Here's a recent interview with Guillermo Del Toro regarding his recent vampire novel, www.wired.com/underwire/2011/11/interview-guillermo-del-toro/all/1 he hits on some similar points that Sean and Lynn do.

Del Toro is always in my head.

Interesting article. I like his take on things; maybe I should read these books.

Funny what he said about Romero paying homage to I Am Legend with zombies, since the new movie kind of tried to make the vampires more like Romero zombies.
