Re: [scifinoir2] Recommend Your Vampire Favorites
I'm very fond of Tanya Huff's Blood books, about a Toronto PI working with a vampire. And before anyone gets any ideas, they started coming out in the late '80s. They were turned into a series on the Lifetime network, which didn't last past season one.

You'd love True Blood, then--I just LOVE how they've been portrayed people of all different appearances and ages to be vampires.

Dance of the Vampires (aka The Fearless Vampire Killers) - Roman Polanski's comedic take was goofy, entertaining fun Dracula (1972) - the classic with Peter Cushing as Van Helsing and Christopher Lee as the Count. Gotta love using the candlesticks to make a Cross! Blacula - so bad it's good, Blaxploitation enters the realm of the Undead Salem's Lot - the original miniseries. The little vampire boy floating oustide saying Mommy, I'm cold still creeps me out. Fright Night - another fun movie about vampires, with a good modern take. The Lost Boys - the movie's a kick, vamps like some kind of fun-loving Peter Pans--who just happen to like chewing on necks! Ultraviolet - the Brit miniseries that took a new (to me) take on vamps as a misunderstood ethnic group. Good, intelligent, and atmospheric. Blade and Blade II - not like the comic, but good escapist action -- Original message -- From: tdemorsella [EMAIL PROTECTED] aladvantage. com a few days ago, Bosco brought to our attention, a Vampire flick (Let The Right One In) that many of us likely would have missed. Are their other gems out there? Please post a list of some of your favorite vampire movies and books. Tracey
