Favorite Female Vampires?
I need to see more female vampire movies after watching Daughters of Darkness and Velvet Vampire.
My ranking is:
Drucilla from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Juliet Landau should have had a bigger career. I loved how Drucilla could go from clever and cunning to the mind of a child in one scene. She was mentally ill and dangerous but also I had pity for her.
Abigail the body of a child yet also far more clever and wise than what she was along with very dangerous. She does on some level remind me of Claudia from the movie and novel Interview With The Vampire. In the novel it emphasized more on why child vampires are a very bad idea - they are essentially defenseless and need protection. I have not seen the series beyond episode three. I liked how Abigail could at some level take care of herself but also needs adult help. Abigail 2 really needs to focus more on her relationship with her dad.
Elizabeth Bathory from Daughters of Darkness. I loved Delphine Seyrig’s performance. She showed how dangerous vampires can be not through physical strength but through playing head games and manipulating people. Her manipulation of Valerie and Stefan was a class performance.
I would include Selene from Underworld and Vampirella but to me I would rank them as a different species of human. I love Vampirella comics but she and Selene were born vampires and I view them as a humanoid species. Oh what happened to the Vampirella series? There was talk a few years ago. I am only listing humans who became vampires. I believe also Lily Munster was born a vampire.
