摘要：吸血鬼文化经神话传说、民间故事、诗歌小说走向电影、动漫、游戏等更加丰富的艺术领域，成为大众文化中重要的一部分。吸血鬼电影对吸血鬼热潮席卷全世界起着至关重要的推动作用。本文研究的吸血鬼电影是以吸血鬼为主要角色的故事片。吸血鬼影片的发展经过了恐怖伯爵、半人半魔、完美偶像三个阶段。目前对吸血鬼影片中吸血鬼形象流变的研究多从电影叙事、心理学、恐怖类型片等方面切入，本文以三个阶段的代表作：惊情四百年、夜访吸血鬼和暮光之城系列电影为例，运用知识社会学的社会境况决定论和倒溯归因法探索吸血鬼影片中吸血鬼形象变化与社会境况的关系，从更深的层面上去挖掘吸血鬼电影的吸血鬼形象流变发生的社会根源。吸血鬼热潮数次平息又数次被点燃，笔者希望从社会学角度揭开吸血鬼在大荧幕上经久不衰的秘密。
