Who wants to watch a show about Space Vampires? (Who may or may not be constantly naked this time?)


Deadline is repoting that Ringleader Studios has purchased rights to adapt Colin Wilson's 1976 novel The Space Vampires for television. Yes, the SAME story that was adapted into the 1985 flick Lifeforce. The series will also be titled Lifeforce and (because this is some weird, new rule all TV shows and movies have to abide by now) will come out with a companion graphic novel and video game.

It you're unfamiliar with the original film the plot is fairly simple: "A group of astronauts discover a derelict spaceship and return to Earth with three humanoid aliens that unleash a life-sucking plague upon humanity." Space Vampires, aw yeah.
