For all those fans of that romantic issue involving blood, a misterious and handsome gentleman and a defendless virgin girl, there goes a nomination: True Blood!
I've got to admit, I was kind of skeptical when it comes to movies and series related to vampires, considering myself the biggest fan of Interview with the Vampire though (1994 movie, starring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt), filled with an epical and old-fashioned French environment, sorrounded by a "living the life to the fullest" lifestyle, in which the only concern is related to not being drunk, well-fed or having your sexual needs satisfied...like the Greek good old days.
Back to these days, True Blood was released in 2008 bursting throughout the world in the months that were to come.
What may get you dazzled about this series is how it's quite updated, or at least the way it deals with updated issues such as drugs addiction, segregation and the influence of traditionalist beliefs on people's behaviour, I mean, it points out plenty of others much more controversial and serious subjects to be dealt with that the fact of coexisting with vampires doesn't seem to be a motive for concerning whatsoever, it's almost like you not feeding someone in need because the way they may look like or because you just think it's too hot to step out your door. Anyway, that's my tip, even for those who don't think of themselves as these kind of series bystanders, I dare you spending sometime watching it...you might get yourself surprised. Well, allow me to post a like-poem text on this issue:
"What fascinates me is your not-quite explained death and your struggle to keep it that way
Your so-called hazardous kiss has never frighted me,
because I am aware that there is a reason for the spilled blood
Your brightening eyes fascinate me not too long before you spot who seduces you
And your outrageous fears are what indeed fascinate me: the stick, the garlic, the fire, the sun, the cross
Your strenght fascinates me although it doesn't make you able to stand up to a fragile dawn
And your cap of an immaculate darkness, does fascinate me
And your cap of an immaculate darkness, does fascinate me
As your scary fangs as your centuries of horror and legends fascinate as well
But I must confess what fascinates me most is the nobleness of your name: Sir Dracula."
But I must confess what fascinates me most is the nobleness of your name: Sir Dracula."
