摘要：

吸血鬼形象起源于宗教，到中世纪成型，时至今日被搬到银幕、荧屏加以艺术夸张。吸血鬼最初的面孔阴森而又可怕：他们皮肤苍白、牙齿锐利、嘴唇猩红、变化多端。随着人类社会的发展，进入到影视作品中的吸血鬼形象与早期吸血鬼形象大相径庭。例如，影片《暮光之城》中，吸血鬼家族成为俊美冷酷、高雅脱俗的现代贵族，并演绎出人类与吸血鬼之间的纯美爱情。而风靡全球的美剧《吸血鬼日记》同样让神秘恐怖的吸血鬼更加具有人类特质，为吸血鬼与人类的爱情发展铺平了道路。本文将选取这两部经典现代吸血鬼主题影视作品，将其中塑造的吸血鬼形象与历史上早期吸血鬼形象进行对比分析。从相貌，性格，情感三方面展现吸血鬼形象在影视作品中的日益人性化。通过分析这些影视作品的创作背景、意图，指出：早期吸血鬼形象是人类恐惧无知的产物，而今天的吸血鬼形象，则是人类理想与情感的一种寄托。

Abstract: 

The image of vampire was originated in religion and formed in the middle ages. Today, the vampire has been moved to the screens as a result of artistic exaggeration. The early-stage vampires most have ghastly pale face, sharp teeth, scarlet lips and changeable forms. With the development of human society, the images of vampires in the modern film and television works appear greatly different from the images of the early-stage vampires. For example, in the film The Twilight Saga, the vampire family is turned into pretty cool, elegant and refined modern aristocracy.  They can create and sustain pure love with human beings. Likewise, the American TV series The Vampire Diaries also give many human qualities to the mysterious and horrible vampires. All these pave the way for the vampire characters in it to develop their love with human beings. This paper will make a comparative research into the images of early-stage vampires and the images of vampires in the modern films and television works based on these two classic visual works. In this paper, I will reveal the ever-increasing humanization of vampires in the film and television works from three aspects—appearance, character, and emotion. Along with analyzing the background information and intentions of these artistic creations, we could arrive at the conclusion that the early-stage vampire are the products of human fear and ignorance, while today’s vampires in the popular films and televisions give expression to modern people’s ideals and true feelings.
