Female Vampires From Movies

Sexy female vampires were all the rage for a while in the film world. During the 1970’s there were a lot of movies made in Europe. These films were sort of like the grindhouse stuff and exploitation cinema that has become popular in recent years.

Films like:

 

Vampyres: About a Couple of Lesbian Vampires.

The Vampire Lovers

The House that Dripped Blood: Staring Ingrid Pitt

 

Then in the 1980’s you had some movies like The Hunger (Catherine Deneuve) and Lifeforce (Mathilda May). The Hunger was set in modern day NYC and Lifeforce was set on a spaceship.

Salma Hayek played a vampire in From Dusk till Dawn. She was dancing on stage as a stripper with a boa constriction when she morphed into a vamp.

There were some big films like Underworld staring Kate Beckinsale. And also HBO came out with True Blood (vamps on that show include Evan Rachel Wood and the redhead Deborah Ann Woll).

And then you have the second vampire film from Neil Jordan (after Interview with the Vampire) Byzantium. This one stars Gemma Arterton and Saoirse Ronan
