The way I interpret the popularity of one type of horror movie over another has more to do with what people fear. People who tend to vote for republicans fear the throngs of poor huddled teaming masses coming to eat their brains (and their hard-earned cash). People who tend to vote for democrats find it more fear-inspiring to think about some powerful unseen force swooping in and draining them from above.
So zombies would represent fears of tax and spend while vampires would represent corporate greed.
Isn't this the second time in the last 3 months that Indian police have announced increased powers of censorship over Orkut? One of these days reporters in India will get the clue and actually try to understand what it is they're reporting on. I believe last time this came about, Google pointed to their handy tool.
I have got to imagine it's difficult to figure out what's actually going on in India, with such careless journalism.
