World’s Biggest List Of Vampire Movies For Halloween

Tales of vampires have been around for hundreds of years. Stories of the creatures and their current appeal originated over a century ago when Bram Stoker published his novel “Dracula” in 1897. The quintessential vampire tale! Victorians were drawn to Stoker’s vampire tale of sex, death and violence much like viewers of today as seen in Bram Stocker’s Dracula of 1992. The perceived eroticism of vampires continues to appeal to many. Especially around All Hallows Eve.

Romanticized vampire portrayals can be considered dark side dating. Anyone in the market for the newest supernatural coupling has tons of options to choose from at the Sinister Cinema website.

For devoted vampire stans, I have discovered the biggest most awesome list of all sorts of vampire movies on the Net. Take it from me, Sinistercinema.com is worth the binge. Here’s the ‘big list’ with something for everyone; denoted where subtitled or where there’s an R rating. Some with links and some without but they all air on the Sinistercinema.com website.
