Hmmm

Rating: 4/10 (9 November 2004)

Well I must confess I read some of the reviews of this film before I seen it, and I have to agree with a lot of them. I didn't feel 'offended' watching it, but.....it could of been a lot better.
There seems to be a disagreement though whether the film was supposed to be a family horror romp, or a stylish legend thriller. I hope that the director had 'tongue-in-cheek' in mind when he was creating this... because if he didn't....
I quite like sort of vampires and stuff so that dragged this film up to a 4 for me = just enjoyable and no more. I thought the acting was alright but the story was just too much at times. I think the director just crammed in too many characters; vampires, werewolves, frankensteins and a whole host of other stuff.
The standout aspect for me though, which I believe does deserve to be congratulated is the sets/location-cgi. I thought it really did have a cold east-European feel and that quite probably made it better.
4/10... sorry.
