Laurell K. Hamilton Movie « Suvudu - Science Fiction and Fantasy Books, Movies, Comics, and Games

The barrage of fantasy and science fiction movies continues!
This time on television.
Laurell K. Hamilton, the bestselling author of the Anita Blake and Merry Gentry series, will have one of her creations brought to live action telefilm in Summer 2010!
IFC, the Independent Film Channel, has greenlit Hamilton’s Anita Blake series into production. Lionsgate and After Dark Films will produce and the series will be adapted by Glen Morgan (”X-Files,” “Final Destination”), who also serves as executive producer. The movie begins production this summer.
The telefilm will center on the character of Anita Blake, a street-savvy, down-to-earth vampire hunter with a lousy dating life and a penchant for bringing dead people back to life.
For those Twilighters out there who are craving more blood-sucking storytelling, it is time for you to go to the beginning and either go out and buy Guilty Pleasures or wait until Summer 2010!

Let the sucking begin!

I’m not so sure that readers of Meyer’s squeaky-clean, chaste, tweenage fantasy will enjoy Hamilton’s orgies, I mean noirish paranormal thrillers. Not every girl-lusts-after-vampire story is aimed at the same audience.

Not to mention the first few Anita Blake books are actually good books without the “orgies” featured in later volumes.
