So I decided to update my pop culture knowledge and started watching films and shows circa '98 to 2025 and my focus is on Vampires. what films or shows 1) made you cringe (or laugh with embarrassment), 2) made a good impression or 3) came too close to breaching the masquerade for your tastes
So Lizzie's been catching me up on modern vampire films that I've missed during my unfortunate torpor. Unfortunately I watched the first Twilight movie and although I laughed my ass off, I felt really embarrassed for any Sire whose childe thinks this movie (and apparently there are two more) represents our "culture".
I thought the recent iteration of Nosferatu was actually pretty good (I saw the original with Max Schreck back in the late 20s) yeah I get the name can be offensive to some. It also reminded me a bit too much of my current circumstances
And I swear I thought the first episode of "What We Do In The Shadows" was a breach of the masquerade. I get it now but I swear I've known licks like that. And as a side note back in the night I thought 'Blade' nailed our "culture" a little too well. (I also consider Deacon Frost the real hero of that movie)
So thoughts?
