The Vampire's Assistant

Twilight destroyed vampires for me. But I came across this link on aol and after I watched the trailer, there came a tiny glimmer of hope that vampires (for me,anyway) are kind of cool again.

Cheesy, yes, but it may still be enjoyable. What do you think?

I've been hoping to hear more about this for a while. If it's like the books it's based on, it should be good.

Originally, they were just calling it "Cirque Du Freak"...guess they decided to call it "The Vampire's Assistant" after the second book instead

Have you checked out True Blood? The show is great and the books are even better.

True Blood is like twilight but with actual vampires and tits you get to see. And blood. Lots of blood. It's awesome.

True Blood is nothing like Twilight. For one it's WAAY better than Twilight and there's no teen angst.

I saw the trailer for Vampire's Assistant at the theatre today. Looks pretty good but what's up with that weird creature that looks like Golem??

Young, inexperienced, somewhat shy girl from a small town where everybody knows each other falls in love with a vampire. Evil vampires show up and good vampire protects human girl. Other hijinks ensue.

Now, can you clarify with series I just described? They're extremely similar. True Blood is more or less just Twilight for people over the age of 17. That and it's actually, y'know, pretty good.
