Dampyr (2022)
5/10
interesting film
24 August 2023
Dampir is an interesting film, although not spectacular at all.

As far as I understand from the Italian director, the action is related to Serbs, who in some sense are rarely portrayed positively in films (by uniform and names).

Dampir, Kurjak (it's another name for wolf in Serbian) and the vampire Tesla are also Serbs.

Tesla is an exclusively Serbian surname.

I admit that I was not familiar with this comic book character "Dampir", although I found on the net that he has a larger audience and greater popularity.

The main characters; both positive and negative, they are great in their acting, as well as the direction itself.

Plot as plot, it's chewed over too much, and the actors pretty much pulled out the dynamics of the film.

The film is not a classic horror, but a kind of action sf that leans towards the theme of horror, except that there is nothing scary.

Personally, I am disgusted by the use of violent conversion of victims in this type of films, because without the consent of free will in anything, there is no essential determination.

I would also add that deviating from the basic principle that the devil and his servants fear the Cross and God, the meaning of the distinction between good and evil is lost.

Vampires vs. Vampires and witches, ... who cares about that nonsense on the evil side.

It's like if normal people were bombarded with narratives about the struggle of mafia clans and cartels.

I want to say that we are not interested in the internal struggles of criminals and that this information scares us.

Analogously, the wars that are waged in movies between vampires and demons are dull and boring.

The script is often stupid.

In this film, it can pass that it is well based on human nature, however, the film itself is shallow in terms of script.

Once again, congratulations to the actors.
