User blog comment:ScissorLuv1/Why do people make vampire stereotypes?/@comment-3096602-20101119210920

I don't know why there can't be every kind of vampire! Why do you want only Twilight vampires or only Dracula vampires? I think that is one of the failings of our society..we don't reward creativity. There should continue to be millions of different types of vampires in the world. They all have something interesting and different to say to society. I don't know if most twihards realize this but there is a TON of subtext in most horror movies. They are comments on our society, that is why you can have a vampire like Martin in Romero's Martin who is basically a crazy kid who drinks blood (not a supernatural being) and True Blood vampires who have come "out of the coffin" and are joining normal society (which is a commentary on both the civil rights movement and homosexual rights).

As for your questions 1 and 2. Twilight vamps are not scary but there are others that I would be scared of...If everyone turned into "From Dusk Till Dawn" vamps I would be pretty freaked out. 3. I could totally love a vamp. Louie in Interview With the Vampire, Bill Compton in True Blood, Angel in Buffy, David or Michael in Lost Boys....YUM! 4. I hope that we as a society continue making every kind of film possible, to push the boundaries and come up with new takes on old ideas (or else we would not have Twilight and True Blood).
