The series is based on "The Strain" trilogy of books by Del Toro and author Chuck Hogan. They were released in the autumns of 09(The Strain) 10(The Fall) and 11(The Night Eternal). Great books. Very Creepy. Chuck Hogan is a great author also. He penned Prince of Thieves, which was later made into The Town by Ben Affleck.
TV? Huh, I thought it would be a trilogy of movies. I read the first two books. The first was great, really creepy crazy vampires, not sparkly at all. I was actually flying to NY when I started reading the book. It also starts with a plane that lands in NY and everyone is dead. They bring the bodies to the Manhattan morgue, then all hell breaks loose. I was there to take a class at the local Medical Examiner's office and spent the week there with their staff at the morgue. Total happenstance, but that book made the trip a fun time. The second book was kind of a letdown.
Ohhhh,& speaking of Guillermo, he just produced an animated comedy, called "The Book of Life" written and directed by Jorge Gutierrez. it's FULL of Halloween..<3333333 you should check out the trailer.
& i just swiped a window cling (of the La Calavera "cat" Catrina character) from a movie theatre. i'm sure i'll burn!.. :( i would do it again tho.

Yeah, I'm gonna check this out. Can't wait.
I read the book, and it is very creepy...brings menace back to a monster that is otherwise played out, in my opinion.

I once stole a plastic centipede from a rich kid who didn't fully appreciate its importance.
I feel i gave it a much better home.
So not all theft is bad theft : )
i'm SURE you did give it a better home.
Long Live the importance of being Robin Hood. <3333333
