One of the best Vampire movies out there

Dracula, Angel, Spike, Blade, Edward. Which one of those doesn’t belong?

Let me start off by saying, “I love Vampire movies.” I like anything that’s going to scare me. Lately, Hollywood has lacked…dare I say it…balls to scare me. Any “scary” movie that has come out in the last 10 years has done nothing. I take that back. There was one scene in Freddy Vs Jason that got me to jump, and it wasn’t even a part that was supposed to scare you. But, back to the Vampires.

Ever since those God-awful books came out, it marked the death of the real Vampires. Gone were the rules. Gone were the “I want to eat you” mentality. In comes glitter. GLITTER! I don’t think my point is coming through here. THEY F’N GLITTER, and in comes a love story that makes you want to lose your lunch everyday for the rest of your life. I like romance. You could call me a hopeless romantic through and through, but that love story makes no sense. She isn’t a Vampire slayer, so it’s not a forbidden love. Nope, just two people in love and one glitters.

You see it everywhere. The CW has a Vampire show that I can’t name because, from the previews, it just looks boring, so I don’t even bother with it. However, True Blood over on HBO seems to have some steam behind it. Maybe, just maybe, the Vampires still live; just not in that world created by a woman who was kicked out of the Vampire literary council (note: tried to find a link, but Google is failing me on this one) for damaging the image of Vampires in the 21st century. You think I am kidding, but it happened.

I, SuperMonk, hereby declare that the Vampire as we know it-loved it and enjoyed watching it-IS DEAD. May the world forgive us for what they have done.

Enjoy the opening to the last great Vampire Franchise
