Yessssssss - I'm squealing like a little girl and I just can't help it. My favorite fictional author, Laurell K. Hamilton, is going to have her famous Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter book series adapted on the small screen!!! Happy Dance, Happy Dance!!!


IFC announced:
"...it has greenlit its first original event telefilm, “Laurell K. Hamilton’s Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter,” based on Hamilton’s series of best-selling paranormal fantasy novels and produced by Lionsgate and After Dark Films. Adapted by Glen Morgan (X-Files, Final Destination), who also serves as executive producer, the movie begins production this summer... Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter marks the first time in IFC tv’s history that we have created a fictional feature film for the network."
