Superb...

Rating: 10/10 (22 March 1999)

This movie was incredible. Everything about it. I have read the book & watched the movie. I disagree with those of you who say it should have been left alone as a book. You can't look at it as the same thing (as with all movies adapted from a book).
As for the hair... I agree that back in that time for a normal person to have the long hair it would have been absurd. These characters are not normal people. They do not walk about on the streets as other mortals. They hide in the shadows of buildings & etc. They try to keep there faces & paleness out of sight. So the gist is you can't compare it to the way it would have been.
I hate horror movies I never watch them. This was not a horror movie. I would recommend it to everyone. I gave it a 10!
