WTF??? Matix with mad dogs

Rating: 4/10 (5 November 2003)

If it wasn't for the lead running about in PVC I'd have left early. She does a good job really, but the rest of it is pretty sorry. THe wolves do seem to be the stronger characterization although it truly comes across as a gamer script. Speaking of, wearing latex with a corset on the outside is so wannabe goth I can't stand it (and what's with the idiotic gold studded redneck shirt?) Someone's gotta teach these people how to wear black.

POSSIBLE SPOILER The secret to the film is that vampires are wimps. Apparently anyone with a gun can fight wearwolves and the vampires don't have any advantage. Once a vampire jumps and climbs on the ceiling; in the opening scene the lead jumps off a high building easily. For the rest of the movie vampires seem to forget they aren't human. Oh, look it's a werewolf, I'm scared! In one scene vampires are hunting the werewolves which easily hide right in front of them in the shadows. Apparently vampires have trouble seeing in shadows (or maybe werewolves have some power we don't know about) It's obviously some gamer role play rule that they forget to explain. (Yes, I played the vampire games and as I recall, I could see in the dark, in fact, I also could run fast) Anyway, the whole thing is a gun fight in which some people who happen to be immortal, except that they are really easy to kill fight off super werewolves (the writer must have played a werewolf in the game)
And what's with the knives? Am I to believe that vampires in this world will fall over because someone pricks them with a knife? Or is this more game play rule BS? SPOILER - the lead gets stabbed by the lead werewolf whilst driving a car and passes out from blood loss. FROM BLOOD LOSS! WTF??? She's supposed to be a vampire. For chrissake, a knife in the shoulder would only p**s off most people I know. Apparently vampires these days are particularly sensitive.
So, it's an inconsistant, uninteresting, and a cheap remake of the matrix, with mad dogs.
