I'd seen 'Interview with A Vampire' and saw Dracula movies growing up, but I never thought, 'I love vampires; I have to do a show about vampires.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've seen little pieces of 'Interview with a Vampire' when it was on TV, but I kind of always go yuck! I don't watch R-rated movies, so that really cuts down on a lot of the horror.
'Interview with a Vampire' made vampires sexy.
I'm not a vampire movie fan, per se. That's not to say that I haven't enjoyed movies with vampires in them.
I'm 48, and I have been in love with vampires since I was six. I was born in 1962, so I've been through three or four waves of vampires. When I was growing up, we had vampire shows and movies. We were still dealing with Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff and the old Christopher Lee vampires.
When I was working on 'Vampires Suck,' I must have watched 'Twilight' and 'New Moon' literally almost every day.
I've loved vampires for a very long time. In eighth grade, I guess, my research paper was on vampires.
I like vampires.
I've always thought vampires were interesting because they live forever, they're always well-financed, they dress well, you know what I mean? And they're, like, cool. Usually vampire - you've never seen a broke vampire. Have you?
Vampires used to be like Dracula, and now they're young teenage kids, so yeah, I like that.
The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.
