This is an aside titled 'Trailer for Julie Delpy’s Awesome Upcoming Costume Drama/Horror Movie' dated 7/2/08

Here’s the trailer for Julie Delpy’s movie about 16th century virgin blood drinking Hungarian Countess Erzebet Bathory, (the inspiration for many fairytale villainesses.) She produced, wrote, and directed The Countess. Found on Pretty/Scary, who interviewed Delpy last year, “The film is about a woman that has never had limits to what can be done, and she is very cruel. But she goes through a terrible story, the real story that happened, yes, she has the reputation that she killed 600 women and bathed in their blood, these young versions. But there’s also the other side of the coin, which is that the king owed her so much money that they had to get rid of her, which is why they created this mythical monster, and vampire, and witch, and blood, and bathing in blood. I tell both stories. I tell the myth of the monster, and that maybe there is something else behind it.”
