and it 's bad .
it 's held up by some good performances and dazzling special effects leading up to an ending that 's pretty satisfying
.
james woods gives an outstanding performance
that almost covers up the movie .
the good side : some neat scenes of vampires and violence .
the bad : no scares .
yes
that 's right ,
even though being directed by one of horror 's most cherished directors , ' vampires ' is the least bit scary , if not at all .
james woods stars as jack
a vampire hunter out to stop the plans of the ' master ' vampire valek played by thomas ian griffith whom wants vampires to walk in the daylight .
daniel baldwin plays his sidekick montoya , a wise - cracking guy who really is n't that funny .
in the opening scene jack along with montoya and the team of vampire hunters , find an abandoned house to which vampire occupy .
of course we all know sunshine kills vampires , and that is just how they kill these vampires : hooking them to ropes and dragging them outside letting them burn to death .
after throwing a party for what happened , the vampires that did not die come back to trash it .
they kill almost all of jack 's team , leaving only a few alive .
sheryl lee plays a prostitute katrina who was bitten by valek , but not yet turned into a vampire .
she is rescued by jack and ?
flees with them on their search for valek .
they have to fight they 're way against vampires , leading up to a finale that is well - done with great special effects . '
vampires ' definately could have been done better .
the make - up , special effects and story are first rate , but there is no scares or terror that the film could have had .
it to me had more humor than horror , almost being compared to ' fright night ' with the mix of violence and comedy .
john carpenter does a great job of directing this film .
he eases through some tough times and saves the flaws , which are noticeable but forgettable .
the script is clever and funny , with many lines that make us laugh out loud .
i much enjoyed ' vampires ' with a few exceptions .
it 's one of those films you see but do n't take to heart .
you enjoy the time you spent and go on .
the recently released ' psycho ' is the same way , it 's not as good as you 'd hope
but it is fun and entertaining .
' vampires ' is a good horror flick with no scares but plenty of other content to please the viewer .
