A Very Annoying Movie

Rating: 3/10 (4 November 2007)

I sat with glum anticipation through most of this drivel. How many times in my life must I see dumb characters sleepwalking their way to a certain death? A bunch of people trapped in an attic while vampires run loose outside: Ooh now, wouldn't it be a great idea to make a bid for freedom while it's still dark instead of sitting it out? Of course it would. The cameras are rolling, you know.
How about an old chap saying he's just going to the toilet? Of COURSE he's not going to the toilet  the lingering camera shot gives that one away! No, he's rushing outside to a stupid and pointless death.
How about a bunch of scriptwriters who say to themselves "wouldn't it be intriguing to have the dilemma of having to kill a vampire child?"? No! It's not intriguing for one moment. Every vampire should be staked through the heart at the earliest opportunity, so it's just plain annoying having the slayer pondering their guilt.
How about the lead character injecting himself with vampire blood just so he can punch the lead vampire in the throat?
Risible.
