Sorry, Johnny Depp.

You may be playing a vampire in Tim Burton's upcoming horror flick Dark Shadows, but costar Chloe Moretz still thinks Robert Pattinson is Hollywood's hottest bloodsucker...

"They're two very different vampires," Moretz told us at Spike TV's Scream Awards in Los Angeles. "I'd say that Edward [Cullen] is a lot more sexy and hot, and I think that Johnny's a lot more tortured and deep."

Based on the 1960s TV series, Dark Shadows follows the adventures of centuries-old vampire Barnabas Collins (Depp) and his various run-ins with monsters, witches, werewolves and ghosts.

Fourteen-year-old Moretz plays a "fun-loving 1972 hippie" in the film who actually has to help Barnabas out in the dating department.

"He comes into my room and asks me about how to get a girl in 1972, because he's Victorian," she laughed. "He's from the Elizabethan Age, and he's a vampire. He comes in and he's like, 'How do I get this woman?'"

As for working with Depp, Moretz gushed, "He's amazing. He goes out of his way to be nice and...He makes you very comfortable on set."
