Line 43:
* Why do vampire movies never mention what would happen if vampires don't drink enough blood? They'd probably starve, right? You'd think that'd be included on any movie's "how to kill a vampire" list.
** I can't recall any instance of a vampire in any media dying that way. An unfed vampire tends to become completely inert but still alive and potentially conscience (as Lestat does, going into the earth and remaining still for decades but still psychically spying on all around him).
*** It's commonly explained in stories where vampires are protagonists. Usually, it's just plain old starvation, though ''Daybreakers'' had a lack of blood transform them into bat creatures and in ''[[Being Human (UK)]]'' vampires don't actually ''need'' blood at all.
** In one webcomic, 'Vampires vs Zombies', vampires turn into zombies if sufficiently starved. A [[Zombie Apocalypse]] started because somebody sealed a vampire into a coffin and dumped him into the ocean. He turned into a zombie and eventually got out of the coffin. Oops.
*** It's a special case, but when Grlscz in ''The Wisdom of Crocodiles'' fails to feed, he takes on hemophilia-like symptoms and becomes susceptible to even simple wounds.
