Holy sh*t, you're right... and way to be the only other person I know to have read that book.

For some reason I always thought it mentioned Chicago. Guess it's time to reread it.

yeah, i'm a fan of obscure fiction...and vampires. speaking of obscure fiction, read The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty. It's a total balls out spin on the fairytale.

Someone said the same thing about "Wicked" (Oz) and I'm about 3/4's the way through and thoroughly unimpressed. I'll pick it up this weekend though.

I guess I should say that the someone said it would be cynical and humorous... it's been a f*cking love story so far. Sure it's added political elements to Oz, but if I wanted to read about politics, I'd read the NYTimes.

lol... seems interesting enough. That actually sounds like Wicked. The Wicked Witch of the West turns out to be a bleeding heart slut. I mean, the book would have been better had I started reading it expecting it to be what it is, instead of being led to believe there was something funny coming up. I keep reading thinking, "Ok. Where the f*ck's the humor?"

I mean, if I pick that up, I at least know it's Rice and know what to expect for the most part.

It's based on a "graphic novel" not a "regular novel" so you basically ownd yourself by reading that book. That's kinda like reading a book about 300 after 300 came out.

graphic novel, book w/e

I thought in the book they were in LA?

No. I have read the "Graphic novel" book what ever you want to call it. In the "Book" there are some parts that take place in New Orleans.
The sequel is set in LA.

Went and saw the movie earlier with friends, and you're right, it was f*cking cheesy. We ended up laughing 3/4 of the movie.

[Jack]

I'm watching it now...it's...i'm waiting for I Am Legend.

[DarkShadow]

The Vampires looked a bit retarded, made me laugh more then anything...

Great frickin movie. Next to Dawn of the Dead and 28 Days later/weeks later, this is the best horror film I've seen.
