AFM: Amy Heckerling Not Clueless About Vamps

AFM: Amy Heckerling Not Clueless About Vamps Director Amy Heckerling of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Clueless, and those damned Look Who’s Talking flicks is ready to throw her hat into the blood-sucking arena with the new film Vamps.

According to Screen Daily Parlay Films has acquired all international rights to the romantic comedy Vamps, which will be written and directed by Heckerling.

The film will be a modern-day tale of two young female vampires living the good life in New York until love enters the picture and each has to make a choice that will jeopardize her immortality.

Krysten Ritter (pictured right) is on board as one of the female leads with additional casting under way. If the name sounds familiar, it’s because she’s also one of the stars of Jon Heder’s new web series “Woke Up Dead” that we reported on recently.

Judging from her previous work, I wouldn’t be looking for this flick to be having any — pardon the horrendous pun — bite. Production is set to begin in March, 2010. Look for more on this one soon.
