And it’s Akkard.

i DON’T… <i>turns off capslock</i>

Ahem…

I don’t know about anyone else, but I really liked Queen of the Damned. After that would be The Lost Boys. I like the movies that twist the normal ways of telling vampire stories - “We are good guys. We go mash evil undead.” is OK the first time but gets old after a while, at least to me.

You liked Queen of the Damned? wow, I just lost all respect for you. That was the worst movie I have ever made!

Rast if you are talking about the Queen of the Dammed movie, I’m sorry read the book, the movie is a complete hack compared to it.

Dracula: Dead and Loving It, suprisingly follows the book more closely than almost any other Dracula film.

I Liked Interview With The Vampire, it ruled and was a great conversion from the book. I was kinda hung up on the Vampire Chronicles during my senior year. Haven’t watched too many movies based on vampires, they are cool, I just don’t really like a lot of movies because they take forever to watch and they aren’t fun without friends.

Shadow of the Vampire is the one with the movie in a movie, with John Malkovich I think.

Yup, that’s the one. Thanks!:cool:

I LOVE Dead and Loving It. Mel Brooks is a comedy GOD.

I haven’t seen that yet…

Arucard ;p

Well, at least according to my sources. Didn’t pick up the DVDs yet, so I couldn’t tell for sure, but I’m pretty sure that it’s Akkard.

Really? Somehow I would have thought it would have been a movie by now. And I always assume Alucard, because of the stupid dracula-spelt-backwards cliche.

Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter. Best. Movie. Ever.

Never heard of it. Anime or live-action?

I liked Blade, but Blade 2 sucked.

Really? I thought 2 was better than one. The effects were better and the sotryline was more interesting. I liked the whole vampire-spec-ops thingy ot had going on, with an actual love-interest, just like normal action movies.

The effects were better? Like hell. The fights were terrible. The special effects were terrible, and in every fight, Wesley Snipes seemed to be doing rhythm gymnastics instead of fighting. I loved Blade because it wasn’t a normal action movie - thats what made it great.

Alright, admittadly some of the fight sequences were obviously CGI but I still thought it was a better film. I liked the story more than man-kills-vampire-about-to-raise-ancient-evil.

It’s a live action movie Pierson.

JC:VH? Hmm. I might try and see if I could find it then. Thanks.
