On one end of a spectrum of cool is the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight follow-up to Batman Begins. On the other end of the spectrum: Batman Dracula. Batman Dracula is one of Warhol's art films from the 1964; directed and produced by Andy Warhol. There is sme dispute as to whether it was done with the permission of DC Comics. It was screened only at his art exhibits and never made it to general distribution. A fan of the Batman serials, Warhol's movie was a "homage" to the series, and is considered the first appearance of a blatantly campy Batman. The film was until recently thought to have been lost, until scenes from the picture were shown at some length in the 2006 documentary Jack Smith and the Destruction of Atlantis. Though Gregory Battcock played Batman, the promotion photos that have surfaced show a woman in Batman's outfit beside Warhol (dressed as Robin).

HeLa : the Case of the Undying Cancer

Here is what Wiki says of the case of Henrietta Lacks : Henrietta Lacks (August 18, 1920 – October 4, 1951) was the involuntary (and likely unknowing) donor of cells from her cancerous tumor , which were cultured by George Otto Gey to create an immortal cell line for medical research . This is now known as the HeLa cell line. On February 1 , 1951 , just days after a march for a cure for polio in New York City , according to Michael Rogers of the Detroit Free Press and Rolling Stone Magazine , Henrietta Lacks visited Johns Hopkins Hospital because of a vaginal discharge.
