I went digging for this thread to post about a new movie I've just discovered, but HBO had archived the thread, so here's a new one.
The movie is "Let the Right One In," a Swedish vampire movie - and an excellent one.
If you rent it, be sure to get the one with the "theatrical" subtitles - one set of English subtitles is much better and more subtle than the other.
It's a beautiful and touching movie, with some scary and gruesome "vampire" moments.

wife Elizabeita and how she was tricked by his
enimes and he reaction to her death.!!!

Who doesn't love the Lost Boys, it's a classic....But Bram Stokers Dracula with Gary Oldman made me fall it love with Dracula...![]:)](http://boards.hbo.com/images/emoticons/devil.gif)

I was a kid!~I was so "Bad" I couldn't even watch

thanks for saying that you like lost boys as well i know it is a bit of a cult classic by now so i just didn't know how many of else out there like the film. i didn't mean cheesy as in bad because it is not. you are right about van helsing being the hybrid vampire werewolf situation. i couldn't get into it so i guess i just forgot about it. i might have to give it another chaance. i don't know maybe i will see about it.

Love at first Bite! Renfrey portrayed by Artie Johnson, classic.
blade #1
underworld all of them
the old christopher plumber movies he was scary
I can't remember the one with Leslie Nelson, I think it was Dead and Loving it? not sure but anything Leslie Nelson is in is hilarious. Just the sound of his voice makes me laugh.

true and mar: peeking in from work and noticed this thread on vamp movies.....did anyone see Rise: Blood Hunter (Lucy Lui was in it).....I though it was a pretty good movie (although when I looked it up on IMBD the reviews weren't great), the lead guy vampire was evil....very bloody.......

another film that "touched upon a hybrid Vampire/
Werewolf theme was VanHelsing"
VanHelsing was part human/part werewolf~~and
Dracula was part Vampire/part werewolf.
So far TrueBlood has taken bits and pieces from many
different Vampire storeies~it's going to be interesting
as to what shows up in season 2???
