1. Dracula (1931)
2. Horror of Dracula (1958)
3. Bakjiwi (Thirst - U.S. title 2009)
4. Nosferatu- a tie between 1922 and 1979 version
5. Dracula (1979)
6. Innocent Blood (1992)
7. John Carpentar's Vampires
8. Vampyr (1932)
9. Let the Right One In (2008)
10. Wes Craven Present's Dracula 2000 (This one's a guilty pleasure. I like the Dracula origin retelling.)
If you have not seen Chan-Wook Park's Thirst yet, I highly recommend it. It's about a Catholic priest that becomes a vampire who is wrestling with his moral dilemma of lusting for human blood. It has some of the director's trademarks of Shakespearean tragedy, dark humor and memorable gore. This is a great complement to his vengeance themed trilogy of films Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Old Boy and Lady Vengeance.
Okay, some honorable mentions, Near Dark, From Dusk to Dawn, all Hammer Studios vampire films, all Universal vampire films, The Foresaken, Fright Night, Blade series, Fearless Vampire Killers, Lost Boys......okay, I give up. There's too many to list.
Hard to run the list, but
1. Dracula 1931
2. Taste the Blood of Dracula (I believe-and there's a "Holy Grail"-backstory there)
3. House of Dark Shadows
4. Night Stalker
5. Lost Boys
6. Return of the Vampire
7. Nosferatu 1922
8. Mark of the Vampire ( I know, not a true Vamp film)
9. Bram Stoker's Dracula
10. Vamp--Grace Jones really creeped me out with her 1st on screen victim
and special mention to everyone's list altho I've not yet seen Fearless Vampire Hunters or Vampire Lovers, and AM a big Fan of Carpenters Dracula 2000
Nosferatu(1922)
Dracula( Spanish version:1931. Far more superior than to Bela's performance. That's RIGHT, I said it!!!)
Dracula/Horror of Dracula(1958)
Dracula: Prince of Darkness(1965)
Last Man on Earth(1964, still considered to be a VAMPIRE flick)
Dracula(1979, Frank Langella performance as Count Dracula, amazing)
Fright Night(1985, Chris Sarandon is such a Scumbag in this movie....got to love him)
Vampiros Lesbos (1970/1971)

Conviently enough I made a list of my top 10 a while back on my old laptop. Most of these are Hammer:
1. Dracula Has Risen From the Grave
2. Son of Dracula
3. Horror of Dracula
4. The Vampire Lovers
5. Lust for a Vampire
6. Dracula A.D. 1972
7. Last Man on Earth
8. Taste the Blood of Dracula
9. Dracula: Prince of Darkness
10. Brides of Dracula
This is my original list, but I think I could change it. I really like Dracula's Daughter and From Dusk Till Dawn, but haven't included them, and Taste the Blood of Dracula and Dracula: Prince of Darkness aren't really great. I'm also not sure about the Last Man on Earth- are they meant to be zombies or vampires?

Good question! But, I think in Richard Matheson's I Am Legend, those afflicted by the plague appear to be vampires.
In the films, for example Omega Man, they are vampires. But, in Last Man on Earth, I would go with Zombies.
Kinda confusing. ;D
