He was able to come up with this frothy concoction because the idea of celibate vampires is ridiculous. “To me, vampires are sex,” he says. “I don’t get a vampire story about abstinence. I’m 53. I don’t care about high school students. I find them irritating and uninformed.” On his show, every available orifice is used for intercourse: gay, straight, between humans and supernatural beings, and supernatural being on supernatural being, whether he be werewolf, dog or an enormous Minotaur-looking being called a maenad. None of the sex is quite as good as vampire sex, though, which can happen at the astonishing rhythm of 120 bpm while simultaneously devouring one’s neck and making your eyes roll back into your head. Says Moyer, “If we go from a base level, vampires create a hole in the neck where there wasn’t one before. It’s a de-virginization—breaking the hymen, creating blood and then drinking the virginal blood. … [Read more...] about The Joy of Vampire Sex: The Schlocky, Sensual Secrets Behind the Success of ‘True Blood’

I think it had a lot to do with a history of misunderstanding of death and what happens with decomposition and also the signs of death. Back in the 18th and 19th centuries, they didn’t have a lot of definite experiments that would tell you for sure, “this person is dead,” and I imagine there were probably plenty of accidental burials where people woke up and they had been buried. So they would find scratch marks on the insides of coffins and assumed that this was reanimation, that people were coming back to life, and they didn’t know about decomposition. But the fact is that during decomposition, when there were gases in the body, the body bloats up, and the skin decomposes faster than the nails or the teeth. The skin recedes, which makes the nails look longer, makes the teeth look longer, makes the hair look longer. At the same time, as the inside juices liquefy, they come pouring out of the lips and the nostrils in a red juice, so when you open a casket after … [Read more...] about Secrets of a Baby Vampire

The New Mutants One might wonder what could be special about a film that had 5 (yes, 5) release dates. Initially, this saga of 5 mutants in the X-Men universe who are net yet adults, had its release postponed for reshoots and then our present situation. Eventually, it came out in the fall of 2020 and was skewered fairly hard by just about everyone. However, there's always a bright spot in movies like this and one of them is Anya Taylor-Joy's depiction of Illyana Rasputin aka Magik. With powers of sorcery and teleportation, Taylor-Joy gives a layered performance in a movie that could be seen as little more than a superhero action flick. With her shimmering blonde locks, the actress straddles the fence between presenting evil but having a strong core of goodness. There are other standouts in this cast as well (Stranger Things Charlie Heaton being one of them), but what The New Mutants might ultimately be remembered for is showcasing this stand-out performance from Taylor-Joy before … [Read more...] about Must-See Anya Taylor-Joy Movies and Shows That Aren’t The Queen’s Gambit
