Truly Dreadful Film
This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Really Surprised!
an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
View MoreBloodlust comes off like some cheaply shot rock video, you kind of think the director of Buffy Down Under was involved. That's a more simplified description. Cheaply shot, atrociously acted by some who don't even care. Some other characters purposely overacted, add flavor to this really bad indi-horror comedy, about three vampires roaming the streets of Melbourne, having sex, taking drugs, just like us humans, but also, of course craving blood. The scenes with the priest were great, his overacting, worthy of definite praise. If only they had Oscars for best overacting in a film. There's quite a bit of graphic violence, that runs quite successively throughout. One scene I recall in a servo, was a poor sod strung up, dead, save for what measly part was left of his johnson. This film does succeed as a comedy as I did find it very funny. But the bottom line, it is a terrible movie, but avid horror fan I am, I did like this one a lot. It's cheap credibility works for it, as well it's funny script, a lot of it's dialogue summed up in short sentences, which I liked. It's a movie I come to view every so often, between long spaces of years, after first seeing it in 1992. It does have an independent, pumped up energy about it, I loved. I know I could never get sick of seeing it, even though it's Z grade schlock of pathetic stature. It's just's so bad, it's good. What can I say?

View More.......this is a must for role players and Vampire: The Masquerade junkies. It portrays vampires as parasites and draws parallels between vampirism and addiction. good triple-cross plot line, original and inventive. 3 Gypsyish vampires roam Australia, screwing and getting high. They decide to rob a local mobster, incurring his wrath. Meanwhile, the pigs are investigating the blood-drained corpses littering the city. As if that's not enough aggravation, a local group of fundamentalist Xtian vampire-hunters is aggressively trying to drive stakes through the hearts of all of the bloodsuckers. Still not as good as other vampire movies, but scores points for originality and outright depravity. Worth a look. Lotsa gunfights.Coulda been directed in a more artistic manner, but still preferable to most Hollywood bull***t...what can I say, I love that B-movie vibe. Odd directorial choices, half of the Aussie cast attempts to speak like American rednecks, resulting in some amusing, if somewhat unbelievable dialogue. Don't be a pussy, check it out.
View MoreLet me start by saying this: if you go into this movie expecting the next Interview With the Vampire or Lost Boys, you're in for a HUGE disappointment. If, on the other hand, you are a fan of cheesy, low budget schlock films, this is the film for you. It is a little reminiscent of Peter Jackson's early efforts (Bad Taste & Brain Dead), and is of about the quality you would expect from a first year film student. I had the good fortune to see this movie at a rare screening during an alternative film festival in Melbourne. The cast is a who's who of Melbourne (Australia) pseudo-celebrities (particularly from local radio station RRR). As has been noted, the special effects (gore effects) are very cheap and nasty, but in a way that actually adds to them. The characters are comic-book like, totally unbelievable but pretty funny. The movie also features a pumping industrial soundtrack, with bands like Revolting Cocks, Lead Into Gold and 1000 Homo DJs. Coincidentally, all three of these bands are projects of industrial guru Al Jourgensen (Ministry). There is no denying the acting is terrible, but as far as I know, none of these people are professional actors. There are some very violent confrontations, some good toilet humour, and grossout scenes aplenty. If you can ignore the poor acting and low budget, and enjoy a good, violent schlock comedy, then you will like Bloodlust.
