Christopher Pike's The Last Vampire Headed to Film

When I was younger I use to read quite a few of Christopher Pike's novels. He was a real bad ass writer who my parents would probably not have approved of me reading his work. He is known for his The Last Vampire franchise which spanned several books. When I heard the news that it was being picked up by FilmNation Entertainment I was extremely happy.. until I realized why.

The actual books were filled with blood, sex and plenty of foul language.. what every teenager would want in a book. But with the recent popularity of the Twilight vampire I am nervous about what they may be doing with this adaptation. We will have to wait for quite some time to find out exactly what they will be doing but hopefully they remain true to Christopher Pike's original novel.

In case you never read the books the synopsis for the first novel is below:

Alisa has been in control of her urges for the five thousand years she has been a vampire. She feeds but does not kill, and she lives her life on the fringe to maintain her secret. But when her creator returns to hunt her, she must break her own rules in order to survive.

Her quest leads her to Ray. He is the only person who can help her; he also has every reason to fear her. Alisa must get closer to him to ensure her immortality. But as she begins to fall in love with Ray, suddenly there is more at stake than her own life...
