Martin (1977)
Martin earns its 8 by asking a question that quietly dismantles the entire vampire genre. What if there is no such thing as a vampire, only a disturbed young man who believes he is one?
Lincoln Maazel played the grandfather in George Romero’s Martin, whose conviction that his grandson is a vampire drives the film’s ambiguity. He was a concert singer and the father of the conductor Lorin Maazel, and lived to a hundred and six.
