PIRANHA 3D Director Looking to Take On UNDYING LOVE

Piranha 3D director Alexandre Aja is currently negotiating a deal to take on a feature film adaptation of Image Comics' Undying Love. The comic was published in 2011 and was created by Tomm Coker and Daniel Freedman, who have also written the script.

According to the official description, the story is "a horror-action tale, equal parts vampire mythology and Chinese folklore, set in modern day Hong Kong. Ex-soldier John Sargent has fallen for a beautiful Chinese woman named Mei. The only thing keeping the star-crossed lovers apart: Mei's a vampire. To free Mei from the curse, Sargent sets out to destroy the vampire that made her. The only problem: Mei was turned by one of the most powerful vampires in history..."

I haven't read the comic, but I guess it has the potential of turning out to be good movie regardless of all of the vampire films that will eventually be released. Vampires are a fact of life, and no matter how hard we try we can't escape them, they will always be with us now and forever. Vampire movies will never die. 

As for Aja possibly directing the film, I've never really loved anything he's done, so I imagine this will turn out to be one of those mediocre comic book film adaptations. Where do you currently stand on the status of vampire films in Hollywood?
