What sucks is Byron historically took credit for The Vampyre, then when it was revealed to be Polidori no one cared because Byron was better known and more well liked. So even in real life Byron was as much of a bunghole as he is in film
I just saw this film recently. Now my autistic ass has stayed up all night researching Polidori and his tragic life. I even red one of his essays he wrote, staying up til 5 am reading all 63 pages. And of course Alex looks like Cupid throughout this entire film. How dare they abuse him? 😢 That scene of him crying tore me to pieces! Damn you Lord Byron! Damn you all for disrespecting Polidori until his death at just 25! Even after his death he was disrespected. His grave was dug up and hewdstone supposedly crammed with many others surrounding a tree while his body was dumped into a pit with the others that were dug up. I love Alex and love Polidori. 🥺
Alex really has an incredible charisma in this film - he seems so vulnerable, really like an angel. His performance also really touched me, especially the scene where he cries... it's just so extremely heartbreaking.😢 And of course I also feel so sorry for poor Polidori.🥺
@cachal I just bought the soundtrack from the movie and I plan on getting the DVD too since it's such an obscure film (apparently). I can't explain to you the feelings I felt when I first heard the opening track and saw the opening scenes/credits. I felt like a little girl on Christmas morning, discovering something magical and whimsical. But it only broke my heart in the end so I totally relate! 😢😭 I also plan to get a book of Polidori's poems to read as well.
Alex Winter is great in a period film because I always thought he looked like a classic painting
Interestingly, Dr. Polidori wrote the short story "The Vampyre," and then Alex Winter ended up playing one in Lost Boys. ;D
It's all connected XD

He somehow reminds me of Timothee Chalamet in this movie.
Does anyone else get turned on just hearing him speak?
Yea. Alex was a baddie back in the 80s 🤭
Alexs voice doesn't surprise me. He's half British
