Description
For a spooky treat, I wanted to track the progression of how vampires have evolved in films from the terrifyingly ratlike Nosferatu to the near-superhero Dracula of this year's Dracula Untold. Vampires have often bounced between comedy and horror, and I tried to represent as many different iterations of this as possible. How did I do? Which movie vampires would you have included?Related content

I love all your choices. From Dusk til Dawn is one of my dad's favourite films.

my favorite Draculas are Hamilton Camp from Scooby and the Reluctant Werewolf, Grandpa from the Munsters,Β and Judd Hirsch in the Halloween that Almost Wasn't.

I love vampires. They're such fascinatingly terrible! (Except when they're not-- you know who you are!)

Awesome....It's sad though that Twilight will forever be a part of the vampire timelineΒ Β

1992: Lucy bride? Why didn't you use the awesome Gary Oldman? And... no Christopher Lee? I like your other work, but this is lacking IMO.

Sorry to disapoint. I did an entire Gary Oldman Evolution with all his dracula forms previously and didn't want to seem redundant. Also, Christopher Lee was a close call, but I tried to show a little more ethnic diversity with Blacula since most of the original counts were white dudes. Anyway, that's just my rationale.

Oh, I missed the Oldman piece, my bad.Β

Who are the 92, the 96 and the little one dripping blood?

Bram Stoker's Dracula, From Dusk Til Dawn, and Let the right one in.

What about Bram Stroker's Dracula? Or Booberella(sp?)

I actually laughed when I got to the last one. I havenβt seen Dracula Untold, but Nosferatu was creepy and I can hardly think of a bigger contrast.

You forgot Interview With the Vampire! But I'm glad you put The Lost Boys on there!

what about Dracula from Van Helsing?

Considered him, but ultimately didn't think he was that memorable.

he had the most Montrous "vampire" form jaws unhinged and giant bat like creature, however he did add little other than showing how awful edward was. You are brilliant regardless

You don't have 1995, Vampire in Brooklyn. Β If you haven't seen it, watch it.

I haven't seen that one...but i've heard it's awful

The best line comes from Drac in Hotel Transylvania, after seeing a segment of TwilightΒ "I can not believe this is what we have been reduced to."

1922 is the best vampire! 1996 is a close 2nd...

I'm just glad we have gotten back on track since 2008... *shivers*

This is pretty much awesome. Β Is the 2008 one "Let Me In"?? Β I haven't seen that one, but I've seen the Swedish original. Β Nice work!

How about the original "Fright Night" movie? (Great artwork by the way) You do great evolution themed artwork on other subjects too!
