Thanks to all who responded. As you might have guessed, lesbian
vampires are a popular subject -- even among males! Here is a summary
of the comments I received. This is not the new FAQ :-) .

Velvet Vampire
Vampire (maid 1972, if I member it right)

I'm hardly an expert on vampire flicks but THE HUNGER (by Tony "yellow
light" Scott, who also directed Top Gun.  Starring David Bowie,
Catherine Deneuve, and Susan Sarandon) might be worth a look?  I
thought it was a cool flick except for the ending.

THE VAMPIRE LOVERS AND THE HUNGER
I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THESE OTHERS....VAMPIRE HOOKERS, VAMPYRES
AND THE VELVET VAMPIRE.

See the movie Liquid Sky.  Not about vampires but it may lead you in the
right direction.

Despite my belief that you cannot intentionally write a cult film, heres
a few titles and such:

Anything by french lesbian vampire specialist Jean Renoir is a good place
to start.  

The Vampire Lovers <1970, Hammer>
Dracula's Daughter <1936, Universal>
Lust for A Vampire <1971, Hammer. Sequel to Vampire Lovers, tones down the
lebianism>
Vampyres, Daughters Of Dracula <1975, Cambist> <More bi than lesbian>

There are more, but tracking down all the films that followed "The Vampire
Lovers" down this path, especially the european ones, is a tough task.

the Jean Renoir ones can be very effective and/or very laughable, often
in the same scene. Only title i can dredge up is the obvious "Les
Vampyros Lesbian" or something along those lines. check some issues of
European Trash Cinema for more info. They really like Renoir.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Hammer's _The Vampire Lovers_, a bare-breasted adaptation of Le Fanu's
_Carmilla_, featuring Ingrid Pitt. Excuse me now, while I go take a 
cold shower.

  The vampire lesbian trilogy that somebody asked about last week is
_The Vampire Lovers_ (based, in theory anyway, on J. Sheridan Le Fanu's
_Carmilla_), _Lust for a Vampire_, and _Twins of Evil_.
  I've only seen the middle film. It's an entry in the t&b genre (the "b"
standing for "blood" :-) ). Good performances, but nothing to write home
about.
-The Stainless Steel Moviegoer

How about Roger Vadim's Blood and Roses, supposedly a movie version
of the great short story Carmilla?  It's no great shakes, but it is
on tape from Paramount for under 10 bucks, though it is apparently
a chopped-up American version.

Charles Busch (sp?) is a playwright who has written a number of very odd
productions.  One of them was called something like "Vampire Lesbians of
Sodom."  I'm told it's very funny and strange.  The only play he's written
which I'm familiar with is "Psycho Beach Party," which we did here at
Rutgers a couple of years ago.  This play is about a gidget-type teen with
multiple personalities and a very oppressive mommie-dearest-type mother.
If "Vampire Lesbians" is anything like it, It's bound to be weird.

from that....??....good luck...

And then there's a British film (a BFI production) called The
Mark of Lilith made in the late '80s by a group of women which
tackles the vampire myth by way of lesbianism, feminism and 
racism. Probably not easy to track down though...
