Sorry, this movie sucks

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

In the countryside near to New York, Djuna (Joséphine de La Baume) lives alone with her housemaid Irene (Ching Valdes-Aran) in a manor that belongs to her friend Xenia (Anna Mouglalis). When she meets the screenwriter Paolo (Milo Ventimiglia) at a video rental store, they immediately fall in love with each other. However, Djuna discloses to Paolo that she is a vampire and while making love, she turns him into one. Paolo moves to her house and they happily live together. Out of the blue, her wicked and troublemaker sister Mimi (Roxane Mesquida) appears to stay for a week with them, turning their lives upside-down. "Kiss of the Damned" is an underrated and sexy film romance with a good romance with an international cast where the female vampires are French actresses. The plot is well developed and the music score is classy. In 2013, Jim Jarmusch wrote and directed the cult "Only Lovers Left Alive" with a similar storyline. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "O Beijo do Vampiro" ("The Kiss of the Vampire")

Like Tilda Swinton's "Only Lovers Left Alive", this is a vampire story for serious adherents to the genre.No ridiculous spraying of fake blood, and I loved the philosophical discussion as to vampires' targets and the relationships between humans and vampires.8 out of 10 stars, keep it up we the consuming audience will lap this up and clamor for more - standing ovation !!!!If only every vampire offering had this level of thought we wouldn't be so thirsty for decent offerings...I loved this film and look forward to more from writers and directors....

The vampire Djuna (Josephine de La Baume) resists the advances of Paolo (Milo Ventimiglia), but soon gives in to their passion. When her trouble-making sister unexpectedly comes to visit, Djuna's love is threatened, and the whole vampire community becomes endangered.I did not pay as much attention to this film as I should have, but it had two things that jumped out at me that deserve recognition ,even if I am not ready to write a thorough review.One is Michael Rapaport. He does not get the respect he deserves and has not done nearly enough things. Someone please get this guy some Oscar-winning roles.And two is the style. I feel like Xan Cassavetes was inspired by Italian cinema, and this inspiration comes up in the style, the dialogue and even the casting. A wise decision on her part, and it is nice to see John Cassavetes' talent lives on in the next generation.

I'm a huge fan of all vampire movies... the good, the bad, and the really bad. I knew when I first saw the trailer for this movie it was going to be a tad different from the brooding sparkly vampire teenagers we've come to know over the past several years and I was right. So often vampire movies become campy predictable interpretations that completely miss the mark but this film was dead on (pun intended) From it's stylized 70's themed wardrobe and settings to it's fantastically melodramatic soundtrack it had me absolutely captivated right from the beginning. It's a classic conflicted love story with all the predictable ups and downs complete with a very convincing sociopathic villain but what sets it far apart from the rest of the campy vamp trash that's plagued our cinema screens recently is it's realistic take on a very unrealistic supernatural lifestyle. This movie did a fantastic job of expressing the constant turmoil, trials, and tribulations of a modern day vamp without over glorifying or glamorizing anything. It was gory, captivating, and seductive at all the right times and in my opinion one of the better vamp films I've ever seen.
