You did indeed reiterate that. I prefer red-footed boobies but I don't know how to imbed a pic in here. I'm a bit computer illiterate...

I saw it many many moons ago (see what I did there?)* and recall finding it boring and not worth watching again (although still better than the 4th one). Maybe I'll be in a more forgiving state of mind these days, having since seen films that were so much worse. *Stolen blatantly from Mr. Begg. I'm sorry.

The Count *does* say that the werewolf will be driven to kill all others of its bloodline (so why reproduce?) so perhaps we're supposed to infer that it already killed their parents?

I’m glad I didn’t read this one at work…

Gasp think of the office drones!

why all the descendants happen to be orphans

…yeah, what does being an orphan have to do with anything?

The funny thing about V is how the plot kind of collapses under its own weight. I don't think we ever do get an explanation as to why all the descendants happen to be orphans or if the true werewolf is driven to kill the others (which seems to be implied at several points) or why they aren't <i>all</i> werewolves in the first place. I know, I know, thinking too much about hastily written scripts...
