On - I actually thought you meant
The Breed. It's been a while since I've seen that one but I recall finding it atmospherically interesting.

I was looking forward to Interview. Only saw it once, and maybe only part of it (wasn't my video).
With Bram Stoker... I really like all the Neo in the Drac' castle scenes. Coppola does a masterful job with those -- such amazing lighting, colors, shots and effects. I got really excited about the film there.
It's like two different films.
Everything else in the film really misses for me. I really don't like anything in England, nor do I like the entire ending. Drac is so different in England, & the two characterizations just don't link up at all for me. I even rather disliked all the interactions between Rider, her redheaded friend and Drac. I know he's the undead, but there was no life there for me. Besides the castle scenes, the story & heart just really seems to get lost.
The Brood
Interview with a Vampire
Martin
Salem's Lot
If you haven't seen this, I highly recommend:
Daybreakers - modern day, Ethan Hawke, good quality, bit sci-fi

Yeah, I recall Neo DEFINITELY being the weakest part of Dracula (then again, I think I was too busy drooling over Gary Oldman - true story)... It'll be interesting to see it again. I remember it definitely having different tones from humorous to overdramatic - Either way, should be fun!
I have Interview on my queue, so hopefully I can check it out either Wednesday or next weekend (I also want to get Magic to participate with Villain).
I haven't seen Martin but I've been meaning to for a LONG time... And as for Salem's Lot I really loved the book - I'd actually like to read it again before seeing the movie.
Daybreakers was good, but uneven - I more liked the world they lived in than the actual story (and what the heck was Willem Dafoe doing there and what was he wearing???)
Those are solid choices! I'll toast you a bucket of popcorn!!
