Dracula
Barely OK 13 Points 1992

“Dracula” both disappointed and annoyed me, particularly having read the book beforehand. Everyone knows the story of the vampire count and his evil ways, but Coppola subverts the original and makes it both erotic and erratic. At turns surreal, thrilling, horrific and bewilderingly inchorent, F…

Oh my God. Literally. Amazingly funny. I had no idea JC was such a badass-martial-arts-master-vampire-slayer. Buffy should take a lesson.

OK 66 Points 2011

The beginning of the end is perhaps not the best episode to begin viewing the Twilight Saga, but family duty called. Which come to think of it, was the theme of the movie: Family Duty, Supernatural Style.

For a parent in tow, Breaking Dawn – Part 1 was more museum piece than entertainment…

Very Good 5 Points 1968

Christopher Lee stands out as the titular vampire in Freddie Francis’ gloriously corny Hammer concoction. His portrayal of Dracula might just me the most sexualised version of all time, no small feat when compared with the myriad poseurs and imitators that have taken on the role since his memorab…

An interesting and original idea that was well presented, but did not fully live up to the potential the story had.

Interview with ...
Great 66 Points 1994

Looking for a real vampire movie? Baroque, bloody, bawdy, not to mention strict with the rules, Interview with the Vampire fits the bill. Indeed, Anne Rice’s celebrated novel led to a quintessential vampire movie: star powered, obsessively detailed and expansively imagined. Even mature movie…

Great 103 Points 2008

Downright charming, this vampire movie. It’s also loads of fun, freshly exploiting well known vampire conventions while delivering enough gross-outs to trigger a handful of yucks and well earned laughs.

Vampires aside, Let the Right One In achieves real distinction as a perfect evocation of…

Dark Shadows
Great 83 Points 2012

There’s lots to sink your teeth into – lots to like and chew over – in the reimagining of Dark Shadows. Camp-classic TV soap opera, it stands up to eccentric genius Tim Burton’s silver screen amplification.
Who cares that the LOLs are a bit strained.

Chortles count as laughs and *Dark Shad…

I’m just gonna come out and say it: I love John Carpenter. The guy is one of the greatest filmakers of all time, in my opinion, and has never made a bad movie. And of all his movies, his most underrated has to be Vampires, which has a large cult following, but is still not talked about too much. …

Let Me In
Great 17 Points 2010

A bullied twelve year-old boy befriends a vampire-girl, who’s guardian needs to be a serial killer at night in order to feed her. Now that’s a horror movie! Nasty bullying scenes quickly put you on Owen’s side about wanting to hurt them — bad. You also quickly gain an affinity towards th…
