Vampires have been sinking their fangs into human necks since the Silent Era. The popularity of the mythical creatures can be credited to Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel Dracula<\/em>, which has been adapted more than 170 times. The 1872 novel, Carmilla,<\/em> by Sheridan Le Fanu, also contributed heavily by being adapted more than 100 times.<\/p>\n

Though vampires are primarily known for their craving for blood, early cinematic vampires, as seen in the 1913 movie The Vampire<\/em>, were femme fatale “vamps” rather than undead fiends. Today, vampires can be clearly defined.<\/p>\n

Ordinarily, vampire movies are associated with horror<\/strong>, but from time to time, the creatures tend to appear in drama, action, science fiction, comedy, romance, and fantasy stories. In the 2020s, movie directors are still fascinated with vampires, as we have recently seen gems like Nosferatu <\/em>and Abigail. <\/em>However, let\u2019s take a trip back to the 1990s<\/strong> when equally great vampire movies were released, stretching across several genres.<\/p>\n

Handling grief and heartbreak at the same time isn\u2019t easy. So New Yorker Sam (Larry Fessenden) \u2014 who has just lost his father and broken up with his girlfriend \u2014 is glad when he meets Anna (Meredith Snaider), a seductive woman who seems willing to love him and nurse him back to a proper mental state. However, dozens of minutes into Habit<\/em><\/strong>, he suspects she might be a vampire<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Bad Company <\/h3>\n

Has a budget movie ever looked so good? The film was nominated for Best Cinematography and Best Director<\/strong> at the Independent Spirit Awards. Larry Fessenden did a one-man show here, directing, writing, and starring in Habit<\/em>, without messing up a single thing. A masterclass in multitasking!<\/p>\n

Meredith Snaider is also brilliant. Even though she seems human and empathetic at times, she\u2019s still a scary siren, especially when threatened.<\/p>\n

    Arranged marriages suck (total pun intended). Just ask Karmina<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s 140-year-old titular character, who flees from her home in Transylvania to go live with her aunt in Quebec so that she won\u2019t exchange vows with the annoying Vlad (Yves Pelletier). <\/strong>Life is better for her in North America, since vampires like her can access a magic potion that enables them to be more human.<\/strong> However, Karmina\u2019s peace doesn\u2019t last long as Vlad and her parents soon show up to bring her back home.<\/p>\n

    Fighting Traditions <\/h3>\n

    Breathtaking visuals and tense family conflicts drive Gabriel Pelletier\u2019s Genie Award-nominated tale of love and honor among the blood-sucking community. Filmed on location in Quebec, the film unravels like a Shakespearean drama, and the director draws smooth, unhurried work from his cast. He also sprinkled plenty of humor into the script, while underscoring a familiar dichotomy between wants and needs, nature and choice. Check out Karmina<\/em>, if you yearn to dive into vampire romance.<\/p>\n

    The most iconic of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino\u2019s collaborations, From Dusk Till Dawn<\/strong> <\/em>sees two brothers, Seth Gecko (George Clooney) and Richard (Quentin Tarantino) rob a bank before fleeing to the Mexican border. They make a stop at a bar, only to learn that it\u2019s the hangout joint for a gang of vampires.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Bloody, but Aesthetically Pleasing <\/h3>\n

    From Dusk Till Dawn<\/em> was rubbished by critics when it came out, but it\u2019s now considered a classic. Even today, its prescient message about karma packs a punch and the gore was ahead of its time. Robert Rodriguez shot much of the mayhem on location in Mexico, hence delivering some realism that was rare for vampire movies at the time. The point-of-view camera shots are also breathtaking. In all, this stands as a towering cinematic achievement of the \u201890s.<\/p>\n

    There are no drugs in The Addiction<\/strong>. <\/em>The film concerns Kathleen Conklin (Lili Taylor), a philosophy graduate student who gets attacked by a vampire while she is walking in the streets. As she starts experiencing cravings, she tries hard to control herself,<\/strong> stuffing her mind with intellectual arguments about why she should and shouldn\u2019t attack other people.<\/p>\n

    Major Dilemma <\/h3>\n

    Abel Ferarray’s widely acknowledged horror masterpiece is a work of insightful beauty. Beyond its delicate presentation of a common story, The Addiction<\/em> is one of the most visually stunning horror movies ever made. Lili Taylor is superb, conveying vulnerabilities and emotions that bite you and feel achingly real. And we, as the viewers, stand right beside her in her shifting alternating ecstasy and torment.<\/p>\n

    Francis Ford Coppola\u2019s experimentation hasn\u2019t always yielded fruit, but Bram Stoker’s Dracula<\/em><\/strong> was, a rip-roaring bloody good time, from opening to conclusion. In the star-studded film, the eponymous vampire (Gary Oldman) falls in love with the fianc\u00e9 of his lawyer, Jonathan Harker (Keanu Reeves). He locks the man up and goes after the unlucky woman, and when word reaches vampirism expert, Professor Abraham Van Helsing (Anthony Hopkins), he decides to act.<\/p>\n

    Biting for Love <\/h3>\n

    The legendary Coppola directed the film with total conviction. He was adamant about not using CGI, instead relying on antiquated techniques from Old Hollywood. <\/strong>Because of this, we get a truly dark and horrific picture. On top of that, Coppola serves us a rapid-fire repartee, helping us make sense of some of the complex proceedings unfolding. <\/p>\n

      Nadja<\/em><\/strong> walks the same dark footpaths as Coppola\u2019s masterpiece. Here, Dracula\u2019s daughter, Nadja (Elina Lowensohn), plots vengeance against her father’s murderer, Dr. Van Helsing (Peter Fonda)<\/strong>. Part of her plan involves seducing Van Helsing’s daughter, Lucy (Galaxy Craze), but the vampire killer has clever strategies of his own.<\/p>\n

      Life after Dracula <\/h3>\n

      Director Michael Almereyda has always known how to churn out these utterly charming arthouse confections. Painting subtle horrific pictures the way he did seems like a lost art nowadays, but we\u2019ll forever cherish what he did. Here, he draws out delightful performances from his co-stars, and the chemistry between all the cast members is alluringly potent.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Will he get it?<\/p>\n

        Another Unmissable Gem From del Toro <\/h3>\n

        Guillermo del Torro really scored with Cronos<\/em>, a fizzy, wildly entertaining Mexican indie film he wrote himself. Federico Luppi has a star-making turn here, and whenever he is in the room with sultry co-star Margarita Isabel, the sparks fly.<\/strong> Claudio Brook also makes a dandy villain playing Dieter de la Guardia, the rich, dying businessman, who is eager to get his hands on the 460-year-old artifact.<\/p>\n

        Interview with the Vampire<\/em><\/strong> begins with Louis de Pointe du Lac (Brad Pitt), a 200-year-old vampire, telling his life story to a biographer. Back in 1791, he was a wealthy plantation owner, grieving the loss of his wife and child. Then the charming vampire Lestat de Lioncourt (Tom Cruise) approached him, offering him immortality. <\/strong>He agreed, but the consequences became too much to bear.<\/p>\n

        Looking Back at When It All Went Wrong <\/h3>\n

        The gothic horror film will please fans of the Anne Rice novel it\u2019s based on. It\u2019ll also please those who love the look and sound of a movie more than the plot. Interview with the Vampire<\/em> was nominated for Best Art Direction and Best Original Score at the Oscars,<\/strong> and even though these two departments make up the movie\u2019s spine, Pitt and Cruise do well too. Both of them haven\u2019t touched this kind of project before, but we\u2019d love them to.<\/p>\n

        Based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, Blade<\/strong><\/em> concerns Blade (Wesley Snipes), a half-vampire<\/strong> who has dedicated his life to hunting others of his kind. His mom was bitten by a vampire while pregnant with him, so he inherited all the special abilities of vampires (superhuman strength, speed, and healing) and, luckily, avoided weaknesses, like sensitivity to light.<\/p>\n
