from ‘duck til dawn’ is the most overrated movie perhaps of all time … seriously, it’s like a cop movie consisting only of car chases … what’s the point? the story line is thin at best (no wonder quentin tarantino was involved) and it’s just a bunch of hyperkinetic fight sequences … so what? it’s not interesting and is just the same thing again and again, all night long … really a sad movie for all the stars in it …

‘fright night’ … great underrated movie … funny, scary, and has a story line … plus roddy mcdowell is perfect as the tv vamp hunter …

the blade series was good, well above average for a three pic serial of it’s kind … kristofferson is in one of his strongest roles as the mentor whistler … jessica biel is to die for in the third movie … good action but has a strong story line as well …

‘underworld’ was interesting for two movies … the third just went south tho … i mean the ‘big’ castle is like a california bungalow … very sad and undersized … and kate beckinsdale was really needed for the third … but the first two are well worth watching, good action sequences along with a good storyline …

‘30 days of night’ is probably the most inventive and interesting vampire movie in a long time … none of this ’sparkle’ vamp as the author mentions … hard core and the undead look dead for god’s sake … great premise with the town in darkness at the arctic circle for a month … great idea and hard to believe no one came up with it before this ‘graphic novel’ appeared … great look for the film too … snow and blood work well together … and the ‘muffin muncher’ rocks …

‘let the right one in’ … outstanding … one of the best movies i’ve seen in a while period, any genre … the two main kids are outstanding in it and love how the movie starts looking like something completely different than where it goes … cleverly written, well acted, the feel of the movie is creepy and dank and frighteningly ‘commonplace’ settings … a wonderful contrast to the final scene … don’t bother with the coming american remake of this fantastic foreign film … the director of ‘cloverdale’ has signed on … nuff said …

‘van helsing’ was another movie without a storyline … or the storyline was ‘let’s throw in every monster we can think of and then we don’t need a storyline’ … .which is what they did and much like the old ‘abbot and costello meet the werewolf’ or ‘dracula versus billy the kid’ the result is sad, worthless, and bad, very bad … this is why hollywood is a home to so many unoriginal writers, directors, producers, and actors … hollywood loves this type of idea … ‘get everything and throw it in the movie’ rather than think up a good story, write and rewrite until it’s perfect and find the right people to make the movie, not the guy you got coked up with last night and promised a part to …

so about a half-good list

The Lifeforce movie/story makes vampires far more interesting than they have been presented in the majority of movies and TV shows. The flick is based on the novel The Space Vampires by Colin Wilson. I’m surprised that neither the book nor the movie are more popular.

Personally, I hope they remake the flick.

I’m not really into Hammer’s old flicks. I will check out The Forsaken. Thanks for the recommendation.

Do you think Lifeforce is a neat and original take on vampire lore? i mean do you like the film’s concept that the vampires of legend were born from those alien vampires? i mean they aren’t typical vampire stereotypes of fangs and sucking blood but energy instead because they are Psychic-vampires. Ever heard of Psychic-vampires? do you think Lifeforce has a good twist by saying that vampires did existed through time but instead of being the undead they were aliens?

Vorvon on Buck Rogers could have been mentioned since he’s also a space vampire that does the same thing as Lifeforce’s alien vampires and there’s Vampirella comics.

Have you seen The Forsaken? another fun vampire movie that won’t make you gay. Also see Hammer’s vampire movies like Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter to Vampire Lovers, Vampire Hunter D 1 & 2, Blood The Last Vampire (Anime), etc.

David Bowie is actually bisexual as he doesn’t bone any man in the movie but Catherine, The Hunger could have been on that list since it won’t make you gay but feel good about seeing two women getting it on even with a vampire lady. What do you think of sparkles?

BTW, this list was made back in November of last year. I’ll be updating it again soon (i.e. Daybreakers needs to be on this list). Feel free to nom your favs.

Hi Jon. I’m actually a big fan of the Interview with the Vampire film and novel (and all the books in Ann Rice’s Vampire Chronicles). I think Lestate walked the line, but was vicious enough to be an evil bloodsucker. Louie, however, I feel led to the current crop of brooding, sensitive vampires that play more towards tween, gay, and menopausal romance fantasy than horror.

As for The Hunger, you’re 100% correct in regards to Surandon & Devenue. Very hot. Unfortunately, the inclusion of David Bowie (in anything!) automatically makes it gay. HAHAHA!

Where’s The Hunger? Now that is a hot and artsy not-so-gay vampire movie with Susan Surandon and Catherine Devenue getting it on in the nude plus David Bowie watching. Now that’s key!

Do you think Interview with the Vampire is very gay too?
