Stand still, you ever moving spheres of heaven,
that time may cease, and midnight never come ...

Queen of the Damned

after coming home late tonight, i turned on the tv to check out the late night movies and caught the classic 'disclosure' with demi moore and michael douglas - then another cult classic 'the lost boys' came on after that. not sure if you've guessed by now (via my blogger name), but i LOVE vampires and all things vamp related - music, movies, images .. but more on that later ;p

while bram stoker's 'dracula' with bela lugosi may be an obvious cult classic for some, lugosi's portrayal of (arguably) the best well-known onscreen blood sucking creature of the night may be signature (and still a myriad more vampire classics that i have yet to watch), apart from cruise & pitt's 'interview with the vampire' made famous by anne rice's novels, 'queen of the damned' with aaliyah and stuart townsend is one of the sexiest vamp films out there, despite perhaps the plot and the acting - it is the soundtrack which captivated and TURNED me on .. so sensual and seductive - therein began my bloodlust tendencies .. LOL !!

this is one of the best made video clips for the movie to one of my favourite songs on the soundtrack - 'slept so long' by jay gordon of the band 'orgy' .. enjoy fellow fanglings!
