Favorite Vampires

How about Salma Hayek's character in From Dusk 'Til Dawn? Sure the movie was ridiculously silly.... but how do you forget her work in it? If anything, it was pretty memorable...

Meanwhile, Lestat over Louie? Louie was the one with the character arc, the layers, the compassion from the audience. Louie deserves to be at the top of the list, if you ask me.

That's why I'm digging the suggestions... each list has another movie I hadn't thought of, which just gets me thinking some more. Thanks for the list
