With all the drawling southern man candy and sullen Edward Cullens on our TV screens it's no wonder that garlic shares have gone down. None of this creepy old-school 'I-vant-to-suck-your-blood' business. People want to date vampires now. Dr Saige Walton, along with other local vampire luminaries, will be discussing this and further issues raised by the portrayal of our fanged friends in contemporary film and television.

Description:
The great thing about Fringe Festival is that it allows people to be ‘themselves'. No matter how surreal ‘themselves' might be. What's that? You're a ‘horror clown' with 'glowing thumbs, satanic possessed lantern, vampiric tendencies' and a powerful lust for 'strip tease acrobatics'? Right this way Mr Vladimir The Crow, the audience is waiting.

Let The Right One In
Scripted by John Ajvide Lindqvist from his novel, Tomas Alfredson's Let The Right One In is a subtly poignant vampire story that's all the more masterful when juxtaposed with patronising crap like Twilight. Set in a grim Swedish winter, it's gorgeously, disturbingly shot in snow and shadow, as if Bill Henson were the cinematographer on Edward Scissorhands.
