I've yet to see a vampire film with a better ending than Lips of Blood.
And speaking of endings, is it just me or does the vampire film genre seem to suffer more than any other horror related genre from unsatisfactory endings? You know the ones I'm talking about. The ones where the seemingly omnipotent undead count always ends up being undone by a pudding-faced priest or a semi-literate yokel. I mean the count has survived for some 500+ years, evading war and famine, only to have a stake driven through his heart by some fin de siecle equivalent of a grocery store bag boy. Totally unsatisfactory, if you ask me.
