I just started watching a new HBO series by the creator of "Six Feet Under" (never seen that one) called "True Blood". It stars Rogue from the X-Men franchise, and there are also a lot of other familiar TV-faces, and it's about (guess) vampires!
Well, to say the truth, it's not the best series out there, but if you're into vampire films you should check this one out. It "borrows" a LOT of elements from the way Anne Rice and the "Vampire" RPG's portray vampires, and the plot is simple. The Japs create a form of synthetic blood, and vampires come out publicly to coexist with mankind.
The interesting stuff is that it doesn't show the large proportions of the subject, but takes place entirely on a southern american village. I've watched the first 6 episodes (I think only 7 or 8 are out there), as the series just started this year on HBO. It seems good so far, I hope they can keep it up. Don't expect "Interview..." though, not even close...

"Stood in firelight, sweltering. Bloodstain on chest like map of violent new continent. Felt cleansed. Felt dark planet turn under my feet and knew what cats know that makes them scream like babies in night. Looked at sky through smoke heavy with human fat and God was not there. The cold, suffocating dark goes on forever and we are alone. Live our lives, lacking anything better to do. Devise reason later. Born from oblivion; bear children, hell-bound as ourselves, go into oblivion. There is nothing else. Existence is random. Has no pattern save what we imagine after staring at it for too long. No meaning save what we choose to impose. This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not fate that butchers them or destiny that feeds them to the dogs. It’s us. Only us. Streets stank of fire. The void breathed hard on my heart, turning it's illusions to ice, shattering them. Was reborn then, free to scrawl own design on this morally blank world. Was Rorschach. Does that answer your questions, Doctor?"

"Yeah. Yeah, that's right. Pregnant woman. Gunned her down. Bang. And y'know what? You watched me. You coulda changed the gun into steam or the bullets into mercury or the bottle into snowflakes! You coulda teleported either of us to goddamn Australia...but you didn't lift a finger! You don't really give a damn about human beings. I've watched you. You never cared about whatsername, Janey Slater, even before you ditched her. Soon you won't be interested in Sally Jupiter's little girl, either. You're driftin' outta touch, Doc. You're turnin' into a flake. God help us all."
