The good or the bad guy? -The male vampire in film- The image of the vampire is one that is known all over the world. If one would ask a random person on the street what he or she knows about vampires, he or she would probably mention one of the following typical characteristics of vampires: they drink blood, they die when they face sunlight, the have sharp canines, they hate garlic and crucifixes, they sleep in coffins, they can transform into bats, they have a pale skin colour and they usually wear a black cape. On top of this, they will probably also say that the vampire is usually depicted as being a male person. The reason why one has exactly this image of the vampire in one’s mind can be traced back to Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula.

Throughout the development of horror cinema – the figure of the ‘vampire’ has changed and progressed dramatically. When thinking of the ‘classic’ figure of the ‘vampire’ – one of the first that comes to the minds of most is none other than Hammers Dracula (Horror of Dracula; 1958). The stereotypical judgments or thoughts towards the ‘classic’ vampire figure – in this case, Dracula – is most notably known to be from Transylvania. He seduces and lures his victims in order to suck blood for survival and also finding pleasure in the process of his kill. Ultimately, Dracula is portrayed as evil, a threat to society and a menace.
Yes, I can relate but it was a fiction movie about vampires and Abraham Lincoln as a vampire sleigher. ( A movie about an alternate life they claimed he lived.) I am not sure if that counts, but if in some strange case it did then no, it wouldn't cast doubt on Diamond's claim because the vampire situation was just one time, Diamond proclaimed a prevalent amount of times when a more materially advanced society defeated a less materially advanced society.

One popular movie was Nosferatu, a film about a vampire. This film established many of the rules and basics for horror films today. Although
The monster also looks more scary and original in this film (bolts in his neck) then in the other version of Frankenstein. Besides the creator and the creation of the monster the last difference between the films was Maria died by drowning in a lake by being thrown by Frankenstein. Besides the significant and minor differences between the two films there were similarities. One similarity is in the creation of Frankenstein the parts were made up of dead remains, weather stolen or not. Another similarity that was most noticeable to me was in both films Elizabeth either the wife of Victor or Henry was concerned about her husband.
Unfortunately due to the extreme age of Báthory's legend, and her entanglement in super natural lore, it is difficult to distinguish fact from fiction in many accounts of her escapades. She has often been claimed to be a vampire, to have bathed in the blood of her victims, and has even been fictionalized as a mate of Count Dracula despite the fact that Vlad the Impaler died about 100 years before her birth. However; this report will attempt to focus on the most reliable information available about the "Blood Countess". Erzsébet was a difficult child, and life was not easy for her despite being a member of the privileged class. She suffered from fits, uncontrolled rages, and the possibility of epilepsy which may have indicated deeper brain disorders.
Examine the representation of vampires and sexuality in cinema or television. Vampires have long been depicted in films as something to be feared and to avoid at all costs. Cardace (2009), for example, said that before Twilight, vampires were heart stoppers, not heartthrobs. Vampires have also been connected with fears of foreign people, since the eastern European spectre of the count. It has only been in recent years with film releases such as those in the Twilight series, originally books by author Stephanie Meyer, that these previous images are being given a different new angle.
The pain that Bella feels when Edward abandons her is extremely well written and is really what this story is about. Most of the things that happen to Bella in New Moon are as a result of the overwhelming loss that she is trying to bear. Her friendship with Jacob has a doomed quality to it not only because he obviously loves her while she is in love with Edward but because he is a werewolf and he naturally hates all vampires. Things are only getting more dangerous for Bella, but she doesn't care. Victoria, an evil vampire, then comes back to Forks avenging her mate James.
However, since it is a musical, it has to consist of other genres, which in this case are horror, drama, and dark comedy. Every horror movie has a big, bad killer in it which is also often the villain in the movie. In Sweeney Todd: TDBOFS the killer is the main character; Benjamin Barker, who in this case is not the villain in the movie. The fact that the killer is not the villain shows how dark humour is used in this work of Tim Burton. Another important thing in horror movies is that the villain has to die at the end of the movie, and even though a lot of people die, the end has to somehow be more or less a happy ending.
