Day 14 - loved the book, hated the movie...
I'm a big fan of this book. It had a serious, historical tone to it, despite the fact that it's filled with vampires, and that made my nerdy little history-loving heart very happy. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the book, so I eagerly anticipated the movie version, only to be sorely disappointed. It was a cheesy, terrible mess of computer-generated effects and atrocious acting. I shouldn't be surprised, since it is a vampire movie being made in the Twilight Age, but they have been done well in the past (Interview with a Vampire), so I expected better. I choose to forget that I ever saw it.
