In Search of a Vampire Film?
It was an old and obscure classic film, where this royal linage of vampire hunters covertly goes up against a royal linage of vampires. I remember that the daughter of the head of the vampire hunter clan, goes undercover, as a servent for the head vampire, which the vampire hunter clan was after, for many years. I also remember that the vampires in this film, had fangs that outrageously extended down to their chins. I also can't forget a really spooky and surreal scene, where this giant vampire bat is flying through some underground catacombs, in slow motion. It was one of those old movies that used to play on one of those Saturday afternoon creature feature shows, back in the '70's....

…you know, over the years, I’ve acquired a certain and definite appreciation for the Mexi-imported horror films, which were produced (…and re-edited for Statside consumption) by K. Gordon Murray, especially the varied vampire films, which he produced (…those starring the late German Robles, titles like "World of the Vampires", "Samson vs. the Vampire Women", the vampiric ‘Nostradamus’ trilogy). As such, I have become quite intimately familiar with these films, and based upon your description, you seemed to have pegged upon one of the more moody and atmospheric of the bunch; the film that you’re looking for, sounds very much like the chilling and spooky 1965 vampire film, "The Bloody Vampire"….
….initially I was dubious and doubtful about specifically zeroing upon your description; however, once you mentioned that unusually large slow-motion bat, flying through a cave (…lined with crates and coffins, as I recall), I pretty much knew that this was what you were talking about….

It sounds like a Hammer Productions film- look up a list of their films on Internet Movie Database.
