True Blood Actors Chat About Their Character’s Deaths

True Blood Actors Chat About Their Character’s Deaths

As every True Blood fan can confirm, Season 4 was big, bloody and packed full of character deaths. We lost loads of beloved characters this season, and a few not-so-beloved characters.

True Blood Season Finale – And When I Die

True Blood Season Finale – And When I Die

True Blood – Season 4 Finale – And When I Die Wow. Just, wow. Most of this finale was just wrapping things up; the whole sequence with Marnie and Lafayette and Jesus didn’t actually last that long. Once that was over, at about the halfway mark, they got busy establishing peeks into the new subplots …

Summit Entertainment, the folks behind the Twilight films, have filed a lawsuit against Twilight.com.

Review of ‘Blood Lite’ by Charlaine Harris, Sherrilyn Kenyon and Many More

Review of ‘Blood Lite’ by Charlaine Harris, Sherrilyn Kenyon and Many More

A long while back I picked up a used copy of Blood Lite: An Anthology of Humorous Horror Stories only because it had a story in it by my all-time favorite author Sherrilyn Kenyon. I read her story only and then set Blood Lite on my shelves where it was promptly forgotten – until now. …

How I Would Have Done Twilight

How I Would Have Done Twilight

Is there a more controversial vampire story than Stephenie Meyers’ “Twilight” saga? Doesn’t seem likely. For one thing, fans and detractors of the series hardly even try to restrain themselves. Some Twihards literally cannot even see any tale of the undead or of lycanthropes through any other lens (the notorious poster who called “The Wolf …

Dark Shadows Photo Updates

Dark Shadows Photo Updates

Production of “Dark Shadows” under the direction of Tim Burton continues in England, with considerable security surrounding. So much so very little actual information is becoming available.

More Vampire Games for the Vampire Lovin’ Gamers

More Vampire Games for the Vampire Lovin’ Gamers

I bring thee more games! Woot! See, I love video games, particularly vampire games (BloodRayne FTW!) so I am pretty geeked that the vampire disease has infected not only the film and book industries, but the video game industry as well. However, it hasn’t infected the bigger gamer companies since very few vampire games are …

A World of Vampires, Magic and Little French Witches

A World of Vampires, Magic and Little French Witches

Yes, such a place exists. It’s a world full of not only magic, dragons, mermaids and witches, but vampires too. I’m talking about Tara Duncan, a French cartoon show that has just recently made it stateside. The magical show, which has been translated into English, is based on an incredibly popular book series by author …

True Blood Season 4 – Soul of Fire

True Blood Season 4 – Soul of Fire

True Blood – Season 4 – Soul of Fire Great episode; naturally there were a few things that peeved me, but, on the other hand, the body count alone, plus the mad action, made everything worthwhile. And this isn’t even the climax! We still have a hellacious shindig waiting for us in the next episode, …
