Peter Facinelli, who plays Dr. Carlisle Cullen in The Twilight Saga has been named the “Worst Vampire” by Rolling Stone film critic, Peter Travers. Ouch!
“Facinelli is a solid actor, but playing Carlisle Cullen, the white-haired head of the fang-challenged Cullen vampire family, he looks about as terrifying as Project Runway winner Austin Scarlett, whom Carlisle closely resembles,” Peter Travers wrote.
Peter Facinelli however, has remained good humored about the title, tweeting, “Yes! I finally came in Number 1 in something!” yesterday.
“Thank you Mr. Travers,” Facinelli continued. “As Carlisle is a compassionate humanitarian, and anti-vampire in nature, being the worst vampire was quite the compliment. Although, you had me at ‘solid actor.’ I did find the comparison to Austin Scarlett utterly ridiculous though… he has way better cheek bones.”
So who is the ‘best’ on screen vamp according to the Rolling Stone critic? Bela Lugosi as Count Dracula. Lugosi played the role of the ultimate vampire over 70 years ago, first on Broadway in 1927, and then starring in the film produced by Universal in 1930.
