Here is an extremely useful scale to see how dark, macho, pink and/or homo a movie vampire is. As you may have guessed, the Twilight lot is on the top right extreme. i.e. Not macho or dark at all. Quite shameful for a vampire if you ask me.
Not surprisingly, Blade is one of the most macho vampires to date, though he is unable to match Nosferatu when it comes to unadulterated darkness. I wonder where Count Duckula would be. Probably somewhere near Twilight.
