What is your favorite vampire film?
Mine is and always will be Interview with the Vampire. It is not exactly scary as it is gothic. It is more focused on the emotion of the vampire then on the idea of horror though in many aspects of the film the horror aspect is there. The fact these creatures have the ability to walk into society and just kill random people without being caught or even known is one of the greatist scares anyone can go through. I mean take the prostitute whose fears were brought by pure pleasure then she discoveries these were not typical men but monsters. The fact the emotions were there was far removed from Anne Rice novel. The emotions of being something sinister knowing full well of your past and who you once were is horrific enough. Many horror fans don't like this movie for the fact it is to "pretty" but just imagine walking down the street and entering a bar and some suductive female or male talks to you indicating interest then they take you to were ever you desire and kill you and those few seconds before death you feel the fear that your life will end in that moment. Or they might make you suffer intense pain before you die. The films idea wasn't exactly to scare you but to get the image behind the vampires themselves. Romantic vampires are known to be suductive in order to get their prey. Like anything they are probably the most feared of all creatures cause you never know when they are coming expecially with Anne Rice vampires in which the cross does no good and the only thing that can effect them is the sun.
