But the only really frightening vampire ever was Klaus Kinski's Nosferatu:
But then, Kinski himself was always creepy to me. Boy, you should have seen him in German talk shows ::).

Drat, that reminds me. What was the name of that movie about the making of the original, silent Nosferatu? John Malkovich played the director and Willem Dafoe played Max Shreck, who played the vampire Count Orlock. The conceit of the film was that Max Shreck really was a vampire. That was a pretty good film.

it was called "Shadow of the Vampire", staring Willem Dafoe as the vampire. He did a masterful job!

Eww, that picture is creepy!
I've never seen that movie before. At least I don't think I have.

I just started reading the first book of the Twilight series. My daughter already has read all existing books, God and his brother are talking about them at the moment. So last week, when I was at Newark airport, waiting for my flight back to Germany, I bought it.
I've only read 70 pages so far. I kinda like it, but I think like Harry Potter, it shows that the target audience are teenagers. I never got the whole Harry Potter thing. To me it was children's books and I gave up after 1.5 books.
But I digress. We're talking vampires here!

He may be creepy, but he sure is cute! I love those blonds! :D
I've seen Nosferatu. It scared the fire out of me. I remember it stayed in my head and messed with me for quite a while. I remember feeling the need to sleep with my crucifix close by so I took it off the wall and layed it on the side table next to the bed. :laugh:

Here's Max Schreck, from the original Nosferatu of 1922.
