There have been some pretty strange reboot ideas floating around TV land of late, but this one just takes the cake: Warner Brothers and Atlas Entertainment are firming up plans to give ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ a 21st century update – without auteur Joss Whedon. Wait … what?!
Top 5 Abstinent Vampires: No. 5 — Angel and Edward Cullen (Tie)
by Tracy V. Wilson | October 26, 2009
When I was in elementary school, after years of trick-or-treating in a Wicked Witch of the West costume, I decided to be a vampire for Halloween. With the very silly exceptions of Bunnicula and Grandpa and Lily Munster, vampires were monsters back then, and monsters were what Halloween was for. I ran around in a cape, plastic fangs and a drawn-on widow’s peak, hollering, “I van to suck your blood.” Because that’s what vampires do.
Rather, that’s what vampires did. Now it seems like the average vampire has, for one reason or another, decided to abstain from drinking blood. Monsters are still what Halloween is for, though, so I’m going to spend this week looking at these abstinent vampires (and whether they’re still at all monstrous).
