"When I Got High..."


God, I wish more movie directors were obviously high and injecting heroin mid-scene as Coppola must've been while making this movie. It'd certainly make some movies more interesting.

Love Song For a [Sexy] Vampire

This is part of the Vampire blog-a-thon. Created and monitored by that undead soul that is Nathaniel over at The Film Experience



Vampires: I don't really like them outside of Buffy and a couple of movies. But there's one issue about them that always piques my interest. Hot people! Sexy or Not. That's the constant debate when it comes to vampires and vampire movies. In some movies they are horrible disgusting creatures that want to suck your blood in the most unsavoury of manners. And then there are those movies that feature vampires that want to suck your blood in the most unsavoury of manners, but who are also hotter than a vampire at midday in summer. So I thought for my entry into the Vampire blog-a-thon that I would count down the five sexiest vampires. The ones that you would have a difficult task of actually running away from.

**Please note, Brad Pitt does not appear on hear. I don't particularly care for him in general, let alone in Interview with the Actor where he was about a sexy as a barbequed rat**


5. Kate Beckinsale as "Selene" in Underworld


Fact. I sorta hate Kate Beckinsale. I just really dislike her. I don't get her purpose in the world. And then to go on and say that Underworld is quite possibly the worst horror movie I've ever seen at the cinema, it must be confusing as to why she's on here. I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. I'm sure that if I were a hetersexual 16-year-old male, the sight of Kate running around in way-too-tight-for-an-action-movie vinyl suit would probably be the equivelent of the moon landing in terms of viewer gawking. Even I admit that she was the best looking thing in the movie (Scott Speedman unfortunately played a strung out werewolf).

4. Gerard Butler as "Dracula" and Jeri Ryan, Jennifer Esposity & Colleen Fitzpatrick as Dracula's brides in Dracula 2000


The movie was a dud, but the window dressing sure was fine. Dracula's a lucky man and I think we all know that Gerard Butler is a sexy bitch. I'd let Gerard attack my neck any time he liked.

3. Stephen Dorff as "Deacon Frost" in Blade


Okay, so there's one scene in Blade that has Dorff's character of Deacon being quite naked. Well, shirtless at least, but I think there was more nekkidness. Either way, there's is plenty of evidence out there that he looks damn fine without a shirt on. It helps that Blade was better than a lot of other movies in this vein. I mean, Stephen Dorff ain't no class actor. I highly doubt he'll ever win an Oscar, but if he's willing to remove clothes in as many movies as possible, then his career will be long and prosperous.

2. David Boreanaz as "Angel" in Buffy the Vampire Slayer


Okay, so I'm cheating by including the television serious, but not only was Angel a hottie (Buffy's only good catch on the series) but he was a major S.N.A.G. I mean, sure, he's a vampire so he can't go out in the daylight, and sure, when Angel and Buffy had sex that one time he turned into an evil vampire again, but for a while there he was really nice! I mean, he did have a soul afterall. David's become a bit too creepy these days (he's nearly 40. time he started to look his age), but back in the heady days of '97 and '98 he was major spunk material.

1. Salma Hayek as "Santanico Pandemonium" in From Dusk Till Dawn
Salma. Bikini. Albino Python. Fangs. One of my favourite vampire movies. That is all.

Blog-a-Thon

No, I'm not hosting a blog-a-thon, but I just thought I'd remind people of some of the upcoming blog-a-thons that are happening throughout the blogosphere (and that I am participating in). Wow, that's a lot of "blog"!

Nat at the Film Experience has his Vampire blog-a-thon on October 30 (that's next Monday, folks). I'm still not sure what I'll discuss because I realised recently that I'm that well versed on vampires (we're excluding the Buffy tv program.) Oh well, I'll come up with something.

The Film Vituperatum's Alfred Hitchcock blog-a-thon is on November 15. Quite opposite to the vampire one, I have nearly too much to blog about on this subject.

Lastly (but certainly not least), Stinky Lulu's Supporting Actress blog-a-thon is still a goer, but now (well, now as of a month ago) on January 7. I'm fairly certain who I'm gonna be discussing. I need to watch the movie again though so she's fresh in my mind. Plus, nobody else will be talking about my lady (or, I can't imagine them doing so).
