    Ah man, I was rooting for this
    Massive fan of vampirism, ESPECIALLY when it's a seduction type movie. The ones where I think the girl is crazy for trying to break the spell of her handsome, rich vampire interest. Girl, let him love you! Kidding!

    Anyway, the storyline was getting there, but the cheesy one liners literally ruined it all. The best friend of the girl was so cringe, I don't understand what part she did for the film, apart from being used as the black woman who makes cringey comments like they used to make black actors do in the 80's-90's, it's not clever and it's not entertaining. Stop using black people as a prop... The vampire is handsome as hell! Where the hell did he come from, he's gorgeous. I would've agreed to it all!

    Jokes aside, it had the gore, the effects and the beauty in the film, just the script and conversations in the film was empty and passionless.

    Main actress is stunning and she would've done better if they gave her lines that weren't cringe. She was in Games Of Thrones for godsake, don't make her look mediocre!

    Crapula
    Cliche ridden, predictable nonsense. Everything in this film has been done a hundred times before. It mixes bits of a dozen or so better films into a messy stew that becomes more laughable and less tolerable as it drags on. The costumes and sets are decent enough, but the script, plot and acting get very silly. If you've never seen a vampire film before then it might be entertaining, but it steals so much that anyone who is already a fan of the genre will see everything coming a mile off. On top of all this is an odd undertone of hugely outdated anti-collonialism which seems irrelevant and out of step with the rest of the tone.
