Great Cinematography; Cheap Trick Scares; There may be a sequel

Rating: 6/10 (25 October 2007)

The cinematography was great. Even the violent scenes weren't gratuitous. However, my heart rate never rose while watching this movie. The filmmaker tried to use sudden movement to surprise the audience with gruesome scenes, but no payoff... The movie started very well, and built up my expectations for a thrilling scare fest. Unfortunately, there was no explanation of how the vamps arrived, no explanation of why the arrived, what they were doing there, how they found the place, how they survived for thousands of years, etc, etc, etc.
All in all, a good movie with decent cast, and the most savage portrayal of Vamps. However the story failed to answer many questions, ended very anti-climatic and appeared to set us up for a sequel that may explain many of the questions this film raised.
