@Namerchangee I can't believe you saw it in the cinema recently!!! I'd love that
