Totally by accident
everything I seem to read at the moment is about vampires or zombies, I seem to be drawn to that sort of book for whatever reason. I’m currently reading The Strain by Guillermo Del Toro and its getting really exciting now!

So my question is this – what is you favourite book or film which contains vampires? My favourite vampy book is I Am Legend by Richard Matheson and my favourite vampy film is probably The Lost Boys.

Sorry, this isn't helpful.
I was just prepared for the inevitable flurry of comments about me.

For the record, I'm not a Vampire.
I don't know how this vicious rumour started.

Well, I really enjoyed the film.
It was creepy, but kinda touching in places.

I think it will be good! I have bad feelings about the american re-make though!! :S

Book or film... or both!?
I've read the book, it is a-mazing! Can't wait to finish The Strain so I can read the new John Ajvide Lindqvist book about zombies!! :)

Undead and Unwed by Mary-Janice Davidson or Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris
movie would definitely be Interview with the Vampire
I could probably quote half the movie

I'd crawl over burning coals to shag Spike.
Best of all the vampires, including Kaol ;o)

Spike?
Never! He may be the funniest, but the only vampire I'd endure hot coal-induced pain for is Angel.

Edit: Actually, I reckon Angelus is sexier.

( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 23 Jul 2009, 16:05, Reply)

I'm currently
Rereading World War Z, and like you all of the books I';ve been reading lately are about zombies.

The best one I can suggest is the Autumn series, it's all about character development, and great!

Bram Stokers Dracula
Scared the shite out of me as an 8 year old. I really shouldn't have watched those disturbing 80's/early 90's horror films which had actual costumes and Jim Henson style effects rather than CGI.

But Lost Boys is my favourite. Whateverrr haapeeeeeeeennnnned to COREY HAIM!
