Some of you may be wondering why the guild has thus far been silent regarding the pop phenomena known as Twilight. Frankly I have neither read nor seen Twilight and have no intention to do either any time soon. However I do know this, EDWARD CULLEN MUST DIE! I urge you, my friends, not to be fooled. I know vampires can appear charming and sympathetic, but don’t you believe it. Don’t fall for

From the Smooth Operator website-They have been wandering the face of the Earth since the beginning of time, ready to drain your veins of blood and wipe out human civilization. Vampire Hunters have been working for years to stop them and said Wednesday that they are well on their way with a plan to stop every Vampire, whether they pose a threat or not.View the full story.

Someday, I will once again see a good vampire movie. Deep in my heart, I do believe. But that day is not today. Recently I saw both BloodRayne and Underworld: Evolution on DVD. Both sucked.Let's start with Underworld: Evolution.Those who saw Underworld: No subtitle will not be surprised to find that once again director Len Wiseman has decided to film unrelentingly through a blue filter.

You know what's a good vampire movie from the 80's? No, not Lost Boys, though that was good. What? No not Fright Night, though again, a good one. I'm talking about Vamp. I just saw it again recently and I still enjoyed it after all these years. It's a lot of fun. True there is an appallingly unlikely bit at the end involving barrels of gasoline, oh and there's also the albino stereotype. But

We finally have a new hunter of the week. This one is a zombie hunter for a a change. Her name is Kristy and she's featured int the webcomic Kristy Vs. the Zombie Army. Isn't she cute? The strip is by Kidnemo who also does the webcomic Comet 7.

In case you haven't heard, Spike TV is producing a Blade television series. Snipes declined to participate, so the new Blade is one Kirk "Sticky Fingaz" Jones (pictured at left.)Jones is a rapper and actor whose films include Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood and House of the Dead 2: Dead Aim.The Blade two hour tv movie/pilot should be airing sometime this summer.

Start with the very fey vampire Lestat. Turn his story into a musical. Get Elton John and Bernie Taupin to write the music. What do you get? Quite posible the gayest thing ever! (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)Apparently what you do not get is quality theater, according to reviewers who saw the show during it's San Francisco run. But don't worry, before the show hits Broadway on March

Bloodrayne only played at out local theater for a week, so now I'll have to wait for the dollar movie. It was replaced by Brokeback Mountain. Where I currently live is not really a big market for gay cowboy movies, so I figure Bloodrayne must have been pretty bad if the management of the theater thought Brokeback Mountain would be a bigger draw.

That's german for Flaming Crapburger.I was hoping to see it this week, but now I'm thinking I might wait for the dollar movie. Let's hope that Underworld Evolution, opening on the, 20th is better.

The following was submited by DELANO.Incredible as it may sound, during the course of their work, vampire hunters will likely encounter deluded human beings who will insist that they are undead. As satisfying as it may be to stake their pretentious asses, slaying these wannabe vampires often makes for an embarrassing coroner's report, and bad publicity for the guild. Thus, as a service to our

Ok, I know I've gotten behind on the Hunter of the Week. The simple fact is that I'm running out of hunters. Sure I could list every Buffy and Angel character one by one, but where's the fun in that? So, why don't you folks send me some suggestions? Maybe there'll be a prize if I use your suggestion.

It's available for X-Box, PC, and Mac, which means there's no way I'm going to be able to play it. I don't have an X-Box.

Cassidy Sharp was an agent of the Darkwatch, a vampire hunting organization closely related to the Guild, during the 1870’s. Sharp lost her life in a confrontation with the master vampire, Lazarus Malkoth. Yet, so devoted was Sharp to the Great Cause, that she continued to battle the undead menace after death.

Vlad is a well shot and reasonably well acted movie, unfortunately it's not very well written. Consequently, it's boring and doesn't make much sense.There's this group of four students who have come to Romania from around the world to work on their theses, all of which have something to do with Vlad Tepes a.k.a. Dracula. One of them has Vlad's necklace which will awaken the "Tormented One" if it

Strictly speaking, Ashley J. "Ash" Williams is not a hunter. That is he doesn't go hunting for trouble with the undead. Trouble finds him and just won't leave him alone. Ash bears a striking resemblance to Robert Van Helsing, so perhaps they are related and the undead's determination to get Ash has to do with a grudge against his family that he is unaware of.Whatever the reason, Ash has killed

I've just posted the Vampire Hunters' Hall of Fame page. It's very primative right now, but it will expand as more members are inducted. So far we only have two, Professor Abraham Van Helsing and Carl Kolchak: The Night Stalker.If you would like to nominate a hunter for induction, just send an e-mail to dominic@lopez.net .

The following is from the Green Ronin website."Eleven years after faking his death in Transylvania, Dracula returns to London to exact his vengeance upon Van Helsing and his friends.

The new television season starts off with what seems to me an unprecedented glut of fanciful shows, i.e. shows with either a supernatural or science fiction premise. I really miss Hercules, Xena, Buffy, and Angel. So, I ought to be thrilled, right?Here's the thing though. None of the new shows have impressed me. Most are just kind of lame.

I don’t even know where to start with this. Firstly, this is not a sequel to Drac…No, firstly, do not watch this movie under any circumstances, ever, seriously, not even if you were in it.Secondly, this is not a sequel to Dracula 2000, which was itself a pretty bad movie, but looks like genius next to this. Dracula: The Series looks like genius next to this. That Halloween special I saw as a kid

Deuce is one of the hunters whose adventures are chronicled in the Hunter: the Reckoning series of video games.At the age of 14 Spencer killed his mother’s murderer, Cornelius Booth, and fled the town of Ashcroft. Returning years later at the head of a motorcycle gang, Spencer (now called Deuce) discovered that his mother’s murderer was apparently still alive. Following Cornelius to Ashcroft

According to the Internet Movie Database there are four movies entitled “Dead Meat.” The one I’m reviewing is the 2004 Irish zombie movie. That’s right, Irish. As far as I know this is the first and only zombie movie set in Ireland and apparently the first wholly Irish horror movie, it then seems a little odd that the leading lady is Spanish (the lovely Marian Araujo as Helena) but she does a

I was finally able to play Darkwatch for PS2, so here at last is my review. In the interest of full disclosure I must say that I was on the Darkwatch online "street team" and I received a t-shirt for my efforts.“Welcome to the Wild West, circa 1876.” Darkwatch is a first person shooter in which, “You are Jericho Cross, seasoned outlaw.” You are also kind of a dumb-ass, because while attempting to

The Brothers Grimm chronicles an adventure of the folklorists and monster hunters Wilhelm (Matt Damon) and Jacob Grimm (Heath Ledger.) Though they do not encounter vampires, they do confront supernatural foes including a witch and a lycanthrope of a sort. The film also suggests how their encounters with the supernatural may have inspired their fairy tales. Indeed, armed with this knowledge, a

How to describe Mallory? Let’s see, start with Buffy. Then imagine that she’s a little bit older, watches too much anime, and is French. That should give you a pretty good picture of the eponymous lead from Bloody Mallory, an odd little piece of fromage from France.In the “making of” feature included on the DVD, director Julien Magnat uses the term “manga” more than once.

That's right. Blade was using the title "Vampire Slayer" long before Miss Summers came along. Is he a dhampire, the "Daywalker," or just a guy who's imune to vampire bites? It depends on what version of Blade you're talking about.Blade first apeared in Marvel Comics' Tomb of Dracula #10.Like many comic book characters, Blade has changed over the years, and like all comic book characters to make

It's Thursday again already and that means it's time for a new Hunter of the Week. Today we have Saya from Blood: the Last Vampire. Saya is the afore mentioned "Last Vampire." Which is a little confusing because she fights things throughout the move that seem to be vampires. I think Saya is the last "true" vampire and these other things are hybrids or something.

Welcome, Mike, to the guild.

I'm fatigued with the vampire genre as of late. It's becoming increasingly difficult to determine whether you're watching a horror movie or a perfume ad. Where is the Boo factor? Hell, where has the cleverness gone. Can you think of a recent vamp flick that wasn't style over substance? The most recent one I can think of was 1987's Near Dark and I don't even think the word vampire was even

BLOODSUCKERSIt's not even over yet, but I can tell you that Bloodsuckers is the sort of mediocre crap that one has come to expect from a "SciFi Channel Original Presentation." Vampire hunters in space may sound like fun, but it's just a lot of unpleasant people doing unpleasant things. Ok, they just quoted The Princess Bride, but that's not enough to save the movie. The story, script, and acting

I haven't had the chance to play this game, but by all accounts it's lots of fun. I hope to get it soon. Anyone out there have it? What do you think?

This fall we can look forward to a remake of "the show that started it all," as the marketing types like to say. Night Stalker will be on ABC Thursday nights. I'm not sure which of the above guys is the new Kolchack. Aparently the original stalker, Darren McGavin has been digitally inserted into the pilot as a tribute.

Bloodsuckers premiers in a few minutes on the SciFi channel. I'll let you know what I think when it's over.

So, I now I've seen Constantine. It wasn't as bad as I feared, but it's got some problems. The biggest problem as always is Keanu Reeves. I've only read a few issues of Hellblazer, the comic Constantine is based on, so I don't know how accurate the movie is to the comic. However, I am aware of one major departure from the comic, Constantine's nationality. This of course is due to Keanu's complete

I saw Cursed a few weeks ago. It was fun. If you like werewolf movies or Christina Ricci then check it out.If you REALLY like werewolf movies then I recommend any and all of the Ginger Snaps films.

The SciFi channel is having a frelling Ghost Hunters season one marathon. Despite the pretense of this blog, I'd like to take a moment to say- THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS GHOSTS! Sadly the SciFi channel long ago decided it had no time for science and precious little time for science fiction. Like Crossing Over before it Ghost Hunters is nothing but fiction mixed with delusion. SciFi, SF, Skiffi, or

Constantine is out on DVD. Did anyone see this? Is it any good? Thoughts please.
