This list is painful. It's cluttered, badly formatted, and inconsistently written. I intend to chainsaw it into reasonable shape, something along the following lines:
If anyone has any thoughts or objections let's talk about it. I want to make this a functional list for readers and at the moment it just is not that. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 12:17, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
Both main sections now converted to sortable tables (from 3-column bullet-lists). I believe this may warrant the removal of the Layout issues tag, but I'll leave that to more experienced editors to decide. The information is essentially unchanged, although I realised late in the exercise that I was ignoring nested bullets indicating series links, so someone may want to add series references in the notes. The tables are in their original order - apparently by date of first film in a series. Ideally, I guess they'd be sorted by date of film, but I figure with the sortable table it doesn't really matter. Both tables could use a lot of additional details, most of which can probably be gleaned from the links to the movies' individual pages. I hope I've picked an appropriate set of fields and that I've correctly attributed the "by" credits as Directors. Running time and Producer strike me as the most likely additions.

This seems questionable to me because, while I think I know why it was added -- the film had an alternate title, The Vampire -- I can't find any other reference which would indicate that the film departed from the source material La Gioconda in including a Vampire. In fact, descriptions (and these may or may not simply be taken from La Gioconda's synopsis, since the film is lost) of it follow La Gioconda's plot in all the particulars. The Vampire would then be a metaphorical rather than literal description of Gioconda Dianti, who seeks revenge on her lover by seducing and destroying new lovers. This list does not properly include metaphorical vampires, unless there's something I'm missing. For these reasons I'd say we should find a source for the inclusion of a literal vampire in the film; else it's dubious. Graatch (talk) 21:37, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
The animated movie "Dracula: Sovereign Of The Damned" (aka "Tomb of Dracula"; 1980) should be in the DRACULA section of the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.149.237.131 (talk) 17:32, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
Is there any source that calls this the first vampire film? The title very clearly communicates Méliès intended the character to be the Devil, so why should the Devil be a vampire? Besides, in the film, except for turning into a bat, which is not exclusive prerogative of a vampire, nothing else pays any tribute to the folklore about vampires. It seems a major stretch to include it. Kumagoro-42 (talk) 12:34, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
B-movie legend Al Adamson directed several vampire films – e.g. Blood of Dracula's Castle (1967), Dracula vs. Frankenstein (1971), Doctor Dracula (1978) – but none of them is in the list. Should we add them? Kumagoro-42 (talk) 14:09, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
