Frankenstein, Vampires and Dexter

I can't believe how long it's been since I posted. That wasn't intentional. This weekend I was staring at the screen thinking I'd like to write something and couldn't think of anything I wanted to say. This is what I miss about Potter fandom--there were always conversations going on that made me want to join in.

I just read a review of Sweeney Todd that was really good and made me very happy about this movie--it's my all-time favorite musical so of course I've been paranoid about anything going wrong. I've seen it three times--once a production done at UMass when I was in college, once with Elaine Paige at Lincoln Center and then the most recent revival with Michael Cerveris and Patty Lupone—each one was really great. I was not taken to the original on Broadway with my parents despite repeated requests and am still complaining about that.:-)

Speaking of serial killer heroes, I have been watching Dexter and reading the TWOP forums, and while it's not rampant I am beginning to take more interesting in the "woobifying syndrome" now that I'm watching that show. ( Some spoilers for Dexter, seasons one and two, inside, and one little one for Psycho. )
