10 Great Monster Movies You've Never Seen

6. Boys From County Hell

You can't have a list about monster movies and not include at least one about vampires.

In Boys From County Hell, when construction destroys a sacred monument where an ancient vampire supposedly sleeps, a small Irish town has the night of its life.

Writing wise, it's top notch, dealing with the complex nature of father and son relationships and skillfully balancing between comedically heartfelt and gratuitously violent. As far as its monster goes, this vampire is guaranteed to be unlike one you've ever seen before.

This creature of the night is not some beautiful, misunderstood hot guy, but rather a complete and utter bloodthirsty beast. The thing is so ugly that it's almost beautiful. Even better however is the way it consumes blood. Instead of having to sink its teeth into its victims, it works like a blood magnet. Just by being in the same proximity as it, your blood will begin to leak from the orifices of your body, eventually merging together into one giant blood pool that it drinks from.

Is it disgusting? Yes. But, that just makes it all the more awesome.
