Yeah. Sigh. I know my first crush well. It was in the movie theatre, you know, the "big screen" back in the early 1980s. His name was Dracula, and it aired several years before I actually saw it because it came out when I was only seven years old, 1979. I must have been around 10 years old when I saw him.
Before HIM, Dracula was just a scary monster like the rest of them. There was nothing appealing at all...he was just scary. But then, he came unto the scene, Frank Langella, filling up the screen and my heart.
That's what started me into the realm of fangs. Heh. Heh.
There were other vampires since Frank Langella, but they just didn't do it for me like he did. I mean, Angel and Buffy.... I liked their romantic relationship, but I just wasn't glued to the fangs, you know? The film Dracula (1992) came out, and though the sizzling in the scenes were there, Gary Oldman just wasn't for me. I must say, though, that there was a biting scene in Blade (1998) that was THE BEST account of "sizzling teeth on neck" that I've EVER seen. The way Blade bit into that doctor's neck...Ooo la la! SMOKIN'!!!!
Yet, Blade wasn't the stuff that I wanted in romance with a Vampire. You know? And the TV series Vampire Diaries (2009 -now)...just not for me.
I had been kind of bummed that I couldn't find that crush feeling again. Frank Langella just had me, and even at age 70, when he was in the film The Box (2009), even with half his face gone and burned up, his poise just makes me salivate, and I remember that Vampire I love.
Over and over, I see these vampires come and go, and still, no spark. I started watching TV Series True Blood, and, again, though I loved the relationship between Sookie and Bill, there just wasn't a vampire there for me.
Until... Season 2 (2009), and a vampire started coming strong into the scene --- Eric Northman!!!!
OH YEAH!!
The harps started playing in the sky! The earth started rockin' and rollin'! Sparks and fire popped in the air!
There's my FANGS!!! There HE is!!!
And all was well again in the world!
LOL!!
So...the only thing now is to wait for my sizzling werewolf. :)
Until Next time!
