Vampires
Since I am the "Vampire Princess" I wonder what is everyones favorite Vampire flick?
Mine has to be Interview with the Vampire... It was a film not really meant for horror though there was horror influence to it but I think the film was meant to capture vampires as souls that are lost in a world that created them cruel. Anne Rice create romantic vampires... She was not the first but she was the one that really expaned the litature romance of a vampire. I always thought they were more dangerius then any zombie or villian anyone can create and my reason for that they are unexpected. They are romanitic and can lore victumes more easily then any other creator on the face of the earth besides humans themselves.
Favorite Vampire actor?
I have to go with one of the most ultimate vampires Dracule and i have to say the best style of Dracula came from Gary Oldman.... (I think that is his name it is late so I kind of get confussed) but anyway he showed two sides of a vampire which you can never see any where else in film. The humanity of a vampire and the evil of a vampire. In the film Dracula they really focused on the fact Dracula is Vladimir or Vlad... Which is interesting because the book itself never mentioned Vlad anywhere but his name.. But thats beside the point. Know to capture the appeal of a Romanian Prince most of been interesting. Vlad Dracula is one of the most skepticle myths in are history. With all the legends behind Vlad because of Stoker and his work its no wonder an actor protrays Dracula as Vlad... The whole look of the long haired Romanian is no surprise to me.
Anyway a lot of people can protray vampires well.... Some who never had the pleasure being one you can see a sexual vampire within them. Even films that portray vampires as ugly beings always have a sex appeal. Take the film Vampires... I never seen a film that devotes it whole idea that vampires are merely walking dead yet have the main villian a beautiful suductive vampire.
Traditionally vampires are more hideaus like Nosferatu then of Gary Oldman. But hey thats just how the media portrays vampires.
