The character Tilda is playing is not her role as the Angel Gabriel in Constantine. She played a vampire in amazing movie called Only Lovers Left Alive…Her and Tom Hiddleson place two vampires she plays Eve he plays Adam and they are ancient lovers..It’s a fantastic vampire movie, both are amazing in it, Tilda was meant to play vampire and is so good in it. That’s why she is head of the council they even have her hair styled just like Eve was in the movie…

Is it possible that *The Sire* was never human to begin with? The oldest vampire myth comes from Mesopotamia. However, their vampires weren't humans transformed by a curse or virus. Their vampires were inhuman demons, called Rabisu or Rabasa.

I feel that as they age, since they have transfiguration they just give less of a care about looking human and go further into their more “default” monster form. Like they care less about hiding since they are board and haven’t be caught yet. Perhaps if Peter really wanted to he probably could look more human with his powers. It’s like the freshman dressing up to got to a party vs the senior that shows up in a hoodie and sweat pants.

werewolves and vampires have mythologically the same origin (at least slavic ones) so thats probably why theyre both weak to silver. in fact im pretty sure mythologically the reason why vampires cant see their reflection is because old timey mirrors were made with polished silver
@NColinCorfixsen
11 ай бұрын
To add to the mythology you just mentioned, the reason why they are weak to silver, is due to the payment that Judas Iskariot received, 30 pieces of silver. Which became a mark of those who had betrayed Jesus, and also God. Later it was believed that god used silver to exact his divine punishment to who had betrayed him, much in the same way as with sunlight, or anything holy. On top of that, most modern mirrors are glass coateded in either aluminum, or silver. With silver having the highest light reflective qualities. Most older mirrors was also are just straight up silver coated glass. So the majority of mirrors the viewer sees in What We Do In The Shadows, are vintage, and therefore silvered. Lastly, as silver is a divine tool of god, it is believed that could would never allow the soulless to be reflected in it. Which is why video and cameras still catches the visage of the soulless vampire.

I never got the impression that Petyr couldn't speak. Only that he chose not to. Deacon specifically mentions that Petyr screeched, "NOW, YOU ARE VAMPIRE" after turning him.
My theory about energy vampires is that they're like batteries. As long as they have energy, they're basically immune to everything but when they run out, they'd probably have the same weaknesses as normal vampires. As for the phoenix like resurrections, that sounds pretty cool. I think Colin though is unique in that he can recover his original personality though, through his journals or maybe the original personality is always there and his journals are able to make it resurface.

This features characters from the original film AND the series that followed. Both excellent and very amusing. Some of the characters from the filum occasionally appeared in the series too...and also disappeared in it afterwards.
The time it takes to transform into a vampire seems to vary widely and I think it depends on if you are dead or dying when turned, or not. Nick and Jenna both took days or weeks. Nandor's werewolf girlfriend turned in an instant. Laszlo died under Nadja's attack before he could... finish... and presumably turned before he awoke. Derek says he turned in 6-8 hours. So apparently it depends!

Speaking of chinese vampires (Jiangshi) you should check out the Mr. Vampire series. Its a classic to any asian kid that grew up intreseted in vampire. Its also a very niche group of vampires in America. Id love to see you cover them.
My theory on Collin is that after he was reborn and read his diaries, he DOES remember being an annoying child but pretends like he doesn’t just to annoy and feed off everyone who had to take care of him

There's another show set in the WWDITS universe called "Wellington Paranormal" where the two police officers from the movie investigate, well... Paranormal happenings around Wellington. It actually introduces a few more types of paranormal creatures such as fungal aliens, poltergeists, ghost cars, taniwha and Satan himself.
Collin did remember the past year. He just used Laszlo's sorrow as an energy draining tactic.
The other thing that I've wondered with WWDitS is I genuinely think it's not just a comedy, I think the vampire curse is sending them mad. It errodes their grasp of reality. Maybe it's being dead or having no soul but it's like they can't quite see the world as it is in front of them. Like the side effects of hypnosis but on themselves.

@@coganLollins Dude the book series is insane and long. Go for the first book (can't really do a video about necromancers from these books) and keep it at that. There's like 20 vampire books, it gets crazy and almost sci-fi in later books
I made the mistake of watching the series with a couple friends of mine...when they got to the Vampiric Council episode they became confused by most of the members because some of the movies they were in weren't as well-known, and I had the dubious "honor" of having to explain them (e.g. Tilda Swinton from Only Lovers Left Alive, Danny Trejo from From Dusk 'til Dawn, etc.).
Narrator is an energy vampire. Well played.
Tilda was great in "Only lovers left alive" I can't recomend enough this film❤
Its probably been said, but in the movie deacon probably snuck into the backpack when he was transformed into a bat, and simply turned back a bit later.
I love they consider Wesley Snipes to be the daywalker and actively exclude him on their plans.
13:46 Not a vampire named Tilda, that's actually Tilda Swinton. This is a documentary after all lol
metals like silver and gold are sometimes considered holy metals which is why vampires and Lycan are weak to them, and where the lack of reflections originates from ( old mirrors were made with silver so if vampires existed now a day they would actually have reflections as mirrors are no longer made with silver)
I like to think energy vampires aren't vampires at all, at least not the same kind of species or creature as each other despite their similarities. Like how apparentally Jellyfish and Comb Jellies look the same but aren't as related as we think.
5:40 The reason vampires appear in (digital) photos and videos but not mirrors is because mirrors use a thin layer of silver behind glass to reflect. Of course, this raises the question of why old photos and film of vampires exist and are shown in the credits, but presumably this is because old photo/film development methods used silver *salts*, not elemental silver. 6:15 oh, and maybe the fact that feeding on blood reverts the vampire to their normal age was why Countess Bathory bathed in blood. Feeding in blood can only make you as young as you were when you were turned, but maybe that wasn't enough for her, so she tried everything she could think of.
Tilda's vampire character is from the movie 'Only Lovers Left Alive' which is also a great vampire movie. Don't expect much in the sense of action though, it's very much a slice of 'un'life.
Latest Ep as of posting introduced the Supreme Council of Energy Vampires. The episode before that showed Guillermo as a half-vampire(?) growing bat wings out of his back and showed that his sweat can be turned into sunscreen that will let vampires walk in the sun and only receive a horrible sunburn instead of dying. Also, some vampires can fly into outer space
They disprove the bloodline theory in the movie: Peter is killed but Deacon and Nick both survive to carry on. I mean, the Staten Island vamps may not know that as the New Zealand vampires may have kept that much a secret.
The character Tilda is playing is not her role as the Angel Gabriel in Constantine. She played a vampire in amazing movie called Only Lovers Left Alive…Her and Tom Hiddleson place two vampires she plays Eve he plays Adam and they are ancient lovers..It’s a fantastic vampire movie, both are amazing in it, Tilda was meant to play vampire and is so good in it. That’s why she is head of the council they even have her hair styled just like Eve was in the movie…

There's also Wellington Paranormal, which is a mockumentary that follows the two New Zealand police officers from the 2014 movie as they follow a monster-a-week episode format. That got 4 seasons before it got put on hiatus, and showcases several more of the supernatural creatures in the shared universe, including demons; aliens; sea monsters; and other creatures not touched upon or only lightly visited in WWDitS.

But the one thing the short film has that all other versions lack, is the subtitle "An Interview With Some Vampires", the obvious inspiration for the whole franchise, and the funniest joke ever.

The thing with them not having a reflection in mirrors but being able to be captured in footage is because old mirrors were made with silver, which is commonly associated to be the bane of the unholy and undead.

Because if you're into vampire lore and silly comedy, What We Do In The Shadows is without any doubt the best at that. It's stupidly funny yet the lore is too good. Breaking 4th walls and basically free of any serious vampire laws but they do it in really good funny way. The lore is really awesome, my favourite vampiric lore by far. The movie and series compliment each other. Personally I love the series more. Viaggo, Deacon, Vladislav and Petyr are awesome. But the complete madness of Nandor the banana wins. And Baron Afanas...He's amazing. The mannerisms, body language and all else is perfection. He has that Royal elegant supremacy vibe while being a complete savage. They nailed his looks especially during his entrance. A scarier version of the Unseen Elder (from The Witcher). Energy vampire is a genius creation. We all know or at least have met one of those. Lol.
This movie & series is on my list since it's right up my alley.
