Vamp U

Vamp U is an Indie comedy about a history professor named Wayne Gretzky, who is also a vampire. When Gretzky accidentally bites one of his students, things spiral out of control as the campus becomes overwhelmed with female vampires. Overall, it's a fun little film as long as you don't think too much about it. The cast was also pretty good, all things considered. I love the character of Wayne Gretzky. I had a professor who acted just like Gretzky when I was in college. He had the same mannerisms and everything (except he wasn't a vampire, I think), which made this film funnier to me. Also, I loved Alexis Knapp in this film. She stole the show in whatever scene she was in. Don't get me wrong. This isn't a perfect film. There are a lot of things that don't make sense. But if you need an escape from reality or just want a fun watch, this is the movie for you.

I like the new vampire movies, so this one was on my list. It's nothing like Twilight, just saying (I liked Twilight, but I know there are a lot of people who are not very fond of the whole shiny-vampire-romance). This is definitely nothing like it. I did read the review that was written here on IMDb, and so I did not expect much of it, but it was a nice movie. I had a couple of laughs, definitely did not waste my time, and there are some pretty nasty things going on, made it interesting. Couldn't help but thinking it was kinda like a mix between American Pie and Buffy. So if you like fantasy, bloodsucking hot teenage girls & bad jokes - watch it.

I am more of a British comedy fan than American, but even tho this movie has a 4, it is amusing enough if you want an airy story on a Wednesday night. It's not a big masterpiece, but for some weird reason I still enjoyed watching it. Even tho it's storyline if far beyond bad. During the movie I sometimes grew big big question marks above my head, since some scenes are too ridiculous to watch. But some of the jokes in it were actually really funny and made me laugh. I love vampire movies, even bad ones, and that is a big part of why I still recommend it to some people. Or maybe it is because it has a big what the f... factor in it. It is a bit like Sharknado: it is so weird and ridiculous that you have to watch it.

I don't think it was made to get awards. And you shouldn't go into it, thinking it did.

Everyone, especially Gary Cole, seem to be having a great time and it transfers over to the viewer. Well for me it did. I enjoyed watching it and was more entertained by this film than I do with most modern comedies. The only problem that I can see is that it doesn't know whether it want's to be a vampire spoof or just a vampire comedy or a teen vampire comedy.

I don't know what I expected from this. The vampire genre has been dying for a long time and after the Twilight Sagas and the True bloods have urinated on the grave even the comedy vampire can be laid to rest after this turgid effort. Few laughs and terrible performances (I can't call it acting as there wasn't any in the whole sorry piece - even the usually excellent Gary Cole is phoning it in here) from an entirely charisma free cast. I watched this while lying in bed due to a bad knee injury - I can assure you the pain of my knee ligaments snapping was preferable to being put through this again. Still others out there might like it.
