There HAS to be more life out there. Because, humans are boring. We are in no way shape or form Empire Builders. I see us doing a Covenant kinda thing, and being the Explorers/Warriors of the Universe.
Vampires were originally the sum of sin, and how it could only damn you if you let it. Because, if you'll remember, Vampires must be invited into a home to enter. ut, once they are in, you are forever lost. Until you uninvite them/Boot them out/Withdraw it.
Also, zombies don't have a beating...
I would be with the vorts.
"Sure doesn't tast like crab.."
"That is because you are eating a shoe."
"oh.."
Also, they are Evil Combines from Outer Space and Science!
Wow. Really makes you think. Only thing I can really say is, this is the first step. Once we leave our solar system, if ever, we will still never make up anything bigger than the fiftieth largest star.
