This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
View MoreExactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
View MoreThe movie really just wants to entertain people.
I wouldn't call this a scary movie, yes you might get a few jumps of shock but honestly it is not that bad for kids over 10 years old to watch this film. Anyways the movie was more like a slapstick nice comedy then you think. I suppose Amy Heckerling just wanted to keep it nice and sweet since Alison Silverstone and Wallace Shawn were involved with the whole lot. It's surprising that Wallace actually used curse words, part of my childhood ruined. Well duh, it's not that bad, he is still a great icon for my generation, he deserves credit like since I don't see him much in films these days. Alison honestly looks well and to be honest, she will always be that young teenage girl from Clueless in my eyes. She's always the stunning lady.I know Justin Kirk is way older then me but I thought he was pretty darn sexy in this for some reason as his character Vadim. He really should've played as Dracula instead of Malcolm McDowell to be honest. Oh by the way, be prepared for blood if you're watching this film.
View Moreconsidering the cast here, this film had some promise. BUT NO--everyone in this awful mess of a film fails miserably, with the possible exception of wallace shawn, who is always amusing--Richard Lewis has never looked worse--the writing in this film is so banal, unfunny, and so pointless that it defies description-- each scene makes less sense than the one before it,so disjointed that my mouth was agape in astonishment--the soundtrack is ...really bad lol Alicia has aged and doesn't fit in well here, and Sigourney Weaver,committing a bloody massacre, and why? and then some xray vision comes out of her eyes,why? Malcom McDowell is so old that its distracting and....well why go on? Stay away from this film unless you are desperate and drunk
View MoreThis vampire comedy is very witty, cute and laugh out loud funny. There were so many jokes and original ones too. More subtle humor than the Leslie Nielsen spoof movie with Mel Brooks which is a bit obvious.Amy Heckerling of Clueless directs this winner. Alicia is her charming self and Kriten Ritter is her sidekick. Good supporting cast from Sigourney Weaver (why doesn't she do more comedy - she's so funny) to Downton Abbey's Dan Stevens.This should have been a box office hit - don't understand why it more or less went to DVD.Watch it!
View MoreWhat can I say? I thought I'd give this a try because of all the glowing reviews on IMDb - maybe have an enjoyable 'chick flick' night in with some popcorn and a few laughs. Besides, a movie with Sigourney Weaver and Malcolm McDowell couldn't be all bad? Boy, was I in for a big disappointment! Whilst the premise had potential (2 girly vamps, surviving in modern NY and abstaining from human blood, while trying to live 'normal' lives), the execution was dire - the acting was amateurish and I'm afraid that Alicia Silverstone is past the age of this kind of role - she acted more mature in "Clueless"! Sigourney must have cringed when she saw the finished result, she was given terrible material to work with and wasn't able to improve on it. Malcolm McDowell's cameo as Vlad Dracul was actually quite funny, but there wasn't enough of him to save the film. Dan Stevens as 'son of Van Helsing' just looked bewildered and sorry to be there, which I'm sure he was - this was not a good choice for a break-through role in Hollywood. Sincerely, don't waste your time - if you want a comedy vamp film, dig out "Love at First Bite" - if you want Sigourney being nasty, watch "Working Girl" - well, just watch ANYTHING other than this woeful mess!
