Wasn't that vampire hunters?<br /><br />The vampires of my youth were horrible looking. If that's what the cost of immortality was, you could keep it. But it looks like there's been a major makeover . . .Peg Brantleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04906858123466177508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4954486699810607306.post-4870744197445511032011-05-31T09:29:52.316-07:002011-05-31T09:29:52.316-07:00I videotaped the movie long ago, and never got aro...I videotaped the movie long ago, and never got around to watching it, and then we moved and ditched all our old tapes. Can't say the vampire craze has done anything for me. But then, I didn't read the Harry Potter series, either. And, dare I confess, I haven't read Jane Austen either.Terry Odellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610682530545306687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4954486699810607306.post-66077860676198545822011-05-30T13:48:16.647-07:002011-05-30T13:48:16.647-07:00I hadn't thought of the cannibalism aspect bef...I hadn't thought of the cannibalism aspect before, L.J.!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12487464497446199247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4954486699810607306.post-24621071441267352412011-05-30T12:25:46.082-07:002011-05-30T12:25:46.082-07:00I read Interview with a Vampire when it first came...I read Interview with a Vampire when it first came out and thought it was a great story. I haven't read any vampire books since, but I think a huge part of the cultural fascination with the genre is the concept of immortality. It's also a rather seductive (nonlethal) form of cannibalism.L.J. Sellershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10213491074676394406noreply@blogger.com
