I think we can all agree this is awesome and completely true.

Hilarious webcomics on the matter aside, I just think the big vampire craze is just the latest in the Hollywood Undead Cycle that I've noticed. In 1999, The Mummy series started out and was sort of "the thing" for a bit. And then in 2004, we got that Dawn of the Dead remake which triggered a wave of zombie apocalypse films. And then shortly thereafter, we got Van Helsing and the Underworld movies which had a big focus on werewolf fiction but also started the new vampire cycle, which is sort of where we are right now.

Way I sees it, this is the kind of cycle we're gonna be going through. Once the vampire thing is really played out, we'll move onto something else and then eventually mummies, werewolves and then vampires again.
