True Blood-TV Series

Posted by Ms Harker | Filed under Horror TV

With the ever growing global epidemic of VMD (Vampire Moistness Disorder) in females above the age of 15, it is with trepidation I am posting about the HBO series True Blood. The plethora of vamp inspired TV, books and movies recently has made a new generation of females contract VMD, and unfortunately their sacrifice in suffering from this disorder has not always been due to quality Vamp Vision.

However, True Blood the TV series is quality. The makers of this gritty gothic sojourn come with dark credentials, having also created the series Six Feet Under. True Blood is inspired by the Southern Vampire Series created by Charlaine Harris.  True Blood makes you clutch your pearls from the opening credits which are a montage of grainy, sexy and decomposing images, setting the scene for things to come.

The series main character is Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) a barmaid/telepath, living in the deep south of America, in a community Bon Temps, which is struggling to come to terms with the recent ‘coming out’ of vampires as legally recognised citizens. A new resident moves into Bon Temps: Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer), the first vampire to set up house in the area. What ensues is a murder mystery, complicated by fangbangers (VMD sufferers!!), bigotry, shape shifters and some steamy scenes featuring tie me up tie me down, hallucinogens, cemetery mud and bath time action. Phew someone fetch me my smelling salts!

Highly recommended viewing,

Ms Harker.

    Sounds kinda cool. I’ll have to look into this one. I liked Six Feet Under so I’m sure this will be good as well.

    I’m a big fan, can’t wait for the next season… I’m also a big fan of Dollhouse, not strictly horror, the concept is more freaky sci-fi, made by Joss Whedon (Buffy) you should check it out.
