Vapid Crap

Rating: 1/10 (20 September 2003)

While I am not a huge fan of vampire movies, I do enjoy a good one. Unfortunately, this is not a good one. I was intrigued by the trailer and this was on my short list even though it received a one star review in USA TODAY. It is filmed in the typical modern vampire style (ie, slow motion action scenes, grimy, greasy set decoration, and "blue light"}. Kate Beckinsale, who I like as an actress, is given no memorable lines in an incomprehensible script. The action scenes are blase, the werewolves are generic and the whole thing looks like a bad mid-nineties music video. I can't reveal the ending, although I want to, to save you your nine dollars, because I walked out early. It is outrageous that this is currently rated at 7 stars. See it to see if you agree with me.
