Heavy on style, light-on in vampires!

Rating: Null/10 (25 September 2003)

Cleverly conceived and executed (pardon the pun) little confrontation between were's and vamps but what we are left with here is little more than a stylish horror tease with low grade dentures!
Basically a two hour special effect that would have been better suited to MTV than the theater. Although a long time devotee of the children of the night and their ilk, I for one am still waiting for someone to come up with a scene that betters the werewolf transformation in the original HOWLING. I mean here we are two decades on, digital technology on tap and still no one can come up with the goods. CGI just doesn't cut it. JURASSIC PARK showed what was possible, so what's happened? All we are handed these days is a MATRIX styled entertainment where fashion plays a greater role than the actors!
Bette Davis would be laughing!
