Vampires are mythological beings, you don't take advantage and deform the myth to fit your story.
I noticed you don't see the bad side of this. Yes it is a movie, but do you know how much influence do movies have nowadays? A lot of kids watch Twilight and they will grow up thinking vampires sparkle when they expose to light. It will fuck up and entire mythology. I don't believe in vampires but I like mythology and I respect it as it is. I hate when a shitty writer fucks up all these great treasure we have with a shitty movie.
Take Underworld for example, again. It was more than amazing for me and they did not modify the actual myth. Lycans, were a race invented for the movie, but they did not mess up with Vampires and Werewolves at all. Actually they depicted vampires as the myth says, they don't care about humans but only for their bloodline.
Get it now? It's not just a simple movie. I'm talking about influence.
