Who knew this movie had more in common with movies like John Wick and IP man than it does Dark Shadows?
The trailers looked like the movie would be amusing, but didn't really do a good job of showing the true tone of the film. Maybe there were a lot of last min edits?
I will say that it's weird how the majority of movie surrounds a police/dead cop storyline that somehow involves dracula and the title character as well as weird addiction counseling. So some of that does seem weirdly out of place...but somehow gets a pass...if you love action comedy movies.
That's where this movie shines. Cool action scenes are plentiful early and often. Unique kill scenes and practical effects, one liners and even 80s montages!!
In the end this movie is quirky fun and fast paced. Think Edward Scissorhands meets John Wick meets Leathal Weapon.
