...All the damn Vampyres! - Yahoo news story.

Post by Mark Anthony Quested » Fri Nov 18, 2011 12:17 pm

A very elderly man leaves his computer desk and walks over to his fridge. Lifting up the flap marked “Old Fart’s shelf”, he takes out a Root Beer and an Oreo cookie. Closing the fridge, he turns to his great grandson and says…

“If there’s one thing about surfing the Internet I cannot stomach; all the damn Psychic and Sanguine Vampyres!”

Now I might just be cynical, but has anyone else noticed that this “real vampire” craze (or mystical bollocks, to steal a quote from Weebles) seemed to manifest itself AFTER the release of “Vampire – The Masquerade”?
Yours, aye!

Merticus talks bollocks
The first bit sounds like Bruce Wayne, and the second bit sounds like Batman.

Found this tonight:

"Gaiman noted that he hadn’t read the [Twilight] books, but ultimately was looking for something to replace teen vampires."

Wll, since everything nowadays in the genre seems to be about kewl vampires and zombies, a new fad will come along…
Fundraiser. You know, it's like Hellraiser, but without the Cenobites, the blood and all that.

There's this Japanese artist who paints nymphomaniac sex-crazed nude vampire girls with dicks and tails... I'd like to see something like that after the Twilight hype. *whistle*
