He also used to play Cesar Faison on General Hospital. He's great at playing sophisticated Eurotrash villains.

He's a good vampire, too., Really knows how to drool.

I tend to get a little more fixated on the cute-as-a-button Denice Duff in those films, myself :cool:

One of the great motivations for this unstoppable vampire passion has always been the element of the long lost love. Dracula had his Mina, and in Vampire Resurrection, Jonathon, the movie’s resident coffin dweller, has his Caroline…or Victoria, depending on which incarnation of the lady you’re talking about.

Vampire Resurrection is frustrating in that it has a lot going for it, but shoots itself in the foot. The best example of this, besides the aforementioned original concept which is surrounded by clichés, is the cinematography by Gray Milton and Paul Deng. Besides being a well-lit movie in general despite some cheesy dream sequences, Resurrection features some interesting compositions as well, which makes the frequent appearances of the boom mic feel like a stake through the heart of the movie. For a picture that has some impressive production values, such as period costumes, evocative locations and a darn good recreation of a car crash, something as simple as framing a shot sans microphone should not be an issue. And it wasn’t just a one time slip-up. A kitchen scene that features some good acting by Duff and Marilyn O’Conner, playing the mystical Aunt Zarelda, is rendered useless by the participation of the mic, practically a character unto itself in the scene. On the bright side, the sound in the picture is pretty good.
The movie was directed by its star, Denice Duff, working from a script by Ron Ford and Jose Prendes. There is obviously a lot of affection for the genre on display here and the concept, while not exactly new, is redeemed by the sweetness of the characters. Duff lends an independent dignity to her character and while Horan is saddled with some cringe-inducing dialogue as Jonathon, it’s pretty tough not to end up liking the guy in the end.
There are too many flaws with this production to recommend it wholeheartedly. The clichés are too great, right down to the gratuitous nudity. However, the movie undeniably put a smile on my face, and I hope that in the future Duff and company can widen that smile with a movie that doesn’t sell its characters short of an original plot.

And if the movie doesn't work for you honey she is a Soap Star now....

I really liked the Subspecies series and thought Anders Hove was good as Radu.

Vampire Journals, a Subspecies spin-off, is also a great vampire flick.

I found Vampire Ressurection to be boring. Not terrible but nothing really happens in the movie.

[katharine]

so do you have any other vampire movies to suggest?

And can I ask what you thought of Razor Blade Smile?
I really liked that one...Thanks for responding...I am always interested in something new...

[Ratlehed]

Razor Blade Smile had a good concept (and title) but it wasnt what it could hvae been. I thought they could've had alot more action in it. I also didnt like the ending. It's been years since I've seen it though.

Any Dracula film with Christopher Lee is worth checking out. Some are really good and some are enjoyable on a cheesy level.

Dracula with Bela Lugosi and its sequel Dracula's Daughter are both good if you are looking for older stuff. As are Mark of the Vampire and Return of the Vampire both with Lugosi.

Fright Night and The Lost Boys are both good films from the 80's. They have a touch of horror and humour.

If you can find Vampire Circus its really cool and really different.

Alot of people sing high praise for Near Dark. I couldn't get into it though. Its kind of like Forsaken but alot better. But still not that good.

Blood & Donuts is good but hard to come by. Its really low budget but its kind of different in a good way.

The Vampire Lovers with Ingrid Pitt is also well worth checking out. Good story and sets.

Nosferatu. The original vampire movie. A must see.

Hope this list helps a little. I have not seen anything with the same look as Subspecies with the exception of The Vampire Journals.
