it's not that simple to determine whether similarities in literature/art is intentional or coincidental. there's definitely some convincing links being established, but as a whole, his argument is a little weak. what the author could have done better was to provide citations. for example, he states that dan o'bannon saw the film planet of the vampires and based his own concepts off it. this is stated as fact, however no proof is ever provided. we are simply to take his word for it. even if he were not lying or deluding himself, it could be a rumor or a misquote. but a citation will allow the reader to determine for themselves through context the authenticity of that particular statement.

Posted in wrong place, my bad, fixing.

Okay, citation has been provided for O'Bannon's claim to having seen Planet of the Vampires. Should you find anything more that I've overlooked, I'd always be happy to know and see what I can do to make the site better

I mean, taken notice of rather than physically saw the film
