| Can anyone name some good vampire books/movies? Ive read books by Stephanie Meyers. I found a bunch of books on amazon.com like the Anita Blake series, Blue Bloods, Guardian of the night series, The Vampires Kiss, Immortals after Dark series..but i dont know which to look into buying or not. Also the only vampire movies ive seen are Queen of the Damned, Underworld one and two, and The Lost Boys. I also love Buffy and Blood Ties. | |||

| Elite Fan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Innocent Blood is good (kinda cheesy but good). Bram Stroker's Dracula is always nice. For a fun movie Van Helsing is there (don't expect a lot though). Christopher Moore's book "You suck" is a great book to read. Hamilton's Anita Blake is great for the first couple books, I wouldn't read much past it though, for a lot of reasons. Eep, scary scooby doo! Did anyone here ever catch Vampire High? __________________ "Be quiet brain, or I'll stab you with a Q-tip!" "Tact is for people who aren't witty enough to be sarcastic."

| I agree with what Cryostar said about Anita Blake, I'm on book 10 I think and the sex really has taken over. A pretty big shame too since I really liked the beginning books and yet I won't stop reading them until she stops writing them. It's a sad cycle. I liked the Stephanie Meyers books as well. __________________ Booey ![]() - Clark♥Lois Henry♥Vicki Booth♥Bones Lucas♥Peyton - Lois: (to Clark) Lana's your past, I'm your future. | |||

| There are several movies reviewed on this thread: Vampire Appreciation Thread #1, though you'll have to search the pages. Also, several books/series are mentioned. Which reminds me, I think I saw something that indicated You Suck! was a sequel, Cryostar. Did you read its predecessor? | |||

| The new Anita Blake books are completely awful, I loved the early ones though, Guilty Pleasures is still my favourite AB book. I didn't like Twilight either, the constant whining about undying love and destiny every over sentence really got on my nerves. I just bought the first Blood Ties book, hopefully that'll be good, I'm liking the t.v. show so far. Last edited by Suga*Babe : 04-27-2007 at 08:50 PM. | |||

| Elite Fan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Completely agree Suga. Guilty Pleasures was the best. Dukesmom, I have not read that book...I didn't even know it existed. World on Fire, they have support groups for this, you know. ![]() In other vampire news, they're making a sequel to Bram Stroker's Dracula....Monica Bellucci will play Lucy this time around. ![]() __________________ "Be quiet brain, or I'll stab you with a Q-tip!"

| I just looked it up, Bloodsucking Fiends: A Love Story was published in 2004. From the description of it and You Suck: A Love Story, they are about the same characters. Also from the descriptions of these and other books by Christopher Moore, he's got a weird sense of humor. My kind of author. ![]() | |||

| Elite Fan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I can tell you, he has a very odd sense of humor....and it's quite enjoyable. I'd recommend all his books, even the non-vampire ones if you have the chance. __________________ "Be quiet brain, or I'll stab you with a Q-tip!"
