Big banner ads all over Comic Con are advertising Tru Blood, the fictional “synthetic blood nourishment beverage” that serves as a blood replacement for vampires in Alan Ball’s new series, True Blood. Eerily convincing, they serve as a clever reminder of the show’s ARG, which also includes a vampire dating site and a blog. Naturally, with all this great marketing and with Alan Ball’s name behind it (not to mention Charlaine Harris, who wrote the Southern Vampire Mysteries books that the series is based off of), there’s a great deal of hype for the show, which documents the world of Sookie, a telepathic waitress, and her relationship with Bill Compton, [...]

Fox Atomic has released a teaser poster for the Diablo Cody penned horror film Jennifer’s Body. You might recognize this poster, as we posted it a couple days ago with a different title card “True Blood“. Of course I’m joking, as the film and the upcoming HBO television series have no real connection. But the similarities in the poster design are too extreme to ignore.

HBO has released a poster for Alan Ball’s upcoming HBO series True Blood. In addition to creating Six Feet Under, Ball won an Adademy Award for America Beauty, and directed the upcoming film adaptation of Towelhead. True Blood is based on Charlaine Harris’ “Southern Vampire” novel series. The series follows the world of vampires set in small-town Louisiana. Apparently the vampires are able to co-exist with humans by drinking a Japanese-manufactured synthetic blood. /Film’s David Chen will be reporting from the True Blood panel later this week at Comic Con 2008. The series is set to premiere on HBO starting September 7th 2008.
