Rewatching it at a later date exponentially elevated my appreciation for this movie. Why? Because I went in without expectations.
Initially, it looked like a college film set with dull cinematography and awkward characters and dialogue. Six weeks later I gave it another chance, and boy I'm glad I did.
There's no denying that Pascal's "massive talent" anchors the story along. And while the script may seem weak, I changed my mind when I gave it another chance.
Pascal takes the typical bloodsucker stereotype, completely flips it upside down, and gives one of my favorite vampire performances. No brooding, no hopeless romance, no dramatic soliloquies about how humans don't deserve the life they have blah blah blah. He's a corporate sales guru high on championing a new innovative business management style: turning everyone into vampires because, apparently, they get the job done without distractions like food and sleep. If you've worked in corporate sales, your managers would maybe even consider his offer.
If you work in corporate business, this movie is for you.
