that is why we are friends
and that is why it is hard for us to be friends
*******

watched "bram stoker's dracula" (92) with gary oldman, winona ryder, keanu, and antony hopkins
i no longer care if i'm spelling correctly is a lie for which i'll later pay penance.
oh, also, the man from the princess bride and the first saw movie.

so it was very obvious in its iterations and its green fog, and yes one adaptation among soooo many, but it was nice (after all the true blooding and twilighting etc) to see some version where the vamp must still be vanquished. is humanized but monster, truly. which was lost in the translation to tv of true blood particularly. love is a feeling it can get you past blood and monstrosity but love cannot overcome death.

oh the long, luxurious hair of dracul --!
