in john carpenter's vampires
Vampire:
Valek (Thomas Ian Griffith) is the oldest living vampire. Long black leather coat, ability to fly, telepathy, superhuman strength. He drinks blood and bites Katrina on the thigh rather than the neck, which is a refreshing change. Crosses don’t work, no turning into bats, garlic fails. Direct sunlight and a stake through the heart are the only way to kill a vampire.
would have been a better movie if the vampire won.

Thomas says he likes the myths of vampires. There is a taboo within this mystery, which contains also the dark sides of sexuality.
