Just in time for Halloween, I dig up this robotic, vampiric gem.
As a kid, there was this weird little comic book place that sold RPG books and rented out obscure Asian movies. They also kept a giant fish that looked like it could take off someone's hand, if I remember right. This is where I was properly introduced to the world of anime, back in better days when it was know as "those weird cartoons". This is also where I discovered ROBO VAMPIRE! As a kid, I was expecting...well, y'know...a robo-vampire. Instead, I got Budget Robocop, hopping weirdos, and a ghost chick with long sleeves. I couldn't make any sense of it then, but as an adult, I've come to appreciate the sheer, unrestrained awesomeness of it much more. Despite pretty much lying in the title...well, it's called ROBO VAMPIRE! Do you need any more reason to see it?! Okay, it combines Robocop (quite overtly) with awesome hopping Asian vampires, and has one of the best endings of all time. (As I remember, Robowarrior finally stops getting his ass handed to him by the hopping vampires, he lights them on fire with a flamethrower, and the movie abruptly ends.)
Here's the Encyclopedia Obscure entry on it:

Someone should turn this into a Resident Evil mod.
