Vampires are the new, er, vampires

Apparently it’s Vampire Movie Announcement Week.

Yesterday we had Uprising with director Travis Knight and The Bride with director Jessica M. Thompson, today a remake of The Hunger with Angela Robinson in talks to direct.

I think there’s room to do something interesting, though the cast is obviously a hard act to follow.

(And I expect we’ll get a cover of Bela Lugosi’s Dead in there somewhere. CHVRCHES already recorded one for Vampire Academy.)

Edit: And speaking of Vampire Academy, it’s getting a TV series, from the first showrunner for The Vampire Diaries, who also has a credit on its current spinoff which is set in... an academy for (among others) vampires.
