Negative Positive
Title: Interesting ideas, but...
Review: I picked up this book because I saw and liked the movie. The concept of a crew of workaday vampire killers and their specialized equipment intrigued me. I hoped there would be more of that in the book than there was in the movie, but I was disappointed.And what a tough read! Macho men and women as envisioned by a Sci Fi conventioneer. The painful chapter about the tragic heroine lifted from bad gothic romances was almost unreadable and killed whatever momentum the book had. More shallow than most comic books.Stick with the movie even though it falls apart towards the end. James Woods is terrific.
