The highly-anticipated movie, "The Twilight Saga: New Moon", opened this weekend and broke the box office. According to The Associated Press, the film made $72.7 million yesterday—giving it the record for a single day of domestic box office sales. Of course, this is no surprise considering that vampires have long been a part of the big screen. Since “Nosferatu”, a silent vampire movie released in 1922, moviegoers have been bitten by the vampiric bug. Below are quotes to celebrate our love of the undead.
