I guess that was a stupid question.

" Sex?

Not really.

it's like a release.

Well it's not like I'm

making that arm any uglier.

- What's that?

- Psoriasis.

It's not catchy or anything, don't worry.

- Can you catch it from blood'?

Can I see'?

- Sorry-

- I mean, I mean kind of sweet, but gross.

Oh you're really into...

- Vampires.

- I was gonna say scary movies.

- No, vampires.

- Like Twilight?

- Yeah, no.

I don't know, I haven't watched it.

- Well you should they're really good.

- Do you want to watch a video?

(muffled orchestral music)

- [Man] The average American

consumes 120 pounds of beef per year.

In a typical month

slaughterhouses across the country

will kill nearly three million cows

and 385,000 lambs.

(lamb screaming)

Each individual on the assembly line

has his own specialty...

- I need to go, I'm

late for this thing so.

- Yeah.

Sorry.

- It's fine, I just, I just have to go.

(crying)

- Milo!

Hey, Milo wait up.

Hi.

- Hi.

- Where are you going'?

- Home.

- Walking?

- Yeah.

- Cool, can I walk with you?

- Sure.

- Do people ever tell

you you don't talk a lot'?

- No.

- Really?

- No one ever speaks to me.

Sorry for showing you that video.

- Don't worry about it.

My friend Leo loves sick videos like that.

He used to show me that

kind of stuff all the time.

I mean it's no big deal I just had to go.

- No, it's fine.

- Do you ever think about suicide?

- Not really.

Can't kill myself.

- You can't kill yourself?

- Yeah.

I can't.

- Like against your religion'?

- I mean, yeah sure, it's just the rules.

It's just the way it is.

My morn killed herself.

- Oh my god, I'm sorry.

- It's fine.

It's just something that happened.

Goodnight.

- Goodnight.

(dramatic music)

- Do you want to go to the

movies with me tomorrow?

- Yeah, okay.

- Okay, cool.

- What time?

- [Milo] Noon.

I'll stop by your place.

(knocking on door)

- Hi.

- Hi.

Ready?

(eerie orchestral music)

- [Milo] Did you like it?

- I thought it was interesting,

I liked the music,

but I still think Twilight is better.

You should see it, or read it,

you know at least the first one.

- I prefer Let the Right One In.

- What's that?

- Maybe I'll show it to you some day.

- Okay.

You know you're the only

one who hasn't like,

immediately asked me what I'm doing here.

- Do you live with your parents?

- No my grandfather, he's pretty awful.

I mean I guess the best

thing about him is that,

is that he's slow so he

can't catch me that often.

- Catch you?

- Yeah he's a violent motherf***er.

Put a cigarette out on me last week.

I almost went to the cops.

- Well,

guess you don't like your grandpa much.

- Yeah it's f***ed up.

(siren blaring)

- Where's your dad?

- He's dead, they're both dead.

- On.

Mine too.

- Really?

- Yeah, my dad died when I was like eight,

but he got sick when I was like six.

I mean it was, it took a

long time for him to die,

but when he did die it was

like a release you know?

He was yelling and screaming all the time.

- Jesus.

- Yeah, it is what it is.

(train rattling)

It's just, I bet the vampires in Twilight

aren't very realistic.

- There's no such thing

as a realistic vampire.

- There is.

I mean more realistic.

I mean, vampires don't twinkle.

- Okay so what are vampires like?

- Well, I think it starts

with drinking blood,

like you have a need to.

It's like when you have

a cut on your finger

when you're a little kid

and you're sucking on it

but eventually that's not good enough

so you switch to animals

and stuff like that

and then you know, people.

And well you change a lot

after the first person you kill

and you change a lot more

after, after one after another.

But I think when you first

start oft being a vampire

all the stuff you see in the

movies doesn't really matter.

Like you can go out in the

sun and you can eat garlic.

I don't even think the

church stuff is even true,

like maybe it's a
