These bloodsuckers seem to be all the rage again, what with True Blood and Twilight and insane actress-models going on Howard Stern and claiming they are an actual vampire.
So who are our all-time faves?
15. Dracula
(Dracula: Dead and Loving It)
Leslie Nielsen as Mel Brooks’s idea of Dracula? Yes.
14. Eric Northman
Perez Hilton thinks the vampire sheriff portrayal by Alexander Skarsgard is the hottest Swede around, so do we too!
13. Dracula (again)
(Dracula, 1992)
Bram Stoker was the original vampire story-writer — oh, the sexually repressed Gothic novel!) — most recently brought to the silver screen in the incarnation of Gary Oldman in 1992s Dracula.
12. Count Orlok
German expressionist horror film rip off of Dracula! Hooray! The vampire is actually Count Orlok (who was played by Max Shreck, in case you care); ‘Nosferatu’ is what they call vampires. But whatevs.
11. Count Chocula
Chocolaty vampire cereal? What’s not to like?
10. Lestat
Tom Cruise in lacy sleeves is almost as much fun as Tom Cruise jumping on couches. Almost.
9. Stefan Salvatore
What the hell is this? I am old enough to menstruate, so I don’t watch this crap. But I guess some people do, and he’s hot. So there you go.
8. David
Keifer Sutherland is the scariest coastal California vampire of them all. This is how we kicked it in my day, yo.
7. Selene
Go women! Kate Beckinsale looks pretty bad ass in that leather.
6. Count von Count
Puppets are vampires, too. Plus, you got to start the kids young on their bloodsucking mythology these days.
5. Peter Loew
(Vampire’s Kiss)
Nicolas Cage, back when he was weird in a good way, playing a publishing exec who is sure he’s turning into a vamp. Kitsch x 1000.
4. Count Dracula
(Dracula, 1931)
Is there any more quintessential vampire than Bela Lugosi? I mean, seriously.
3. Blade
(Blade)
Oh Wesley Snipes, if vampires (or half-vampires) can be color blind, why can’t we?
2. Mark Kendall
(Once Bitten)
Early Jim Carrey as a teenage virgin being mined for blood by a sexy Lauren Hutton. Well, this one is just really fun.
1. Edward Cullen
(Twilight)
Oh, like there was ever a doubt Robert Pattinson would be number one. Go team Edward!
