Oh, You are the one who is indulging me with Russian fairytale talk!!
The film also had references on Russian songs and comedy skits ..This is the way the Russian films are often made and it is a part of great appeal. I know in UK they like to make films like that too, they also often cross-reference. I was reminded of it when we watched "Hot Fuzz" recently. Oh, I meant to write about "Hot Fuzz" and forgotten..
Oh, and also I thought the depiction of Vampires was more aligned with Slavic fairytales then with the Hollywood vampire films. (Much less of black leather.. :D). Have you ever read "Vampire family" by Russian 19th century writer Alexei Konstantinovich Tolstoy?
