Time to get the garlic out as Horror Channel presents Vampire Week , a bitefest of vampire movies from 13 - 19 of March, led by the channel premiere of 30 Days Of Night , David Slade's savage riff on the vampire myth, starring
Josh Hartnet and Melissa George. There are also classics and cult favourites to sink your teeth in to, including Matt Reeves' critically-acclaimed vampire fantasy Let Me In , and Tom Holland's voracious teen vampire hit Fright Night
, John Carpenter's Vampires , a horror Western starring James Woods, as a vengeful, stake-wielding bloodsucker hunter, and Francis Ford Cappolas powerful Bram Stoker's Dracula , starring Gary Oldman as the immortal Count. Also, Paul
Bettany is in fine vampire-killing form in Priest , and a vampire-diseased Milla Jovovich fights for her life in martial-arts futurist thriller Ultraviolet . Plus, the Brits sharpen their stakes with Tom Paton's
nerve-shredding Redwood , a fresh spin on the creature-in-the-woods mythology, and Eat Locals in which actor Jason Flemying makes his directorial debut with a bloodsucking comedy chiller featuring Mackenzie Crook, Dexter Fletcher and
Annette Crosbie.
