3:10 to Yuma - the original

Sep 27, 2008 18:30

Our library has an eclectic collection of DVDs, and the other day I rented 3:10 to Yuma - the 1957 B&W version with Glenn Ford and Van Heflin, remastered and reissued (and looking damn fine, I have to say) as the remake was released. I enjoyed it a whole lot, and in fact, I think it is a better movie than the 2007 remake and recommend it to ( Read more... )

And now my brain is generating all sorts of supernatural cowboy vampire ideas. Oh dear.

*encourages*

Yeah, it's still an AU. Or maybe a fusion of two versions. I wish there were more consistent terminology for how things are AU.

All the melodrama of the new ending plus added ridiculous crawling-out-of-the-grave melodrama. It bears pondering.

ZOMBIE COWBOYS FTW!

Bah. Zombies are not sexy. I just like the version of vampire mythology that involves people who are just too evil/fucked up to stay dead.

You know... I never did finish reading that massive tome of Eastern European vampire legends. Mmm, ridiculous scholarly works.
