A heartbreaking book, and one of the best vampire chronicles around. Armand is a deliciously malicious, yet innocent and loveable character you can obsess over forever. And yummy scenery.

Read the book BEFORE watching the film, or risk being tainted. Despite bearing only a moderate relation to the book, it's good stuff. I watch it to make me happy.

Not for the 'normal' viewer (oh, now there's a shame). Keep an open mind, feel the symbolism and you will love D.D forever. A beautiful film that leaves you reeling.

Much better than Tombraider. Much creepier, and no irritating Lara Croft. And you get to hit things with an electric croquet mallet.

I read this on holiday in Greece, lying on a beach. You don't understand how warped the character has become over time until you read the original. Pretty cover, too.

OK, so they murdered the film. But the music is, on the whole, great. But read the book, please, please, just read the book.
