What's your favorite Vampire film?

This is the closest you'll get as of right now. Hell of a faithful adaptation, but a direct result of that is it's very dry.
Also, I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but The Transfiguration is a great damn vampire movie.
A little off the beaten path, but I'll always have a soft spot for this one:
I see you
Herzog's Nosferatu. It's a stunning visual treat, drenching in atmosphere, that stands the test of time — as does Kinski's Dracula, which is still the most sinister, unsettling vampire I've seen depicted on film. Death, pestilence, and dread follow him like a shadow. He's give a gives off a somber & icey sort of evil that makes most movie vampires look like silly little clowns in comparison. Brilliant film.
A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night.
Edit: didn't notice the multiple pages, beaten like cake mix.
Vamp was the first vampire film I ever saw, and I still love it to this day. Still haven't seen a vampire more terrifying than Grace Jones was in this.
A classic that too many people don't know about.
Oooh, Nadja! Yes.
Other than that, Queen of the Damned, Near Dark, Shadow of the Vampire.
You're welcome 😊 (Just to add, I feel Iranian and Korean films don't get much deserved credit)
Very happy to see at least one mentioning this movie. I enjoyed it very much.
Dracula 2000, starring a then-unknown Gerard Butler.
I really liked the origin of Dracula in this one. Feels like it makes more "sense".
And very happy to see two people mention Dracula: Dead and Loving it.
Those to are among my favorites. All the other good ones have already been said.
Most good ones already mentioned except Dracula Untold. loved the more human view of Dracula as opposed to a generic villain with little screen time. hugely underrated. story is a mesh of the vampire folklore and history. great ending too along with action. has a scene with a giant hand made of bats smashing an army.
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. Also one of the best anime movies of all time.
The nominations in the first page also made me realize how terrible most vampire films are, hahah.

The Addiction (Abel Ferrera)
That's the one. Well, that and Vampire's Kiss.
I've never actually seen Blade 2, despite being a Del Toro fanVampire is one of my least favorite horror trope, so I prefer something that doesn't take itself seriously.
Thus I nominate, Blade II.
This gif has sold me on watching it today
This one by far. I don't mind most vampire films, but this one is really top grade stuff. Amazingly made film in every respect, and I could keep watching it forever if it was a TV series.
I fucking love this movie, watch it every year around Halloween at least a few times.
It really feels like a modern Dracula done right, but funny and still gets creepy in a few places.
Harker, definitely, and even Ryder slides into mediocrity at various points. But the cinematography, the effects, the performances of Oldman and Hopkins, and the score put the movie over the top. Especially the score, I love the shit out of it.
Near Dark.
The film is insane and has a really great supporting cast and great final act (eruption of violence). Still my favourite Kathryn Bigelow movie.

Really loved Underworld in 2003 and watched the movie 3,4 times in those days when I was 16 years old. But don't know if I'll like it these days or not.
Other than that, don't remember a favorite vampire movie and the only one that came to my mind was Nosferatu.
