Shadow of the Vampire (2000)

I watched this back when it first came out. It was not due to the source material, but rather the fact that the movie rental business was still around, and that was the only form of entertainment at the time. I hadn’t even heard of Nosferatu at the time and my desire to see cult…


Wolvesbayne (2009)

Often it’s very easy to see what movie a clone is copied from. Wolvesbayne features a clan of werewolves fighting evil vampires, with a heroic brunette.

However after viewing this, it was far from being exploitative in many senses. William Marshall as Blacula plays his role…
