Bewertung von mikepwagner
I liked this movie quite a bit -- nice alternative to the bored aristocrats. Note that it is extremely bloody, not much in the way of seduction.
And no seduction of the innocent.
I think the location speaks volumes -- this movie is not set in moldering New Orleans or some ancient castle; it is set in Las Vegas. In some way, everyone is trying to con and manipulate everyone else in Vegas, lots of transients on the run form somewhere else. The vampires fit right in.
The main characters are simultaneously charismatic and revolting. However much I was revolted by the actions of the problematic main character -- and I was repulsed -- I understood them and I had empathy for his plight.
The van[ores seemed as trapped as their victims -- which was a nice gloss.

This movie's exploration of Jewish demon mythology was entertaining and felt very original to me.
The various Shabbat prayers and the like seemed to me to be very authentic - and at least the name for the type dark magic that plays a prominent role in the movie is accurate - "Sitra Achra." I have some doubt as to whether any such book exists, but I think the general description of a set of dark sephirot that mirror the sephirot described in various works of Kabbalah were historically accurate.
I thought the actors were all very good and presented believable characters.
In short, I very much enjoyed this movie.
