I was going to say that it depends on whether vampires are dead or not, or whether they're considered human or no longer.
But then I remembered, hang on, animals engage in necrophilia too (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necrophilia#Animals).
Now, if the vampire is a reanimated corpse that's powered by the vitae of living creatures, you'd think this gets complicated, but I don't think it does -- whatever it is, live or dead, a vampire is an organism, and since it can move and react to its surroundings, you can still use language that was reserved for entities that are humans and animals. So I'm figuring that, yes, even when we're talking about dead vampire variants, it's still called necrophilia.
Now... the question is... if a robot fucks a corpse, is that necrophilia too?
I think it is. Vampires may not be properly breathing or metabolizing, but generally I think if it's acting like a person, treat it like one, which means that the rules about necrophilia and such apply.
So is it bestiality when a vampire fucks a werewolf in wolf form? I would tend to say not, because a werewolf is still a person, at least in most fiction, but then there are legendary aspects that seem to indicate that the wolf form is only an animal and doesn't retain humanity.
It's only necrophilia if the zombie does not retain any autonomous functions. Obviously fucking "live" zombies (i.e. 28 Days Later zombies) are okay, since they're still alive, so it's not necrophilia.
With classic zombies, though, it's necrophilia, mainly because they are considered automatons, in a sense (rogue ones, admittedly). BUT... with regards to Land of the Dead's "Big Daddy", maybe not, since he and his kind were already showing signs of intelligence.
