What were they thinking of?
28 January 2000
What happened to this film? Lots of hype about a new British vampire film had lots of people excited. Then came the release date. No-one could find it. We wondered why. Then we saw it. We realised why - it's awful.

The acting smells, the script smells, the lighting is awful. The story is interesting at times, but hardly original. The sadly departed David Warbeck makes his final appearance, and Eileen Daly takes her clothes off. Those final two points are the only good points about the film.

If you're going to hype a film, make sure that you actually have a film people might want to see. I've read a lot of comments rubbishing lots of things about this film, but then going on to completely ignore those things in order to try and tell us that this is a good film.

I wanted to like it, I tried to like it, but folks, I couldn't like it. It's impossible to like a film like this. Even the gore was minimal, which could have been in it's favour.

Oh, and please let's have no more Mario Bava or Lucio Fulci comparisons. That's a really nasty thing to say about two of the Italian horror industry's better directors. They can't even answer back.
