LOL, I was speaking more to the recent portrayal of vampires as sexy.  It isn't recent.  Here's some more: The Lost Boys, Lifeforce, The Hunger, Vampire Hunter D, Lair of the White Worm.  I'm writing without regard to gender.

And in the 90s you have another resurgence.  Bram Stokers Dracula, Innocent Blood, Buffy (and the Series), From Dusk Till Dawn, Carpenters' Vampires, Blade and more.  All hot gals or guys playing vampires.

IMHO, from the 60s onwards, Vampires have been played by hotties more than notties.
