With the hottie vampires of Twilight hitting the multiplexes this weekend, it's been hard not to think about the various other sexy vampires in the pop culture landscape. And what with various pubs running their annual "Sexiest Men Alive" lists, why not discuss the sexiest undead men? Vampires are usually depicted as very sexual creatures, what with the constant carnal cravings and intense stares and such. There's quite a number to choose from. Amid the feast, here are ten sexy vampires we can all sink our teeth into. Frank Langella I first saw this take on Dracula in one of my high school writing classes, where we discussed how the movie brought a new vision of the vampire to the cinema. Instead of a cadaverous monstrosity, Langella's Dracula was charming and seductive like a nobleman. By then, the potential sex appeal of the vampire was getting to be well-known, but even then it was clear how Langella helped moved vampires in that direction. Jonathan Frid and Ben Cross While Langhella's Dracula brought the sexy vampire to the big screen, it was Barnabas Collins who first got hearts fluttering on the camptastic soap opera Dark Shadows. Barnabas was a lonely soul, separated by the ages from his true love, a quality that resonated with fans. While Ben Cross (who played Barnabas in the 90's revival of the series) is more my type than Jonathan Frid (who created the role) we might not be talking about sexy vampires if Barnabas hadn't gotten us thinking about them as romantic creatures. Kiefer Sutherland While I was in ... uhm, the target demographic at the time, I never joined in on the Corey/Corey mania of the 80s. Instead, The Lost Boys was all about the hotness of Kiefer Sutherland's moody bad boy vampire for me. That crush seems apt considering that The Lost Boys was the movie that got me to realize that buying tickets for 'R' rated movies as a kid wasn't as hard as I expected.

Pardon my reference to the 90's nonclassic horror movie Pet Sematary, but in this week's Blood Work (much like the True Blood episode that inspired it) we learn that sometimes it's best to leave dead enough alone. Yes, much like babyvamp Jessica, Andy has returned from the grave ... with a few noticeable differences. Join us as we discuss the penultimate episode of the ever-wacky vampire series, complete with mysterious social workers, a fresh corpse, and a big reveal months in the making. Check it out after the break! Submitted by on Wed, 2008-11-19 11:55. "True Blood" (1.11) recaplet: To Love is to Bury
Sookie and Sam grow closer, Bill is a new daddy, Tara meets the freaky pig lady again (sans pig), Jason runs around in rain-soaked tighty whities ... and we learn the identity of the killer, who strikes again! It's the next-to-last episode of True Blood and you can see all the craziness after the break! Submitted by on Mon, 2008-11-17 13:29. Blood Work "True Blood" video blog Ep. 10: I go through more boyfriends that way...
Inspired by Eddie, Jason and Amy's twisted little game of "vampire house", Andy and I decided this week to tie Andy to a lawnchair to discuss Episode 10 of True Blood. Um ... it didn't go so well. In lighter news, we were delighted to learn that this week the folks at HBO have made Blood Work the featured item on the show's official fan page. We're thrilled to be spreading our foul gospel to more fans of the show, and even more thrilled at the special presents they were kind enough to send us ... which we'll be featuring next week. If you run into any new folks in the darkened hallways of the comments section, do give them a friendly AfterElton welcome! Check it out after the break! Submitted by on Thu, 2008-11-13 15:47. "True Blood" (1.10) recaplet: I Don't Wanna Know
Bill goes before The Legion of Doom, Tara tries to purge the devil inside, Jason has his hands full with Eddie, and Sookie learns why Sam is always trying to lick himself. Because he can!

In honor of a Very Big Thing happening in last Sunday's episode of True Blood, Andy and I decided to record this week's Blood Work vlog in our true form. Yes, we're cats. But tails, short attention spans and squishy-soft bellies don't get in the way of our recapping this week's wonderfully wacky episode in all its bloody glory ... check it all out, after the break! Submitted by on Thu, 2008-11-06 14:04. "True Blood" (1.09) recaplet: Plaisir D'Amour
At the end of last week's episode of True Blood, Sookie found herself on the receiving end of some unwanted vampire attention when bartender LongShadow attacked her for discovering the truth about his sticky fingers. Will Bill break the ultimate vampire code to save her? And what about Eddie, the suburban vampire kidnapped by Jason and the increasingly monstrous Amy? Will he live long enough to watch the next episode of Heroes? And does Tara really have a demon inside her or is it just PMS? And will the women who read this ever forgive me for that last line? These questions, and many others will be answered ... after the break! Submitted by on Mon, 2008-11-03 14:36. Battle of the Network Gays! for October 31st
Every Friday we pick the gays in television who have had the best weeks, and leave it to you, the keepers of the flame, to decide who will be crowned Gay of the Week and enjoy the crown and their own fancy button over on the left. We'll announce the winner on Monday, and that champ will reign until a new set of challengers are introduced the following Friday to try to steal his title. For the past week, As the World Turns' plucky gay virgin Luke Snyder has been enjoying the crown ... but today three new players arise to challenge him. Meet them and make your choice, after the break! Submitted by on Fri, 2008-10-31 11:12. |
