On a Bloody Spree

I've always had a thing for the vampire genre, books and films. But I've suddenly now caught onto the current trend for all things dangerously irresistible.

The new Twilight movie, which was total cheese but a good laugh, surprising that as it's supposed to be based on the book series...True Blood as you've heard, and I've been going through my film collection: Afore mentioned The Hunger, Interview with a Vampire and one of my favs Bram Stokers Dracula (Coppola). I saw the latter in my late teens, so it kinda coincided with puberty and all that sexual awakening. I have to say, it was probably the first time I knew what the word 'erotic' truly meant. Something on a higher level than plain carnal sex I think. Other than that, I thought the story was moving in all it's extremes: The idea that someone could defy God and death, to become a monster, a killer for the hope of being reunited with the one you love..."I have crossed oceans of time..." Ah! It's a love story really, but I've read the book by Stoker and it reads more like a mystery story, it doesn't have all the emotional background. Well done Coppola!

I wonder what's next for us fang bangers?
