The TV series The Strain may not have Del Toro as directly involved as some of his movies, but his fingerprints are all over it nonetheless. Unsurprising, as it’s based on a book series that bears his name as well. Though the vampires of the Strain in general are top-notch, Quinlan, a human-strigoi (Strain for vampire) hybrid, is one of the very best. Rolling around with ice-blue eyes and a bone-handled sword, it’s fairly undeniable that Quinlan is one bad mother et cetera.
