“twilight & history” by Nancy R. Reagin

“twilight & history” by Nancy R. Reagin

When I first picked up “twilight & history” by Nancy R. Reagin, I knew that it followed the story of Twilight and delved into the histories of the different characters. That was about all I knew, and I hoped that I wasn’t about to embark on a dry and dreary tale. I mean really, there’s …

The Vampire Diaries, Season 1, Episode 20

The Vampire Diaries, Season 1, Episode 20

Be prepared for flashbacks galore, this episode is chock full of tedious looking back on events; maybe it’s a personal taste issue… But I just can’t get into a flashback. Why not just sum it up in a single sentence: “Stefan forced Damon to transition to full vampire… back in yesteryear.” That was basically the …

American Idol + Vampires = Cheesy

American Idol + Vampires = Cheesy

So, American Idol contestants put on the fangs and contact lenses in a vampire themed commercial for Ford. Yea… the entire commercial left me cringing. The whole 48 seconds I watched I kept wondering if they were purposely trying to be cheesy and campy, or if it was meant to be a badass vampire commercial.  …

The Gates: New Vampire Series On ABC?

The Gates: New Vampire Series On ABC?

I really frigging hope so; honestly, we can’t have too many vampire shows out there, even if they suck massively, they’ll still have vampires. But it’s weird, because we haven’t really heard anything about this show, have we? I mean, very few bloggers out there were in the know about this show, –I came across …

Recently, I signed up to Reign of Blood, to see what all fuss was about. Right away, it’s easy to tell why vampire fans are going to enjoy it so much.

The Batman Vs Dracula

The Batman Vs Dracula

Adrian Lux Can’t Sleep … Because He’s Busy Running from Swedish Vampires!

Adrian Lux Can’t Sleep … Because He’s Busy Running from Swedish Vampires!

It’s not just writers, television producers, and film producers, that are cashing in on all the megabucks flowing from the vampire craze; it’s musicians too. Normally, this would make me insane with cranky bitch-fit rage, but I love Swedish pop, and generally most Eastern European music, –plus, Adrian Lux is way hot. We recently got …

After Dark Film Original: Prowl

After Dark Film Original: Prowl

After Dark Films have a bit of a spotty reputation; they’ve produced and exposed films like Frontier(s) and Tooth and Nail, –and then they throw shit at us like Penny Dreadful, and Nightmare Man, –which, my boss thought was just the pinnacle of good horror that year. Sure, if you like movies that can’t even …
