Lady Georgiana is invited to a castle in Transylvania to be a royal representative at a wedding. But once she gets there, she sees stuff that seems to involve vampires. And that's before someone drops dead. What's really happening? Plenty of fun as always, although the book does have a bit of a slow start.

"The next one would be Dead Alive by Peter Jackson. Again, another animated cartoon with live actors, and this is a film that really showed me how you can take a violent, dark situation and make it comic. Lots of blood, lots of decapitation, lots of violence, and yet it’s a comedy. That was a big influence on me when I started doing I Married a Strange Person!. I really referred a lot to Dead Alive."

2010 historical action/adventure, headlined by Michael Fassbender, that purports to tell what really happened to the Roman IX Legion: a Legion that, supposedly, marched into Scotland and was never seen from or heard of again.

This is basically a 'behind enemy lines' tales, with the survivors of an ambush of the Legion picked off one by one (amongst gallons of fake blood) by the Picts, until an ending that you could see coming a mile off!
