This vampire-themed Verizon Wireless commercial would have been better timed if it began running last fall, when the Twilight tizzy was at its height with the release of New Moon. Set in a lush, misty forest that could have been lifted right from the blockbuster film, a woman pleads with her vampire boyfriend to give her eternal life. Just as he bares his fangs and moves in to fulfill her wish, he discovers a deal breaker — AT&T’s spotty 3G coverage map hovering over her head.
