O.K. so today I found the first trailer for the movie Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant.
The movie is based on the book series Cirque du Freak by Darren Shan.

I haven’t read the books yet, but they are on my list. A couple of readers a while back mentioned them in comments on a book review I did so I looked it up and the books seem cool. The trailer for the movie looks cool too so I thought I would share. The movie comes out October 23rd and I am pretty sure I’m gonna have to check it out.

The books are about a traveling freak show led by a vampire. A boy bored with his life becomes a vampire and joins them.

Has anyone read these books? Did you like them? Well I hope you enjoy the trailer!

  23. Sophie Baker says:

    this actualy look rather good actualy. the bloke in it is so funny andit just seems like a weirdly different film which is awsome =] … but twilight is still gunna be at the top of the list though – closely followed by new moon and eclipse =D … ?

  24. leech over MUTT any day! says:

    hmmmm im not so Happy about who they casted for the roles… but overall i think and hope the movie lives up to the book;]]

  25. Daquon B ( TWI-GUY) says:

    OMG I CANT WAIT FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i read this series in 7th grade and it was AWESSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The trailer makes it look a little goofy cause Mr.Crepsly doesnt just casually ask if Darren wants to be a vampire. BUT GOD I CANT WAIT!!!!!

  26. jess says:

    iv never read the books and dont c myself doing so in da future but that movie actually looks kinda awesome! if its also out here in england in octobr then i wanna c it!

  27. twl fan says:

    I don’t know,it looks interesting,but Twilight saga will always be my #1!!!

  28. oooo it looks pretty good
    i wanna see it

  29. TWILIGHT’s #1 Tho*

  30. i?edward says:

    it looks interesting i only the 1st 3 books

  31. andrea says:

    i read 3 books out of the series

  32. Lara says:

    Yuck. Clowns and circus-type things freak me out. I am too chicken to even watch the trailer.

  33. Bonnie says:

    I found the books really boring. I couldn’t get into them actualy. But we all have different tastes..except in Twilight :o )

  34. Kelcey says:

    i have read the books! BORING!!! They aren’t as good as twilight obviously

  35. Nicole says:

    I read these books before I read the Twilight series, and I absolutely loved them – a definite must-read! Great, amazing books!

  36. Team Jacob! says:

    i dnt think ill be goin to c this film its really weird i just like the classic (well not really but…) vegetraian vampires e.g the modern romeo and juliett!!!

  37. Team Switzerland! says:

    Yeah.I like twilight cuz its more of a romance,with action,andi like daren shan but it is more of a action with barely any romance but with that debby i think is her name chick.And this is more of the sterotypes of vampires.The daren shan vampires,dont sparkle,they burn in the sun,um i dont remember if they cant stand garlic,idk,but they drink humans,and there is another type of vampire,their cousins the vampaneze…so i tottaly understand why some twihards dont wanna read it.But i read the series a long time ago and love them!!

  38. heartEC4eva says:

    read the books and let me say they are awsome!

  39. shahar EB says:

  40. i would if i can mabey but twilight is my nuber one.

  41. morgan says:

    I want to see that(:

  42. vampsrkool says:

    i read up 2 the 1oth when skool starts ill read the last 2 but the first one is just called cirque du freak, the 2nd 1 is called cirque du freak: the vampire’s assistant so i guess their combining the 1st and 2nd book btw the seried is great so far

    Twilight is still #1!

  43. Cortney aka. twerdi says:

    Ok. If it has nothing to do with twwilight or new moon, then what is the point of having it on this site. I thought this is strictly TWILIGHT!

  44. oh awsum!!! lukks really kewl i wnna see it.

  45. Grusome The Twi-Guy says:

    cool

  46. Christina :) says:

    Finally, I’ve been waiting for this trailer to pop up forever ! I mean it comes out before New Moon, and yet there was no trailer ? Haha ! But I just finished the final book of the series last week and I LOVEEE it ! I suggfest it to anybody who likes a lil more action in their books, but it;s still got that love aspect in it throughout the series. I loved loved loved it && can’t wait for it to come out in October ! <3 :D

  47. Abagail says:

  49. Yazzybee says:

    Love the books, i didn’t finish reading the entire series but they are good non the less……I’m VERY EXCITED for the movie…..even though i have to agree that Mr. Creepsley could be played by someone better….

  50. ILoveSnakeBoy!! says:

    I HAVE READ ALL THE CIRQUE DU FREAK BOOKS AND I THINK THEY ARE ONE OF THE BEST SERIES IN THE WORLD. (OF COARSE TWILIGHT IS KOOL TO) BUT THE CIRQUE DU FREAK SERIES ARE GREAT I CANT STOP READING THEM. EVERYBODY SHOULD READ THE SERIES THEY ARE AWSOME. I CANT WAIT FOR THE MOVIE TO COME OUT. ITS GOING TO BE GREAT.
