Despite the success of The Twilight Saga, Robert Pattinson's popularity still wasn't enough to make him the hottest vampire as Brad Pitt took the lead in a new poll.

Pitt's role as Louis de Pointe du Lac from 1994's Interview with the Vampire has helped him get the top spot in a new WENN.com monster list, with just a few votes ahead of Pattinson.

Pitt got 44 per cent of the votes, while Pattinson was very close at 43 per cent.

Kiefer Sutherland was in third place for his role as a blood-sucking teenager in The Lost Boys, ahead of Dracula star Gary Oldman and Blade's Wesley Snipes.
