    Cloe Moretz talks vampires and "Let me in "


    Let Me In is a Hollywood remake of the Swedish vampire film Let the Right One In (2008), with Moretz cast as Abby, an ages-old vampire who befriends a lonely, bullied boy (Kodi Smit-McPhee).

    "It was really fun to play Abby," Moretz says, "because she's such a unique vampire. She's the kind of vampire that nowadays you don't really see. Interview with the Vampire and movies like that, they glamorised the vampires. But in Let Me In in playing Abby, I made it a lot rougher. It's not glamorous. It's not a cool thing to be a vampire."

    Stephen Moyer Says "I'm a Venice-zuelan."

    There are social networks for meeting people, and then there are TV networks – and Stephen Moyer credits the latter with hooking him up with his fiancée, True Blood costar Anna Paquin.

    "It's HBO's fault," the British actor, 40, tells Details in its May issue. "They put us in the same hotel" – though in not the same room, at least "not to begin with," he adds.

    "No, I'm joking. They put us in these hotel suites, and we hung out for a while and got to know each other. The attraction was there, so it was a matter of whether we acted on it or not.

    How to Catch and Keep a Vampire by Diana Laurence

    Who needs a book on dating a vampire?

    Well, Bella Swan and Sookie Stackhouse to name just two. They are fortunate to have vampire boyfriends. But what the heroines of Twilight and True Blood don’t have and could use is some advice on getting along with them. Everything they and every other red-blooded American girl (and guy) wants to know about finding a dreamy blood-drinker and keeping him is within How to Catch and Keep a Vampire: A Step-by-Step Guide to Loving The Bad and the Beautiful. And who better to introduce mortal readers to the world of dating a 21st century vampire than a few mouth-watering immortals? The cast includes: Ethan, with his aquamarine eyes and supernaturally seductive piano playing. Mordred, classically cruel, dark, and handsome, with a thing for black leather gloves. His entrancingly cute carrot-topped friend Adam, as sweet as Mordred is scary. Gunnar, with his rich, golden hair, and dastardly but delightful knack for getting his way. The experienced and fascinating Colin, with his exquisite latte-colored skin and exotic beauty. The eccentric but gorgeous Aidan, purveyor of ancient magic. And enigmatic Conner, with his deep, dark eyes and protective soul. These undead charmers will win the hearts and minds of readers everywhere, and author Diana Laurence will be their expert guide.

    True Blood Recipe : Strawberry Gazpacho

    Will you let me seduce you with... True Blood? No need to be a vampire, no need to be pale and with night preferences. Just follow my rules here and you will have the fuel you need to live... forever... or maybe not ;D.
    Now that there's such a renewed interest for Vampires... I must addmit I have some kind of weakness with the idea of immortality, sun alergy and blood drinking! Let's imagine we had the chance to choose... would you take that path? I wonder if I would... well, maybe if Bill Compton was the one...

    The only problem Vampires have is that they don't eat!!! What kind of foodie would I be if I chose to be one of them? That's why this red potion is neither a True Blood beverage nor a Bloody Mary... it's only a harmless Strawberry Gazpacho!


    Ingredients for 4 servings: 500 grs. of ripe strawberries, 1 garlic clove, 1 ripe tomatoe, 100 ml of extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar, 6 fresh basil leaves, water and salt.

    Read on here
    Eat well and remember to close your bedroom windows at night... one never knows!

    Christopher Moore's vampire spoofs a welcome respite

    Before sinking molars into Bite Me: A Love Story, a skill-testing question from author Christopher Moore is in order:

    The Countess Abigail Von Normal is: a) Emergency Backup Mistress of the Bay Area Dark; b) A Gothic hottie consumed by the banal hopelessness of existence; c) Not perky, but dark, complex and très mysterious; d) All the above, and possibly more.

    And, of course, the correct response would be d).

    Abby Normal, as our heroine refers to herself, is indeed much more. Abby, in the midst of breaking in red-vinyl Shankenstein platform boots, and her love-monkey, Foo-Dog, are all that stand in the way of a vampire cat called Chet who seeks to immerse swinging San Francisco into a blood orgy. Also in the mix are the adorable vampire love-unit of Jody, formerly in the insurance biz, and Tommy, a onetime Safeway stockboy with dreams of becoming a writer.

    Bite Me: a Love Story is the third and apparently last in the series of Moore's vampire spoofs that began with Bloodsucking Fiends: a Love Story (1995) and You Suck: a Love Story (2007). Again, Moore proves he has few rivals on the humour-opus front with this high-larious romp that just might have driven the final nail into old Nosferatu's coffin.
