Before vampires were aesthetically appealing, they were physical anomalies and ostracized outsiders whom we banished to the dark, and they didn't have the appeal that they do now.
I've always had a fascination with vampires. It's not that I'm exactly fascinated with the dark side. It's the human struggle with it. How we deal with those two aspects of who we are. We all have those elements.
I have always been into the darker side of things and love the mystery and sexiness of vampires.
It's almost as if we each have a vampire inside us. Controlling that beast, that dark side, is what fascinates me.
There is a certain swagger with vampires.
Vampires to me have always been very sexy.
I think vampires would want to find a way to stay attached to the living, the way human beings do, and that is through love, interrelations and meaning.
There were no vampires of note in Western literature until about the 18th century. But they tell us where we park our anxieties, whether its over-powerful women, death or damnation. We make our own monsters.
Vampires are so sexy and powerful - they're so otherworldly; they have eternal life and youth.
It's easy to look at the vampires as a metaphor for any feared or misunderstood group. It's also easy to look at them as a metaphor for a shadow organization that says one thing and has a completely different agenda on their mind, and anybody who gets in their way, they just get rid of them. Does that sound familiar?
