"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.

Anyone who thinks Van Helsing was bad clearly hasn't seen GOTHIC VAMPIRES FROM HELL... just from the title you can tell that they were going for a B movie feel, and managed to hit several levels below that

  • fake-looking fangs, fake-looking blood effects
  • randomly inserted computer-generated animations
  • bad acting, bad writing
  • club scenes of people dancing with cheap video distortion effects overlayed
  • occasional BDSM scenes interweaved ... to create a mood I guess?
  • It all looks like it was filmed in a goth club somewhere with their friends as actors.

Surprisingly, it has a solid soundtrack made up of second-generation gothic industrial / deathrock music. I think Cleopatra Records had something to do with this movie. Anyway, this is a great movie to play in the background if you like dark vampiric stuff happening in the periphery and you're into "dark" music.

I caught it on Tubi (uBlock Origin adblocker on Firefox seems to work here):
