Eh, not sure Im sold on that one yet. Kinda luke warm to the whole "everybodys a vampire" idea. I kinda like my vampires lurking in the dark allies.polkaudio sound quality competitor since 2005

That's what's nice about this one, it's outside the box, something different then the typical vamp in the dark alley.If...

Thats a good point. I suppose you can only come up with so many "lurking in a dark alley" plots before they start to get old!polkaudio sound quality competitor since 2005

Precisely! Something different. Anything "out of the box" is good, especially with Vampires. They are too powerful to always remain in the dark.

I like these Omega Man/I Am Legend derivatives but unfortunately the interesting concept descends into stupidity. Okay, ok. It's not that stupid but the rush to wrap up the movie left me feeling cheated.
Bah, I may be asking too much from a modern day vampire flick but don't blame me when the movie attempted to go with a semi-intelligent story that didn't deliver, wasn't scary, and didn't have enough action.
In the end, I enjoyed seeing the world the director created but didn't care for the plot.
