BlacBlouse Rating: 6/10

First Impression: action packed my friends!  This movie started out with action in less than 2 minutes of the movie starting...I was impressed.  My immediate thought was this is going to be fantastic movie - I love action.  Then, it started -- moments where there were ups and then downs, then up again. There was also a moment of 'why did they choose this scene' you know the kind that seems out of place or forced.  And, naturally catholic religion is prominent throughout the entire movie. In fact, if I didn't know any better, the movie seems to make a mockery of it. Oh well.  Next up: the vampires.  The vampires reminded me of large puppies encased in an embryo sack -- kind of strange. In any case, it was an okay movie to watch on the big screen. So, if you're into action, horror, sci-fi, thriller, AND violence check out the movie and let's chat! See trailer below...

Wait! Guess who has a brief role in the movie....Stephen Moyer, the same actor who plays Bill Compton in HBO Series True Blood!  He's not a vampire! How about those apples. As always, Enjoy!

HBO Series True Blood: (Vampire) Style

My friends, I am obsessed with the HBO Series True Blood - the dynamics within each episode could rightly spin off into other series. Alas, my interest in the story line is not the primary focus of this particular post. In true form, let's get down to business...the fashions, highlighting vampire style and dare I say -- sophistication.

Introducing: Queen Sophie-Anne LeClerq played by Evan Rachel Woods. In one episode, the queen lounges by the pool (inside her home) reading a vintage Vogue magazine.  How fabulous is that?

Eric Norman, played by Alexander Johan Hjalmar Skarsgård. This character's wardrobe screams style and sophistication -- form fitting sweater or viking attire - doesn't matter, his demeanor exudes smooth operator.

Last but not least, a round of a applause for the wardrobe style and sophistication of Lorena, played by Mariana Klaveno. The character's personality: polar opposite. One word comes to mind -- ingenious.

The person behind the varied styles in the series - head costume designer Audrey Fisher, 2010 Costume Designers Guild Award nominee for HBO’s True Blood - background: theater, opera houses, and now television & film.

Long Live Beauty. Long Live Magnificence. Long Live Individual Style.
