This is an ancient meme, so there are a lot of recent vampires missing (like Abigail, the guy from Sinners, even frickin Morbius.) Not to mention some classics like the Nosferatus, or Catherine Deneuve in The Hunger. I think it's a "who's your favorite?" or "which one are you?" kinda meme but the version I saw didn't have a title. I was gonna re-do the image, but I realized there are a lot of possibilities I'm not familiar with, especially from TV and video games.

Anyway, what vampire is missing from this image? Can be from Movies / TV / Gaming / Other.

I've never seen this episode, but I can totally hear her voice now.

[-] ExhaleSmile@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

It's an older episode but it checks out

S05E05 First aired October 28th 1993 😳

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

Hmmm I must have watched it already then... But TBH I tended not to re-watch those Treehouse of Horror episodes.

That's no vampire. That man has a toothpick in his mouth.

No vampire would think of such a clever disguise!

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

I hindsight he absolutely needed to accidentally stake himself with that toothpick

[-] Flames5123@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

About to say that missing What We Do in the Shadows. Such a great show! I’m still working my way through it!

Speaking of old media… I was hesitant to recommend Carmilla, since I wasn’t sure you’d be looking for books (the most remarkable merit being that it was written before Dracula and even the invention of cinema), but TIL there is indeed a movie:

[-] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 months ago

Consistency in naming the actress vs the character

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah lel there are also a couple spelling mistakes/typos. I ain't hating tho, doing memes takes effort.

[-] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 months ago

Indeed it does. Should it include anyone from What we do in the shadows?

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

By popular demand, it seems so! I def. got to watch that show.

This is the only one that actually looks like a vampire:

Most others look like sexual fantasies with a hint of vampirism

Dracula from Chica Vampiro. The show is bad but I think it would be a completely unique personnality in this panel.

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 1 points 2 months ago

A Colombian telenovela about vampires?!? LOLZ I gotta track it down!!!

[-] pseudo@jlai.lu 3 points 2 months ago

The show is quite bad. Especially since I was watching a french version with poor dubbing and épisode that were clearly rearrange from how the relationship of the secondary character would go back and forth in time. Yet, I'm so upset I couldn't see it until the end!

The old universal films and hammer should be represented: Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 1 points 2 months ago

Hey, that could even be a meme of its own: "Who's the best Dracula?"

[-] Draegur@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

If you're going to include a puppet then you might as well bring in Alucard.

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

I had to look it up, I'm not familiar with anime vampires. Isn't there a Vampire Hunter D as well?

[-] Draegur@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

i was partly curious if people would assume I was talking about Alucard from Hellsing or Alucard from Castlevania X3

"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.
