I am ashamed to say that I tried to make a list of my Top 25 vampire films but there weren't very many that I have seen. Out of the ones I have seen, I would definitely put Martin in my list of favorites. I need to see more in the future, though.
I've been waiting for you, Ben. -

weirdly crappy list. no Herzog? no Salem's Lot? no Martin? Hell, only one Hammer film listed and no Adamson's Dracula Vs Frankenstein?????
the list was clearly written by some younger hack hipster that doesn't "like" or "get" "old films". Lost Boys as No. 1??? wtf? -

Better question is where is Dreyer's Vampyr or Herzog's Nosferatu the Vampyre? Bela Lugosi version looks like an Ed Wood film next to Dreyer and Herzog's versions.
Who in their right mind enjoys Dracula (1931) more than Vampyr (1932)? I even prefer that god-awful Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie over Dracula (1931).
