Classic vampire movies

Tweet

Hi myLotters! My boyfriend and I, since it was Halloween yesterday, decided to watch some classic horror movies. We had quite a few, but we only watched a couple of them, and plan to continue with the rest tonight. The movies we watched are two classic vampire films: Nosferatu and the 1931 Dracula movie. We enjoyed both movies quite a lot, I personally think it's nice to watch those classic, and so important movies in cinema history. When it comes to Nosferatu, we watched the 'colored', restored version, which uses yellow, blue and pinkish tints depending on the mood/time of the day of each scene, which is quite an interesting concept, but we thought that it would've maybe been better in regular black and white, so to speak. The movie was nice though, Nosferatu himself didn't really scare us but it was sort of creepy how he moved so stiffly. We then watched Dracula, with Bela Lugosi playing the Count. This one we enjoyed too, it's interesting how there aren't any 'action' scenes unlike more modern vampire movies, and yet you can really feel how powerful Dracula is. I think Bela Lugosi was a very nice choice to play Dracula, since he looks really intimidating. Tonight we will probably watch The Horror Of Dracula, with Christopher Lee. So, have you seen any of those movies? If so, what's your opinion of them? Any other vampire movies that you like? (I personally enjoyed Interview With A Vampire too, even though it's waaaay more modern than those movies I mentioned)
