The Vampire's Assistant

In case you've forgotten, Saw VI isn't the only genre film opening this weekend. Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant will also hit theatres on October 23rd, and in celebration of the upcoming release, Universal is allowing fans to join the freak show through the launch of a brand new "iFreak" iPhone and iPod Touch application.

A new clip from Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant (review here) popped up online today showcasing a little vampire tussle. If we're lucky maybe someone will get their ear bitten off!

We've been waiting for this picture for months since the news first broke that the gorgeous Salma Hayek was going to be covering her face with a beard for a role in The Vampire's Assistant (formerly known as Cirque du Freak). And today our patience was rewarded.

I for one really liked the original title of The Vampire's Assistant, which was Cirque du Freak, but I guess we Americans need things all nice and easy ... and in English ... before we accept them. In any event, the first teaser poster for the film landed online today, and we have a look at it for you.

It’s with some shame that I confess to having never read Darren Shan’s book series Cirque du Freak. Not yet, at least. I pride myself on staying atop the genre’s writers, but Shan continues to elude me. He hasn’t eluded Hollywood, however, as Universal is gearing up to release the big budget adaptation of Cirque this fall – only now there’s a title change to contend with.
