Sink Your Teeth Into These 25 Vampire Movies


The undead have always been the most fun of horror’s classic monsters.

The Hunger was the movie that filmmaker Tony Scott used to introduce himself to the world, and for that introduction, he said “bisexual New Wave vampirism!” We enter the film watching Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie be the sexiest duo imaginable in a New York night club with strobe lights setting off their bone structure as Bauhaus plays “Bela Lugosi Is Dead.” This alone is a marketing campaign for the joys of being an adult goth. You can pick your poison of Colin Farrell or Chris Sarandon, depending on your mood, and if you’re still clinging to some argument of originalism, know that Imogen Poots, Toni Collette, David Tennant, and the dearly departed Anton Yelchin fit like a glove into I, Tonya director Craig Gillespie’s classic horror-comedy remake. There’s only one movie on this list in which you can watch Grace Jones, wearing body paint applied by Keith Haring himself, as a stripper vampire who is the queen demon of a gentlemen’s club where lonely men are picked off from the herd and fed to her in a backstage sex lair.
