John Carpenter's Vampires (1998) - Official Trailer (HD)

[@justinhuston6855]

Most underrated vampire movie of all time

[@gamecode7121]

I watched this a few months back and I must say this is one of the best movies. James wood nailed the acting in this one.

[@bifftannen1598]

Thomas Ian Griffith is definitely the biggest & most imposing vampire I've seen in a movie. He was perfectly cast for this

[@RedRider763]

He was great but in my opinion Chris serandon in fright night is untouched

[@bifftannen1598]

@@RedRider763 - I agree. Overall Sarandon was definitely the best, but Griffith was much bigger which makes him a bit more imposing

[@RedRider763]

[@ikecarr5989]

Wonder how he researched this role ?

[@fulciknight880]

Late 60's, 70s,80s, early 90s it will never be the same

[@arthas640]

That's because in the 2000s CGI became affordable for most movie studios and kept getting cheaper to the point that you can spend a week with a group of film student actors and then get some nerd with a laptop to create the whole movie with Adobe. It's gotten to the point that it's easier for them to use CGI blood instead of the blood squibs and everything ends up looking fake. The 90s was also when we started getting more dark and edgy everything, and everyone got a little more sarcastic so that only increases the dissonance. I cant remember if it was Christopher Lee in Star Wars or if it was Ian McKellan in The Hobbit, but one of those 2 supposedly broke down crying on set because of all the green screen everything to the point that he felt more like a prop then an actor.

Facts

[@Darek_B52]

If I may suggest a few that I really like Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust (technically the second but it's so far disconnected from the first that you don't need to see the first) Near Dark from 1987 also Byzantium but I wasn't a huge fan in the sense that it was like the film here...however I will say it's a decent flick. It has a pretty cool waterfall scene where the water turns to blood and it's all practical effects.

The original Salem’s Lot is pretty great!

[@konstantinoskaragiannis1596]

"Vampires"(1998) is a good enough cult horror movie!

[@onahssi]

I remember I was 6years old that time when I'm watching this on my cousin's house. I was so scared and it keep on my mind until I became adult. I don't know the title but I still remember some movie scenes. Now I'm already 28 years old, thanks to KZbin, after typing list of iconic vampires movie of all time, I found this movie again 😁

[@Luigui15luigi]

Exactly The same happens to me, I'm from Peru

[@renatuten2101]

Same!!! My whole childhood was traumatized by this movie.

[@guilhermehenrique9979]

The same here.. hahahaha

[@hectorcayetano7341]

Same!! i watched this when I was 8 and it scarred me. I just recently remembered this out of nowhere and so I went to search it up. I found it by searching “vampire movies” and looking through each of them to see if I remembered anything. Ultimately the reason I figured this out was because of that party scene where the master vampire comes back. And when he cuts the dude by the door in half. That was the scene that scared me so long ago

[@ThePolarBear85]

I just search this movie because I like the vampires burn under the heat of the sun. hehehe

This trailer is so 90s

[@ManoSaarinenCarmanen81]

Yeah and they even made trailers so much better back in the day! Not the best work from John Carpenter but good movie overall! NOTHING beats The Thing (1982), my favourite movie of all time

[@rufussamsquanch_6547]

John Carpenter's Vampires is a great movie and yeah it was a 90s trailer. Fortunately...the 80s and 90s were the best. Trailers these days suck a greyhound's musty ass.

[@DrAverage444]

One of my favorite movies as a kid

[@Billy_Lenz]

Blade meets From Dusk Till Dawn. This is one of those R rated movies that almost feels like it was aimed towards young teens.

[@bratosin1]

Vampires and from dusk till dawn , the best 2 vampires movies ever made

[@shanelee4401]

Lost boys.....?

[@dgmobbdeep]

Blade one too.

[@bdo7765]

Dusk Till Dawn is way too silly, IMHO. Try "Near Dark," a sort of unusual late-80s piece which does away with all the "sexy" vampire trappings and magic powers, giving it a greater sense of day-to-day realism. If you're an Aliens fan, you'll also enjoy seeing three of the main cast from that movie: Bill Paxton, Lance Henriksen, and Jeanette Goldstein (Vasquez).

[@lakvindersingh4632]

[@masonpines6349]

This looks like a better Lost Boys sequel than the actual Lost Boys sequels... Though Edgar's final kill in 3 was literally one of the coolest things ever even if the movie was weak.

This is up there with Bella’s original Dracula, from dusk till dawn. Interview and the 90s one with Tom waits. Best of all time vampire movies.

[@jasonarmo3509]

[@arthas640]

"The Master" looks like they originally wanted him to be played by Marilyn Manson but couldnt get him, so they took someone who looked vaguely similar and dressed him up in their best Marilyn Manson costume.

[@mattr.1887]

They used Thomas Ian Griffith. Great actor. He played Terry Silver in Karate Kid III.

[@Benjamin-yb9zp]

[@markldesign1]

Just notices James Wood’s infamous signature denim jean is “Wrangler” or “Gloria Vanderbilt’s”? 😂

[@sigspearthumb3249]

We were all deprived of a great talent when Hollywood blacklisted James Woods for his WrongThink. All that forced diversity of things that shouldn't matter, like race, gender and sexuality, but absolutely no diversity of thought - the most important kind of diversity.

[@Shalanaya]

People's own argument for what DEI or WOKE is predicted on is obscured by their bigotry, which is why DEI is deemed necessary, that is, if there was no such thing as bigotry or prejudice there would be no need for DEI. The bigotry is to infer that those who benefit from DEI don't strive for excellence. There can only be inlcusion of differences that include differnces.

[@horror_fam0847]

I remember watching this with my mom and dad at the theater I thought one of the coolest Vampire movies since Lost Boys and just love that Marlyin Manson beautiful people remix

[@user-dr2yz8um3d]

25 years old! I remember watching it on tv on the Sci-Fi Channel way back I was rather intrigued considering it was by one of the great horror directors John Carpenter who did 'Halloween' (1978) and 'The Thing' (1982) Never would've expected him to take a supernatural approach to the undead creatures of the night It's also based on the book by John Steakley A cool cast from James Woods to Daniel Baldwin to Thomas Ian Griffith The film is less than perfect and the treatment of women hasn't aged so well but it gets by with Woods' unique charm, some fun action set pieces, and great gore Yeah he's despicable throughout but does what he can to get the job done with an ultra macho cowboy visage he becomes somewhat of a satire Valek makes for a pretty cool villain being the toughest foe Jack has ever encountered The church urges him to stand down since he's outmatched Carpenter treats this as more of a B-Western than a straight up horror film, there's more emphasis on the thrill of the hunt He also does the score for this one like many in the past The setting of the desert is cleverly utilized being that vampires don't have many dark places to hide in the daylight unless if its a cave miles away or sleeping under the dirt The screenplay by Don Jakoby makes the movie stand out being one of the early films to have a full organization to hunt down supernatural creatures It also has the advantage creating a whole mythology for vampires and their origins tying to the Holy Church 'Blade' having come out only a few months before is far superior in many respects and ultimately that made this movie fall behind in terms of box office success But that doesn't mean Carpenter's film shouldn't be overlooked since it is still so entertaining and cool to watch He bends the genre itself and this managed to find a bigger success on home video

[@davidsmith2842]

This is a pretty good movie, it’s more of an action film than a horror movie but it’s labeled as horror because it has vampires in the movie. This movie stars James Woods I’m pretty sure this is the only movie I’ve seen him in so far I could be wrong though. The acting is great in this movie James Woods who plays Jack Crow The hero and Vampire slayer is fantastic and so is Thomas Ian Griffith who plays Jan Valek the master vampire the main villain. Their take on vampires is pretty cool I’m not going to give a lot away but it’s cool. John Carpenter is an awesome director. The story is great the movie is about a Vampire hunter James Woods who hunts down vampires and is looking for the original vampire Thomas Ian Griffith and put a stop to his terror and creating more vampires but Valek is trying to find this cross so he can do a ritual so he can walk in the day and it’s up to Jack to stop him he is accompanied by Anthony Montoya(Daniel Baldwin) his friend, Katrina (Sheryl Lee)a woman bitten by Valek who has a psychic link to him and Jack uses her to find Valek and Father Adam Guiteau who was sent by the church Jack works for to help Jack out. So can Jack stop Valek before it’s too late well you’ll have to watch this movie to find out? The acting, story, directing and special effects are awesome. If you have not seen this movie then I recommend you do rating 5/5
