Lately vampires had no success in the public relations sector.
Besides Underworld, whose stupid plot could only be endured because Kate Beckinsale looks hot in PVC and G36-wielding leather coat types make any film somewhat nicer, stuff like Twilight, Moonlight, the nth Anne Rice novel and not forgetting Buffy the Vampire Slayer all portrayed the latenight crowd as weak touchy-feely types that are in serious need of an outreach campaign.
Naturally, we are happy to learn that Hollywood might come to our rescue after it repeatedly drove a stake into our hearts (in more than one way): iO9 has all the details about how Deacon Frost might kick the Twilight dude’s ass in a trilogy all about the man himself
“A rumor’s circulating that Deacon Frost is getting his own Blade vampire spin off. Wesley Snipes is gonna be pissed.
Completely respectable and never full of lies tabloid the Sunday Mail supposedly talked to the vampire Blade killed off, Stephen Dorff. According to them Dorff is staring in a Deacon Frost-centric prequel to Blade. Oh, and it’s a trilogy no less.
“It will be a prequel to the Blade movies, Deacon’s story. It’s a new trilogy the director has created. It will [be] cool… We hope to shoot the first film next year. Frost is a character I have never been able to shake.”
