4/10
Doesn't seem to know where to stop
19 August 2000
This movie starts off as a very old style horror movie, and I thought it was quite good and serious, until the stock(peanuts *crash*) sound effects came in and the vampire ripped off the cars door. then I gave up trying to take it to seriously. Then after a girls boyfriend has been killed and she's been raped by the vampire. A strangely believing cop takes up the case "The bodies are drained of blood, it has to be a vampire" so you think 'ah, so this is going to be about his investigation' well up till he gets his head crushed in a tomb. Then we get to the woman who was raped having a vampire baby, so you think 'Ah so this is going to be about the raising of a vampire kid' well, then we cut to him and he's about 30. Hmm, now we get to the actual plot, where he goes in search of his father, to kill him. Well after a load of stupid people get their necks bitten we get to the final confrontation(which is about the time the movie actually starts getting good) then it's all over except for the stupidest yet most predictable twist ever. This would be okay as a 'watch with mates when you're drunk' movie but as a piece of entertainment on it's own it's not much cop. Except that is you want to waste a bit of time watching and laughing at bad vampire teeth and badly written characters. 2/10
