Vampires

Ok, so I read the Twilight books. And I'll admit it, I enjoyed them. Well, I enjoyed the first one a lot, and then it just went downhill from there. But the reason why I liked them was because the vampires weren't normal vampires. But then the last book came along and was just filled with typical, disgusting, vampire crap. So that's really kind of disenchanted me from the whole series. And the movies are awful. But that's another story altogether.

Anyway, back to vampires. They're everywhere right now! You literally can't go to the young adult section of a bookstore (no, I don't care that I'm 21. I love young adult fiction) without seeing a million of them. It's really, really gross. And I'm completely sick of them. I never liked them to begin with.

I had to watch Bram Stoker's Dracula in my horror film class, the one with Keanu Reeves and Sirius Black. It was probably the worst movie I've ever seen. Ok, not the worst, because I've seen much worse, including Twilight, but it was right up there. So I hate Dracula, and I will never read the book, even though it's supposed to be a classic.

I'm not just hating on Bram Stoker, though. I mean, Interview with a Vampire? Not watching it. Because I don't care about anything a vampire has to say. Blade? I watched it once. Well, I think it was Blade Trinity or Blade 3 or something ridiculous. And it was awful. I don't even think I'll watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer, even though it's supposed to be this incredible cult hit.

I don't like their fangs, I don't like their Nosferatu-style popped collars (unless Jim is mocking it on The Office), and I certainly don't like blood. Let alone drinking blood. I can't even stand seeing it come out of my own body; I don't want to watch someone suck it out of someone else's neck or drink it out of a goblet. Disgusting.
