Hello Gabriela! Very good video! Have you seen the movie "John Carpenter Vampires"? I think vampires should be like in that movie. Those vampires are not romantic, they are evil. They are very pale, and have very sharp fangs. They don't sleep in lined coffins, they sleep underground. And something very important: they are not bats, they are corpses. Furthermore, the vampires in this movie are dirty, they smell bad (they smell like death), and above all they have bad breath (their breath is warm and literally smells like sh*t). And try putting a string of garlic around your neck: they will bite you and s*ck the blood of your neck while eating the garlic and breathing their foul breath in your face. This movie is based in the book "Vampire$" from John Steakley. What is your opinion about these vampires? Thank you!
I have never heard of that movie but it sounds amazing! Thanks so much for taking the time to share. I honestly love the concept - I like a lot of books where vampires are the love interests but my absolute favorites are when they're actually evil and animalistic. I like it when they're bloody and brutal. That's what makes it interesting - sometimes if they're too put together they remind me more of Fae or other creatures. So I will deffo try the movie out! I think you might enjoy The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires as that's the more brutal version of them (or Vampires of El Norte are have that animalistic brutality). Something I love about vampires is how many ways there are to do the trope and how authors can play around with it and match it the themes they want to convey. Thanks again!
I am obsessed with Carmilla! I read it last week and I can’t get enough of its film adapatations and book retellings!!
Omg I gotta watch the film adaptation! I didn't know there was one!!!
