"Vampirism is a subject which is suited to the cinema like hardly no other; after all, now and again there are people up there on the screen who have been dead for decades, the undead, and the audience sits in the dark just as the vampire himself sets to work in the dark."The existence of these films is proof of our undying facination with the undead. We want to know all the ins and outs of the movies and the legends. Dispite the fact that most contain exactly the same information, or decidedly inaccurate information, there is among them a rare jewel of truth amidst all the speculation: Vampires are alive and well, and will continue to be, in our culture for a very long time.
