Twilight

I have always had a fascination for vampires. They are always very, very good looking, immortal and despite their cool skin, very hot. I don't really know when I started to be fascinated, or what brought it on, but suddenly I crave them. Everything about them. Could they be real? Is there vampires walking among us? Probably not, but it is a bewildering thought, nonetheless.

I know that people talked about Interview with a vampire quite early, well, I was 14 when it came. But I didn't see it till later. I don't know if it was my fear of the dark and unknown that kept me away from it for a while. It is a great movie which I haven't seen for a while actually, I believe it is time to see it soon. But I did enjoy Dracula before that.

Now the vampires are very popular again. Twilight, True Blood and The Vampire Diaries have seen to that. I really wasn't that impressed with Twilight the movie. It was too slow for my taste, sure there were vampires, but I really didn't see why everyone fell in love with Robert Pattinson as Edward. I really don't find Robert that attractive. After reading the book, however, I can see the fascination for Edward. The novel is so much better. So, I'm hooked. Am going to see New Moon as soon as possible. I already have a date too. :P Perhaps I will change my mind about Pattinson as Edward.

Maybe just the fact that he is portraying a vampire does the trick. ;) It is possible. But I do think the books is much better than the movie anyway. So much get lost in the adaptation. Very few adaptations can do the original justice, in my opinion.
