Strictly average movie

People are voting emotionally.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

If it was possible I would give the cinematic masterpiece vampire dog 11 stars (or Jellies if you have seen this life changing movie). Vampire Dog brings us to a mysterious place called Lagousi County, located somewhere in North America. I would presume it is in the true America based on the abundance of American Flags.The basic premise may seem childish to those who do not possess a fine eye for cinema. Albeit cliché this charming coming of age story about a young man's mission to stop the closure of the sole public school in the county teaches us about life and the meaning of growing up and death.The acting was marvelous, especially the recorder solo located at the climax of the film. The villains obviously were symbolic of the federal government trying to close public schools in favor of corporate greed.Alas my space has run out, and instead I must end with my thoughts. I believe Vampire Dog is a once in a vampire dog's life film. I give this two fangs up!

This movie has very little to do with Vampires, or blood, or any real evil. The dog talks and has to avoid sunlight. Oh, and instead of drinking blood, he's into red Jello, but since this was made in Cananda, they call it "jelly". Sure the acting is awful but it's meant to be. The whole movie is slap stick and campy.There's a sad boy who lost his Dad to illness, starting over in a new school. There's a neighborhood love interest who's nerdy but trying to keep in good graces with the "cool girls" that have allowed her to hang with them. Both kids are challenged to stand up to the mean kids, learn to be true to themselves, and do what they are good at.The most raucous slapstick is reserved for the school's unscrupulous principal, and the (out of left field) goons that try to catch the dog throughout the movie and are foiled by the dog. They always get what's coming to them. It's just a fun little movie to watch with your kid. We enjoyed it.
