True Blood Convention coming to Oz!

Greetings and Salutations.

Some titillating news for all you fangbangers in the land down under, the True Blood Convention is coming to our wide brown land! I spotted the news via the Vampire News blog, a good source for all things fanged.

The article by Gabrielle Faust details that the convention will be coming to both Sydney and Melbourne, on the 25th ad 26th of September respectively. Tickets range from $100 dollars for a day pass and $950 for a Platinum pass which gets you a breakfast and evening with the guests (so you may be able to rub up against Alexander Skarsgard for real not on your pillow), seats in the first two rows for panels etc, priority queuing for photo’ and autographs and a professional photo with the guests. Visit here for ticketing and more details.

With that fangtastic news I’m sure you are all reaching for your fans and smelling salts, so now to bring you back down to earth so you can achieve something with your day.

Speaking of rubbing on pillows; for those who have not seen it already here is the perfect present to get any pre-pubescent Twilight fan: a life sized Edward Cullen pillow… Now if they made Eric pillows that would be Ok wouldn’t it?

Brad as Vlad? Lets get the gossip straight shall we…

Greetings and Salutations.

Whilst creeping about the net I came across the shock statement that Brad Pitt is to star in a remake of the Dracula tale entitled ‘Vlad the Impaler’. As my mind went into a tale spin, cringing at the potential butchering of the Prince of Darkness I did some further research.

According to Shock Til You Drop Pitt is in talks to PRODUCE the project with film company Summit (responsible for Twilight eek!), the script has been penned by actor Charlie Hunman. Some of you may know Hunman, who plays the character Jax Teller on the fabulous TV show ‘Sons of Anarchy‘.  It appears Hunman is more than a nicely crafted arse on a Harley; now if he was to get his vamp on I would be more excited about this film!

The film is to focus on the earlier life of Vlad when he was a young prince, a  piece which Summit hopes will be a “visually edgy and radical period movie that also will break a new talent.” I’m guessing unless you have a lot of heads on spikes your not going to win any fangbangers with this one.

Daybreakers, Tv Spot… I’m peaking too early!

Greetings and Salutations.

People of the web, I need an intervention, something to help me… I’m like a horror whore who has lost her crack. I cruise the web, Amazon and the likes, chat rooms grooming would be enablers in my quest. My desperation was such I even watched New Moon! I need some Vampire action!

There is nothing currently in books or moving picture that can quench my thirst for the fang, help!

I am concerned that my current withdrawal state has me peaking too early and potentially getting a little over excited about the pending release for the Aussie made Vampire flick Daybreakers. I am a fangbanger with nothing to rub against, no cool Eric Northman flesh to break my Nosferatu fever. So with each trickle of info; like warm blood down the nape of my neck, I spring to my lap top to watch the next Daybreakers trailer or TV spot…

Don’t get me wrong I can still muster some semblance of objectivity, I still have concerns about Ethan Hawke mooching about, however the Vampire action is amping up…  and so am I, roll on January!

P.S Thanks to Fearnet for the trailer.

P.P.S If you are experiencing similar issues in your pang for the fang, please scroll down for a delightful picture of above mentioned Eric Northman, consider it an early Christmas treat!
