I am really excited about the Sunday viewing, I have been wanting to see Vampyr for a long while, I actually purchased it a couple of months ago, but did not watch it. From what I have heard, it is an absolute classic and a must-see
As for Interview with the Vampire, I mean I like it, but there are many other vampire films that are so much better. I know that you want to visit it because you were obsessed with it, but maybe you could replace it with one that you have not seen. I mean it's up to you, it's just a suggestion. I do think it is a solid film and I love that alot of the setting is in New Orleans because I love that city (went there for vacation this past July).
As for Only Lovers Left Alive, I have no real opinion of it. The cover makes me think it is not good, but covers can sometimes be misleading (though some of the people here seem to think it is quite dreadful). I will watch it though, if it is kept. Maybe I will like it. You have mentioned that you have heard many good things about it. Strangely, I have heard absolutely nothing about it until now, good or bad.
If you do decide in favor of a replacement or replacements, I would like to second what some of the posters above have said. You should consider adding a Hammer film, Horror of Dracula is really highly reviewed one, which I know you mentioned before wanting to see. That would be a good selection. I know you seen it a long time before, but the original Nosferatu would be another good selection (which I know you originally had). The remake to Nosferatu (1979) would also be an excellent selection. I know you have never seen it and it is quite magnificent, in my opinion. I would also recommend the original Dracula, though I know that is another one you have already seen, though I am sure it has been a while.
Roshiq made some excellent suggestions as well, Martin would probably be really hard to get though.
