Pirates > Vampires
End of thread.
But on a more serious note, I hate that Twilight thing. I don't know what it is, it just needs to stop.
How about Vampire Pirates?
Vampirates? That'd be kind of cool, actually, if taken quasi-seriously. Think Davy Jone's mooks from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and give them a bloodthirsty twist. They sail in stormy seas in cloudy latitudes to avoid the sunlight, and thirst for rum AND blood.
There could be worse ideas for a B-movie.

But seriously, watch Hellsing, if Alucard doesn't get you intrested in Vampires I don't know what will.

Seconded. Anime is an acquired taste, but if you don't mind Japanese cartoons, Hellsing is a nice return to form for the oft-used children of the night. Alucard, our brutal 'hero', has no philosophic wangsting [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Wangst] over his unlife - just booming, sociopathic laughter as he proceed to butcher an entire room full of baddies with oversized handguns and his gorgeously animated supernatural powers. Hellsing - the ultimate guilty pleasure for fanboys seeking Twilight refuge.
