Acting in self-interest at the expense of others is generally considered evil.
Altruistic acts are generally considered good.
But, that being said, where one draws the line does vary from person to person. Some people are perfectly willing to trade the lives of an 'innocent'(non-related to the issue bystander) for their own, or their child's, or their clan's, or their country's.

I wouldn't fault the vampire for wanting to live, all the same, I would do my level best to kill it as a threat to my family. In the same vein, I wouldn't fault a bear or cougar for going after my kid while we are hiking, but fault or no, I wouldn't hesitate to shoot it in that situation.
