TrueHello

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

OK I felt like tearing my eyes out for having seen this I like Vinnie Jones, Michael Madsen but they made a fantastic piece of garbage and does Michael Matthias have down syndrome? Seriously he talks like a idiot and the script was beyond horrible. The effects could a been done on 100,000 film budget easily. I am sorry for having DVR'd this and couldn't wait to delete it. Too bad I couldn't give the film a minus review I think that should be made an option for rating films!!!!I couldn't even give this a B Movie award cause that would be disrespecting B movies! From the beginning to the end I sat there waiting for the movie to actually get better but it got worse and worse as it progressed I was like when is it gonna get to the good part a mindless untalented piece of trash I i had of paid for this I would've shot the person who sold it to me!!!!

If you could cast anyone as the king of the vampires, would you choose Vinnie Jones? That's just one of the problems plaguing this laughable horror-action outing shot in Wilmington, North Carolina. But the main problem is our leading man, one Michael Matthias (also a producer, tellingly). Matthias has exactly one facial expression, whether sad, angry, happy, trying to be funny or banging on about his Shelby Super Snake racing car (it's mentioned a lot). He also narrates in a dull monotone (for some reason a Brendan Kelly gets a special credit for writing this insipid monologue). Anyway, Matthias has to kill Cain (Jones), an evil resurrection of his dead soldier brother who was killed on manouvers in Afghanistan. He's aided by Michael Madsen as a sub-machine gun-totting priest. It ends with a shootout at an old factory-turned-nightclub filled with vampires (inspired by BLADE i guess), and an extended car-chase (Director Picerni has been a stuntman since the early 60's!). Competing with Matthias and Jones (who's souther accent is forever slipping) for the worst actor on-screen is rapper DMX (who doesn't last long). With Armand Assante and William McNamara.Movie reviews at: spinegrinderweb.com

After finding out his brother has killed his parents Shawn (Matthias) he sets out on a quest for revenge. After finding his parents dead, Shawn finds out that his brother (Jones) has become a vampire. Shawn is the only one that can kill him, and the hunt begins. This is a hard movie to review, only for the fact that I'm not sure what this movie was. If it was meant to be a serious film then it was terrible. If it was meant to be a type of satire and over-the-top on purpose then it was great. I'm gonna assume the later because I can't believe this was supposed to be serious (Michael Madsen plays a heavily cursing priest). It was funny and entertaining and not a bad way to spend an hour and a half. The dialog is campy and the acting is pretty bad, but if you look at it as a cheesy on purpose movie it's good. I give it a B.Would I watch again? - I may, again with friends and beer.

A man's brother apparently dies in combat in the Middle East. And yet, this same brother is somehow connected to Cain, a vampire clan leader. And there is a legend of a slayer... and some muscle cars...A film so simple as this should not be so hard to describe, but it is. Someone wanted to write "Blade", but it was already written. They also wanted to write "Fast and the Furious", but that idea was taken. So, what did they do? They meshed them together in one film, threw in some other nonsense, and made a film. It took almost two years to get released, and I am not surprised.First of all, I cannot stress how much the main character (Michael Matthias) wants to be Vin Diesel. He looks like the Wal-Mart brand of Vin Diesel, Wal-Diesel or something. And how DMX is thrown in as a guy who knows way too much about vampires and somehow knows a slayer when he sees one... not sure why.Vinnie Jones plays Cain, and it is nice to see him with (presumably fake) hair. But this is not a great role for him and makes his acting look terrible. Michael Madsen is Father Roy, and while I always enjoy seeing Madsen, he does too many genre films with people who cannot bring out his best. Aside from Tarantino's films, what is the last great thing he did? Katherine von Drachenberg (aka Kat Von D) also appears.The plot holes, time line, and more just do not add up on this to a decent movie. The acting is weak, the directing is decent, though it is clear the emphasis was on the action and not the acting. The director's background is as a stunt man, and I can easily say the stunts here are just fine... the film is, however, a mess... and I do not know who to blame first.
