Some of this looks fantastic. But when Willem Dafoe comes in with the crossbow it looks like a Blade/Underworld type vampire movie. That sucks. Without it it looks really interesting. Like Dark City with vampires.

That looks pretty damn cool. Recently Hollywood is OD'ing audiences on vampires, thanks in part to the success of Twilight.

Taking the vampire concept, humanzing it into a human tragedy is stuff that hasn't been seen in that genre since Forever Knight.

This could be an engrossing vampire drama for adults, rather than the teeny bop shit out there right now.

Sam Neill is a nice addition to that cast. I don't see him at all anymore, and he was always a vastly underrated actor.

*fingers crossed*

Never been a fan of the vampire genre. My favorite vampire flick is Near Dark. Looking forward to Chan Wook Park's flick Thirst though.

Me neither. Short of Forever Knight, i'm not a vampire guy either.

Much more of a 'werewolf' fan myself.
