Can someone explain to me this current fad that is utterly obsessed with vampires?
At the movies tonight, I saw two previews for vampire movies, neither of which have anything to do with that Twilight dreck. One was about harvesting humans or something, and the other was about some kid joining a vampire circus. Both look absolutely ridiculous.
Maybe I just don't like vampires. I think everything after Bram Stoker's Dracula (the book, which was great, not the movie, which was bad) is just a repeat of same theme over and over. Maybe in the realm of monsters, I always sided with creatures like werewolves. (Lycans were not sissies like the vampires in the Underworld movies.)
In fact, the last decent vampire movie was Nosferatu, and that came out in 1922.
So, if someone would be so kind, since I'm sure there is someone on these boards who will vehemently defend this fad, explain to me the appeal. I just don't understand it.
