    As an impressionable teenager my friends and I watched The Hunger, a nearly six thousand second movie, but (as far as I know) none of us ever became lesbian vampires.

    In fact, it wasn't until a few years ago that I even learned of the 1872 context, thanks to a second-world remake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmilla
