That was an excellent one.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

All of the acting is good and I can not emphasize enough on the artistically genius way this film was directed. The film is graphic but there is enough black humor to put it off, otherwise it would be a cold and brittle film. If you have seen nearly every vampire movie ever created or are trying to, you could like this, if you're open minded and not one to compare.I am not saying that this movie is substandard or inferior to any other vampire movie, just definitely one of a kind, and obviously misunderstood. not for squeamish or prudes.If you like David Lynch and violent vampire films, you might like this. I wasn't too fancy on the soundtrack but it wasn't horrible either, soft goth rock or something like that but the OST is fine.

I first came upon this movie in a video store looking for a horror movie to pass the time later that night. The back sounded interesting, so I grabbed it and took it home. This has to be one of the worst movies in cheesy movie history. The acting was, for the most part, terrible, and the plot had no real meaning. The film and graphics were also extremely bad and the ending was extremely stupid. Needless to say, the movie was returned and replaced on the shelf for the next poor movie watcher that stumbles upon it. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

As far as vampire films go, this is undeniably weak. But it does have one redeeming quality - John Savage. He seems to be having a good time making this film. Imagine his character from The Thin Red Line as a happy-go-lucky vampire, and that's what you get in this film. Aside from Savage, though, this isn't good. This is a Roger Corman film, so it has lots of the usual T&A and cheesy gore, but even that's not enough to recommend it. Unless you're a John Savage completist.

John Savage...... My, how the mighty has fallen. Do yourself a favor. When you see this film at your local video store, make the sign of the cross with your fingers (or, pinch your nose--optional) and just walk away. If you rent (or God-forbid, buy) this film, it WIll suck the brain cells right out of your head.
