Interesting question.

I kinda like 'em a little different from picture to picture, I guess. For example, I like Chris Lee's Dracula in "Horror of Dracula," very polite, even friendly when you first meet him, and then nasty as anything when he discovers you're trying to give him the stake. Something very pleasurable about that.

And then there's another favorite, the big bad vampire in Tsui Hark's "Vampire Hunters," which is totally devoid of humanity, it's more like a floating blood magnet from hell that can suck your veins dry without even touching you. That version was cool because the vampire felt very dangerous--the kind of thing that if you heard it was anywhere NEAR the area you were in, you would just drop whatever you were doing and get very, very far away. Or farther if possible.
