Lately, I've been watching a lot of True Blood and with a fair amount of enjoyment. This surprises me because I'm seriously sick of human/vampire romance/lust plots. A part of the appeal is the location, the deep south of the good old USA. I've always enjoyed stories that take place in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, and Alabama area. It might be because of the cowboy boots, damn I wish I lived in a place where I can wear cowboy boots and not slip on ice half the year. Anyway, let's take a look at some of the classics.
1) Preacher:
Simply put probably one of best if not the best comic book series ever. I've talked about this comic on the blog before and will likely do so again in the future.
2) Near Dark:
This is perhaps my 2nd favorite vampire of all time. Cheesy in many ways but Bill Paxton's lines are gold in this movie.
3) Vampires:
I think this a truly underrated Vampire movie. Added plus the Vampires are actually evil not love interests.
Definitely the best of the 2 Kill Bill movies.
5) North and South:
I suspect I likely wouldn't like this mini-series today but back in the 80s when I was a teenager with only 2 channels this baby got me through one winter.
I'm sure I could think of dozens and dozens more and if I got into westerns maybe even more.
