about those filthy blood suckers you
love
the callings and anna kendrick as
bella's fake friend jessica
hey you're from arizona right yeah
aren't people from arizona supposed to
be like really tan
now that we're past peak twilight is a
thing i think the movies are definitely
worth revisiting
i mean vampire baseball where do i sign
up
but if i had to bring up one detail that
really took me out of the movie
everyone's way too ripped these guys are
like a thousand years old and they never
skipped a leg day
i think i speak for everyone when i say
it's time for hollywood to give us the
representation we deserve
dumpy dad bod vampires coming in at
number two
we have neil jordan's adaptation of anne
rice's novel the 1994 gothic horror
movie
interview with the vampire available to
rent or buy on prime video
the film follows brad pitt as louis a
vampire from 18th century new orleans
giving a wide ranging interview about
his life story to journalist christian
slater
so what do you do i'm a vampire louis
describes his transformation at the
hands of vampire tom cruise
you'll get used to killing just forget
about that mortal
coil turning 10 year old kirsten dunst
into a vampire for company
that's enough shelley you must stop
before the heart stops
[Music]
i want some more i know meeting vampire
antonio banderas
they had forgotten the first lesson that
we must be powerful
beautiful and without regret
and other experiences that have made
louie a hot immortal sad boy
i thought of all the things i'd done
couldn't undo
and i longed for one second to peace so
sad but so hot
the film features great performances
from kirsten dunst as a creepy
decades-old vampire
trapped in the un-aging body of a
ten-year-old girl
which one of you made me the way i am
what you are
a vampire gone insane that pollutes its
own
bed and tom cruise is the world's
fanciest vampire
lestat giving a really solid unhinged
90s cruise performance
it's your coffin my love enjoy it most
of us never get to know what it feels
like
why do you do this i like to do it i
enjoy it
take your recipes taste pure things kill
them swiftly if you will
but do it for do not doubt you are a
killer louie also
can we talk about how expensive movies
used to be i mean
look at all the stuff they built for old
new orleans just the cravat budget alone
must have been staggering
if interview with the vampire was being
adapted now it would cost nothing and it
would be called
podcasts with the vampire
[Music]
do you still want this or have you
tasted it enough
damn 90s tom cruise taking a big old
bite out of 90s brad pitt
yes please i think brad pitt actually
starts to enjoy it like halfway through
before he gets blue necked brb gonna go
bang out some vampire tom cruise ex brad
pitt au fanfic
come begin at number three check out the
action-packed vampires vs werewolf
series
underworld
underworld stars kate beckinsale as
celine a vampire death dealer in the
middle of a secret centuries-long war
between vampires and werewolves
which this movie calls lichens
when celine begins to fall in love with
a human that's been bitten
scott speedman she decides to go against
her clan to protect him from both the
vampires and werewolves
[Music]
and uncover the truth behind the ancient
vampire werewolf conflict
there are times as a filmmaker when you
have a vision that's so clear
that it's 100 transmitted to the
audience watching this movie
i could tell that the vision was clearly
the matrix
plus vampires
[Applause]
[Music]
are these the slowest werewolves ever
they didn't even make it to the end of
the hallway
she should have just taken the elevator
with that guy if i'm being honest
coming in at number four we have the
show that launched a thousand cw
series i'm talking about buffy the
freaking vampire slayer
buffy the vampire slayer stars sarah
michelle gellar as buffy summers
a 90s high school girl just trying to
fit in
maintaining a normal social life as a
slayer
it's problematic at best this is the 90s
the 1990s in point effect and i can do
both
except she's also this generation's
chosen slayer which means she basically
has superpowers
and has to cut class to fight the
vampires demons and other forces of
darkness that threaten humanity
killed my date the show has a really
great ensemble cast including high
school classmates willow and xander
bad vampires turned good guys angel and
spike and buffy's watcher
giles a british guy that poses as the
school librarian
and tells buffy and her friends what to
do monsters are used more as metaphors
for universal teen problems like
parental pressure
dating living up to others expectations
except in this world the teens can punch
their problems in the face
take that back knee take that mile run
but in all seriousness this show is
basically the sopranos of high school
vampire shows
i strongly recommend it to everybody
you're dead
i may be dead but i'm still pretty
which is more than i can say for you you
were destined to die it was
written what can i say i've lunged
through it
where are your jives now
will you laugh when my hell is on earth
you're that amped about hell
go there
i may be dead but i'm still pretty
which is more than i can say for you the
meanness of a teen girl is actually the
most powerful weapon in the universe
now astute viewers might notice this
quick insert shot in the world of
screenwriting
this is known as chekov's conveniently
placed pointy wood thing
the idea that a conveniently placed
pointy wooden thing in the first act
will have a vampire inevitably fall to
his death on it by the third act
coming in at number five is tom
holland's 1985 film
fright night a horror comedy that begs
the question were boomers the real
vampires all along
fright knight follows teenage horror
lover charlie brewster
who becomes convinced that his next door
neighbor jerry is a vampire
mostly because jerry keeps doing sketchy
stuff right in front of his wide open
windows
when charlie confronts jerry about being
a vampire
jerry threatens to seduce charlie's
girlfriend and his mom
alright i'd never come over without
being invited first
[Laughter]
of course uh now that i've been made
welcome i'll probably drop by quite a
bit
in fact anytime i feel like it
brutal charlie has no choice but to hire
tv horror presenters
vampire expert peter vincent mr vincent
you have to believe me
i'm telling the truth come on you just
said you believe in vampires
i lied and the two set off to try and
kill the vampire before he transforms
everyone charlie knows into a monster
this movie uses vampires as a metaphor
for male anxiety over sexual inadequacy
which is obviously something that i
could never relate to and i've never
heard of
i really love how cartoonishly violent
it is the special effects are all 80s
gross out practical stuff
and they actually used some effects from
ghostbusters that were deemed too
gruesome for that movie
[Music]
and there you have it guys five of the
best vampire movies to stream right now
on amazon prime video

want to see next in the comments

blink
