Good thinking!  I think I'll replace a less popular one with Frank Langella.  I completely forgot about him and he did cause a bit of a sensasion at the time.  Thanks!

He sure did for me, riding across the moors on that big black horse with his cape flapping behind him!  Wink  Grin

Not that I mean to criticize or anything, but I just looked over the list again and I suddenly noticed it's missing Frank Langella. To the best of my limited knowledge, his Dracula, which I believe he first played on the stage before it was made into a movie at the end of the 1970s, was the first to really play up the sexual angle. At least, the film had a very stylized but pretty obvious sex scene in it.



Frank Langella will always be the Vampire of my Heart.  Kiss

I don't see Leslie Nielson on the list for Dracula: Dead and Loving It.  I didn't realize that was a Mel Brooks film.  I'll have to rent it one of these days.  Meanwhile, it's always been my favorite title for a Dracula film.  Grin

Then there's my second favorite title, which came out the same year as Langella's film: Love at First Bite, starring George Hamilton as Count Vladimir Dracula.   Grin

I purposefully left out Leslie Nielsen and George Hamilton (eww!).  Also Count von Count and Count Chocula, lol!

I remember that the blonde vampire from The Brides of Dracula stirred some confusing feelings within me when I saw it back in the sixties.  One of my first (memorable) homoerotic moments!  Tongue

Well, I thank you for including my "vamp" Mick St. John. Damn, it pissed me off when Moonlight wasn't renewed.  Angry

Well, one who scared me shitless (not on your list) was Reggie Nalder who played "Barlow" on "Salem's Lot".

Only that we didn't see him with his shirt open more often!  Grin

The long list of choices makes me realize how incredibly many popular culture vampires there are, and how few of them I've actually "met"!  *worries*

My vote goes to Spike. (I'm a big Angel fan, but being an avid Angel/Buffy 'shipper I'd rather he save his bite for Buffy.  Tongue )  And Spike just is.... something else.  Tongue He's so effulgent!  Grin



I think Louis de Pointe de Lac would also be high on my list, but that would be the Louis I had in my head after reading Interview with the Vampire a couple of years before the film came out. I don't think Brad Pitt did my imaginary, sensuous, dark and despairing Louis any justice at all.

The Louis we meet in Sting's "Moon over Burbon Street" - now that is my Louis. Love that song!

  Yes, Mikaela. I see a vampire movie evening in your near future Smiley





My soul is wrapped in harsh repose,
Midnight descends in raven-colored clothes,
But soft... behold!
A sunlight beam
Butting a swath of glimmering gleam.
My heart expands,
'tis grown a bulge in it,
Inspired by your beauty...
Effulgent.

He really was a bloody bad poet

Yes he really was.  Grin

He got better though once he found his true vocation and inspiration in life:



I was gonna post a pic of Spike all alone, but I figure James Marsters must be one of those guys who look more Spike-y in live action than in static posed images.... however the above with Drusilla is my iconic Spike, I think.
