Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 25, 2011

YAY Lio!!!!!!

Classic!

Yes! Go, Lio!

Lio, you’re doing it right!

Yeah!!!

Hurray for Lio! Hurray for Bela Lugosi and the classic film version of Bram Stoker’s famous vampire novel! Down with Twilight twittery!

Agreed! (I added a post to yesterday’s Comments.)

What kind of door is that in the background, wrapping around a corner?

Finally someone under the age of 15 with a proper knowledge of what vampires should look like.

I bid you velcome…Mr. Renfield.

I’ll take the Bella with 2 L’s. She’s very very skeery. . ..

THe old ones are the best…

cool!!!

Awesome, Lio!!!

Go Lio, go!

Right on Lio! You just can’t beat the classics!!

Lio, don’t forget Max Schreck, the original movie vampire (Nosferatu, 1922). What an appropriate role it was for him: his last name means “fright.”

Amen… check out what the old movie monsters are up to in Frank and Steinway in Sherpa

I don’t mind him covering that Twilight poster with Bela Lugosi, but I cross the line at him covering Robert Pattinson’s face.

The Key of Awesome did a video with [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1glNuQiE77E]Dracula singing about the Twilight vampires[/url]. If you haven’t seen it it’s very funny

The true bloodsucker!!!

That is hell lot better. Good job Lio :)

the classics rule

Thank You!!!!

Bravo!!!

YES!

YES! My dad would so approve of that!

Lio, the Purist, thru & thru..!

Yesss! No one comes close to the original.

Smart kid, with good taste in vampires.

YES!!!!

Will anyone join me in spitting on these singing ads?

Not that you asked, but:

“I never drink…wine.”

As you all know, if you’ve ever read TV Guide, next to the name and time of each progam and/or film, there’s a capsule description of the plot.

Some years ago. I was perusing the Guide and came across a showing of the Lugosi Dracula.

The entire description: “Accept no substitutes!”

Good one, Lio! Get the REAL vampire out there. Can’t stand what Twilight and its ilk has done to the noble image of the vampire. Bela would be horrified.

also a tip of the hat to bram stoker — his classic started it all and still is the one of the most frightening horror stories i’ve read

Much better poster, and sexier vampire.

You call that a vampire? This is a vampire!

We can’t really blame Twilight for ruining the vampire genre, though. To a certain extent, Twilight piggy-backed off the popularity of Buffy and Angel before it. It’s not that clear-cut.

Booyah!

Thank you! Team Lio!Bela 10!! / Twilight Nuttin….

hooray for Lio!!

Much better!

Way to go! Used to be when a vampire movie guys would go, “Cool”! and girls would go “YUCK”, when did it switch around where girls looked forward to vampire movies and guys dreaded them?

HOOVAH! for Lio for his understanding that Twilight is the most noisome and distorted bastardization of the vampire folk tradition ever devised!

Bela it is! The best vampire ever! Thanks Lio. You’re a good kid.

Bela Lugosi, the ultimate Dracula and Vampire.

GoodBye posers, hello Mr Lugosi!

while i must admit bela lugosi was a good choice, i think a better one would’ve been jonathan frid…

There’s no topping the classics.

GOOD OLD DRACULA—JUST BEFORE HE TURNS BATTY

Oh hecks yeah Lio’!!! Rock on with the classic!

Those sparkly things are not worthy of being called vampires of anything except the wallets of stupid teenage girls.

Lio’s Old School!!!

YES!!!

I would even take Count Chocula over the “Twilight” crap.÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷Team Orlok!

YES! Bela, the one and only.

THANK YOU !!!!

God thank you, Lio

OMG LOVE

Dracula is not the only vampire out there who isn’t sparkly (Thank goodness) . Ever hear of Nosferatu,the Egyptian Vampire?
