A glorious mockumentary

Rating: 7/10 (6 January 2017)

"New Zealand Director Taika Waititi delivers together with his longtime partner a very fresh take on the vampire genre." Thats the last thing Mr. Waititi would like to read about this feature. It is so much more. Foremost it's a hilarious comedy with a very unique Style. Its not a horror film or anything the title might suggest. Waititi once said in an interview at the festival de Cannes, that they just tried to make it as funny as possible. And the amazing thing is that it doesn't feel like some one is trying to hard to be funny. Its a very well balanced firework of subtle gags. It captures you from the start. Not because of its suspense but with its great atmosphere, characters and especially because you will think "what the **** am I watching" but in a good way. A very good way.
