Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
... View Moren my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
... View MoreThe performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
... View MoreThis film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
... View MoreYea. Yea. Yea. This is not everyone's cup of Joe but there is redeeming quality here. The actors are committed to the far-out gags, characters and the well laid out storyline. No one is winning awards and I don't care.I wanted to laugh at some silliness in the vampire genre and that's what this is -- that's all. A splash of ta-tas, nice sword fighting, babe in leather (who should have her own TV show) and the look-a-like mistaken identify angle which is always worth a laugh or two.The mad scientist/Dean sub-plot fit perfectly into a main story that went balls-out for comic bits, some worked, some didn't. So what? Pop some corn, kick back and laugh at the broad but consistent spoof before you.Cheers!
... View MoreEven though the reviews may have been not so good. I thought this movie was really funny and I enjoyed it. There was actually a plot which a lot of comedy spoof movies don't have. Although you haven't seen the actors in much, i thought they all did a really good job. I think the story was cute and i most surely did laugh!! I recommend it to all. It is a shame to see reviewers writing bad reviews. Who believes them anyway. I know that more then half the time I read what they say I don't agree. Its not fair for them to spoil a movie for others, especially a funny one. I think that if people would just give some things a chance, or an independent production company, they would not be mad they spent their money on the movie. Just because there isn't a huge distributors name attached doesn't mean the movie isn't good for what it is. I heard that it isn't going to be in theaters much after the first week and thats really sad because if people would see it they would really enjoy it I think.
... View MoreI'm glad I saw this film the other day. It reminded me of classic comedy with a present day twist. You can tell right away when it starts that the film is not taking itself seriously, and it expects the same from its audience.Without giving too much plot away, this is not a typical spoof film like I thought it would be before I saw it. The story line is an original piece that makes fun of the vampire genre craze as a whole. This was very refreshing to see!The jokes throughout the film ranged from a great deal of subtle comedy to a wide range of old school slapstick and bathroom humor. The film is obviously rated R for a reason. That aside, it never seemed to have too much vulgarity compared to some of the other films I've seen in theaters lately.Also, regarding the subtle humor, because the story line is very complex, you need to pay attention to the film to keep up with the jokes. A lot of which go back to the film not taking itself seriously (a spoof comedy) and having some silly and ridiculous at times things happen in the background or to characters. Best thing to do is just relax and watch it.Regarding the acting on all of the actors part, I have not a single complaint. Everyone seemed true to their characters, including the actors who had more than one role to play. Aesthetically speaking, the cinematography is beautiful, making me forget I'm watching a spoof film at times. The film uses a magnificent castle in Romania for location. And the fight scenes were flawless. Especially a scene involving dual sword combat. And the special effects of this film are exactly what I would expect from any professional studio film.All in all, this is a must see. It is destined to become a classic. A+
... View MoreI had never been in an empty theater before until Saturday, when my girlfriend and I went to see this and we were the only ones there. It was very weird and very creepy. I figured we were in trouble but we stuck it out and watched the whole thing. And I liked it a lot. I've spent the last two days reading how much everyone hates this movie and since I didn't, I have to post here for the first time with my theory on what the studio did wrong. Here goes. I'm a film student so I try to see everything. I watch 4-5 movies on DVD a week and 1-2 in the theaters. And they are completely different experiences. I saw Vincent Gallo's Buffalo 66 on DVD two weeks ago and I loved it. I saw a movie I never knew existed called Little Noises with Tatum Oneal and Crispen Glover on DVD that had the worst sound in the world and it was still great. But I think if I had seen those things in the theaters I would have hated them. I saw Transformers 1 in the theater and I liked it. Then I saw it on DVD and realized it sucks. In the theater you want it to be big and know they spent money. You can't always follow the story because so much is coming at you with sound and sight so you don't even notice when the plot sucks. This thing was cheap and looks it. But I still liked it. It was complicated as hell but was funny and somehow very interesting. I think being in the theater pretty much alone it felt like I was watching a DVD on my couch. But the studio made a HUGE mistake putting this in theaters. They also made trailers that made you think it was a spoof which it isn't. I want to hear what people say about this when they see it at home. Date Movie and Epic movie suck on DVD. I bet this won't. That is my theory.
