Vampire movies are as old as cinema itself. Nosferatu, released in 1922, is considered a landmark movie for reasons that go far beyond its chilling title character, but vampires were entering the film landscape as early as 1913’s The Vampire. And beginning with Universal’s precedent-stamping Dracula in 1931, Bram Stoker’s famous bloodsucker has been portrayed on film over 170 times, more than any other character outside of Sherlock Holmes.
Thus, in an ironic twist, vampire films are one of the major arteries of Hollywood storytelling. Over a century of movies have put vampires in almost every scenario imaginable. Why? Our appetite for the undead is seemingly insatiable. Like vampires themselves, we can’t help ourselves, it’s part of our nature.
After a while, you become numb to the standard vampire fare: You need something more exotic, something battier. You need that guano. Lucky for you, with hundreds of movies and shows, Sling Free has that crazy vampire content you crave. Here’s a taste; drink up!
