i was wrong (texas chainsaw massacre might have been the first one?)

vampyros lesbos > coppola's dracula
Agree with all of these but replace Right One with Ferrara’s The Addiction, honorable mention for Portabell’s Cuadecuc Vampir
Vampyr (Dreyer, 1932)
Bram Stoker’s Dracula (Coppola, 1992)
Martin (Romero, 1977)
Nosferatu (Murnau, 1922)
Let the Right One In (Alfredson, 2008)

Top five vampire movies

For fun

The game is simple. I post a clip from a cinephile-friendly film. You re-post with the correct guess, you win.
