Collider ranks vampire films as a genre-spanning list, arguing that vampires remain adaptable figures in horror, romance and comedy. The selection highlights both classic portrayals that shaped Hollywood’s image of Dracula and newer films that relocate or reinvent vampire mythology.

– ‘Sinners’ (2025) is placed first for Ryan Coogler’s original, 1932 Mississippi Delta-set take on vampire lore.
– ‘What We Do in the Shadows’ (2014) is praised as a grounded, Gothic mockumentary about vampire flatmates in Wellington.
– ‘Dracula’ (1931) is recognised as a foundational depiction, led by Bela Lugosi’s influential performance.
