Incidentally, Bara’s lost career is a prime example of why trashing, well, trash is so bad. The vamp fad was extremely brief, less than five years. Vamps were incredibly uncool for years and vamp films were an embarrassment that didn’t deserve serious preservation efforts.

Most beloved vintage things experience a time in the wilderness and that is when they are most vulnerable. When I was a tween, Queen and The Bee Gees were just not the thing you listened to if you wanted to be cool. Keanu Reeves was a punchline. And Theda Bara’s movies rotted due to being uncool.

A Series of Vault Fires will be the name of my new album. Well, as soon as I get a band name. Vamp Fad perhaps?
