oh that's cool. vampires are now really popular at the mo. last horror trend was zombies, and now it's vampires' turn.
I like Guillermo del Torro. i'm not too crazy for the Hellboy movies, though, but I did like Pan's Labyrinth.
My taste run exactly the opposite of commenter deaf brown trash punk. I enjoyed the Hellboy movies although I liked Hellboy 1 better.
I found Pam's Labyrinth to be a very imaginative movie, but the story was such a tragedy and I was quite sad when the movie ended.
It's only recently that I started reading good vampire novels (trying to steer clear of the garbage), but this one looks like it good definitely have potential!!!
A vampire virus. Color me thrilled.
This could go the "Racing to Find a Cure" route, or the "They're not evil, they're sick" ploy. Hopefully neither. Maybe both?
Jeff - Definitely neither.
