Was Blade: Trinity the last of the Blade flicks or are there more to come? No one seems to have an answer to that, especially Blade himself, Wesley Snipes. In an interview with Deadline, Snipes said that he’s still interested kicking some serious vampire ass as Blade, but unfortunately he hasn’t heard anything about a …
The Gates, a supernatural soap opera that premiered on ABC this past summer, has been canceled. Sorry Gates fans, but there won’t be a second season. I can’t say that I am disappointed, the one episode that I watched didn’t impress me in the least. I was bored. For those that haven’t heard of The …

No other actor has played the part of Count Dracula in so many films. As a consequence, none other has gazed into so many initially hesitant sets of eyes belonging to beautiful women–Caroline Munro, Barbara Hershey, Linda Hayden, Veronica Carlson to name just a few.

For all practical purposes, the trope Vampire Lesbian emerged with Joseph Sheridan LeFanu’s novella “Carmilla.” Eventually, with the rise of a new medium–motion pictures–an adaptation of that story appeared. “Crypt of the Vampire” became one of the still-relatively few such. The trope, however, could be seen in “Dracula’s Daughter” as well as the eerie “Vampyr.” …
Robin was the sexy principal of the newly rebuilt Sunnydale High School when Buffy’s little sister, Dawn, began her sophomore year.

It is an iconic movement, an action in vampire films re-created many times. The motion pictures “Fright Night” and “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” both had their versions. For many, it remains one of the most memorable events in the first great film of one genre–as well as being a landmark in at least two others. Graf …

It came out this …
Recently I was having a discussion on goodreads.com asking the question, if vampires were real what book would you want it to be like? There were different replies here and there, but what caught my eye was this one comment that said she wanted it to be like Twilight. :groan: Ok, fine, I can deal …
