#90 Bram Stoker's Dracula #91&92 Interview with the Vampire and Freddy Vs. Jason

Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula is all I need out of a retelling of the story. It's crazy, sexual, oh so 90s and kind of fun. Anthony Hopkins' Van Helsing is the best thing ever. This flick came out when I was in fifth grade and, since it was kind of based on classic literature, I was allowed to watch it! That made for some awful good steps forward in the development of my young, impressionable brain. Watching it still takes me back.

After that, we watched Interview with the Vampire. I've been wanting to see this flick again for a while. Man, it's kind of slow and wussy. I had forgotten. This flick, and the series of books that it is based on, are as much 'vampires for middle aged women' as Twilight is 'vampires for teenage girls'. Even though I'm not the target audience for this flick, I still think it has some good stuff in it.

Freddy Vs. Jason: We kind of just didn't want the night to end. And I didn't want IwtV to be the last movie on the list. I slept through a fair portion of the plot development in the middle and woke up for the big fight at the end.

Okay, that's it!
