Just want to reiterate my backing of Mark of the Vampire for an honourable mention.... Carol Borland's performance alone makes this a worthy inclusion, basically sets the template for seductive female vampires of the future. I know the ending gets a ton of criticism, but when put in context with the rest of the film, we can essentially look at this movie as a great early example of genre parody.
It really is a perfect movie for the honourable mentions section, has its flaws, but brings enough individuality to the table that it would be sad to see it over looked...
