My vampires need to be MONSTERS, not goddamn prettyboys!

I love vampires.

Let me be more specific, I love REAL vampires. The horrific, monstrous vampires intended to scare the shit out of you, not those sparkly, I-fall-in-love-with-my-food-because-it-appeals-to-teenage-girls vampires that Twilight introduced us all to. Yuck.

I love creepy, pale, bald, pointy-eared nosferatu vamps.

                                                           Like this guy.


                           
                                               or this guy.


So, of course, I'm a huge fan of The Strain, which is now in season 2 on FX.  If you have been living under a rock, and don't know what the show is or is about, just fucking watch it. You will not be disappointed. The vampires in this show are MONSTROUS, as they should be. They ruthlessly murder, suck dry, and turn humans at an alarming rate, and basically start the apocalypse. Yep, no "daylight rings", no "sparkly skin", no emo "I don't wanna be a vampire, cuz it gives me moral dilemmas every time I get hungry" shit. Nope, just good old monster action.

So, in summation, I still don't have much faith left in humanity, but at least TV vamps are improving, cuz, c'mon, who's scared of
                                           THIS guy?
