Actually the idea of a vampire in a spaceship is at least as old as the 1970's version of buck Rogers. There was an episode where B.R. encounters a vampire type being and manages to destroy him using a space ship and the stargate type thing (it was 3 or 4 stars somehow linked together to make a connecting corridor through space or something)they used in the series for some long distance space travel. I imagine there might have been others both in literature and cinema before that though. There is very little that is really new out there. Just a new twist on the same ideas.

That's apparently all it takes at the moment.
(Actually, that's been done. And I hear it's better than I make it sound. BTW, more power to you if it's your bag, but I just do not get this current vampire/romance thing. Did this really start with Twilight, or has pent-up demand been building since Buffy?) |
