THE MOTH DIARIES Eats It's Way Toward Cannes

From the director of American Psycho, Mary Harron,

comes this new horror film entitled "The Moth Diaries". Sounds fairly proming and is likely to get snatched up at Cannes.At an excluve girls' boarding school, a xteen-year-old girl records her most intimate thoughts in a diary. The object of her growing obseson is her roommate, Lucy Blake, and Lucy's friendship with their new and disturbing classmate. Ernessa is an enigmatic, moody presence with pale skin and hypnotic eyes. Around her swirl dark rumors, suspicions, and secrets as well as a series of ominous disasters. As fear spreads through the school and Lucy isn't Lucy anymore, fantasy and reality mingle until what is true and what is dreamed bleed together into a waking nightmare that evokes with Gothic menace the anxieties, lusts, and fears of adolescence. And at the center of the diary is the question that haunts all who read it: Is Ernessa really a vampire? Or has the narrator trapped herself in the fevered world of her own imagining?

It sounded okay up until it said "Is she really a vampire..." Dammit man! Is everything about vampires, posseson and zombies nowadays? I might come off as jaded but am I the only one that is over all these types of movies and books lately? Okay maybe I still enjoy zombie films but posseson films have never even come close to the original Excorcist and vampire films have never really been scary to me. Daybreakers was pretty decent and probably the best vampire concept nce the fun blade trilogy.

I had to get that off my chest.

I agree... vampires WAAAY overdone, and Daybreakers was a new and unique concept. It will be interesting to see what they do with Del Toro/Hogan's The Strain. Only a matter of time before those come to the big screen, and I am eagerly anticipating.http://www.thestraintrilogy.com
