Death to Vampires

There are many ways that movie producers kill off the undead. Some are as classic as using the wooden stake method through the heart. Other movies tend to get a little more creative with their techniques.

The movie Blade has many newer concepts used throughout it to kill the blood sucking vampires. The small but deadly silver bullets, silver daggers and best of all vampire mace are stuffed into Blades arsenal.

Sunlight has been portrayed in several movies to kill vampires. If the vampire is not a day walker, sunlight will burn the vampire to ashes. A great example of what sunlight can do is seen in the movie Blade. Poor Orlok from the movie Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror met his final moments after Ellen seduces the vampire with her sweet blood long enough for him to meet the morning.

While garlic, holy water and a crucifix will not kill an attacking movie vampire it will detour them enough for their helpless victim to run screaming and hopefully not tripping over their own feet on the way.

Beheading a movie vampire will most definitely do them in. In Night Hunter Jack shows movie goers how this done while he is rushing to kill off as many vampires as he can. With only five remaining Jack hunts them down to end their existence before they have a chance to mate under the solar eclipse.

In The Lost Boys taking out the head vampire worked wonderfully. When the head vampire Max is staked by Lucy's grandfather they all hope that Michael would turn back into a normal human.
The more extreme measures of taking out vampires are through dismemberment and of course then burnt to ashes. In the movie Twilight the Cullen family demonstrates this type of vampire slaying quite nicely. The unsuspecting menace James will not be trying to use Bella as bait any longer.
