Sarah Palin, George Bush, cast of ‘Jersey Shore’ top list of people whose blood should be sucked
January 5, 2010 by Jane Boursaw
Whoever is running the publicity for “Daybreakers,” the thriller about a population of vampires forced to suck peoples’ blood for survival, is doing a pretty good job.
In a “man on the street” thing, they asked people to say whose blood they’d like to suck if given the opportunity. Sarah Palin, George Bush, the cast of “Jersey Shore,” and Halle Berry (say what?) topped the list.
“Daybreakers” sinks its teeth into theaters this Friday Jan. 8, 2010. It’s directed by Michael Spierig, and Ethan Hawke is one of the players. Rated R for strong bloody violence, language and brief nudity.

She’s accusing her of stealing ideas for the fourth book in the series, “Breaking Dawn.” I mean, there’s only so many plotlines you can take with a vampire, right?
Jordan Scott’s lawsuit claims that while she was writing her book, “The Nocturne,” she posted passages online, which Meyer then stole for her own book.
I haven’t read "The Nocturne,” but apparently, the books have similar language, storylines, …read more
