About the Book:

HARD TO FIND BOOK, only a very limited number of copies are still available.

Vampire movies are almost as old as film itself. Constantly remade and reinvented for each new generation, the films, like the vampires themselves, adopt many shapes — from the faithful adaptation of Francis Coppola's Dracula to the art movie approach of Werner Herzog's Nosferatu remake via the high-school horror of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Vampire Films traces the vampire film from its beginnings to the present day, acknowledging on its way all the classics of vampire cinema from the original Nosferatu right up to 30 Days of Night and beyond. From saucy French vampires to hopping Chinese ones, from Hammer horrors to Hollywood blockbusters, whatever your favourite bloodsucker you'll find it here.
