What just happened?

My biggest issue is the music. It's as if they were trying to force things along.

Good acting/ good Director/ .

Not a horror movie

Was expecting a horror movie but it turned out to be a thriller/drama/mystery. The acting was good though, plot has interesting twists and turns but just don't expect this to be in the horror category and it can be pretty decent to watch.

Meh, Different.

Sadly, not in a good way. It is entirely a drama, maybe, just maybe 2 or 3 horror elements thrown in there so it can cover a wider range of genres, but overall the movie is a flop.

If you are heavily into adult movies and horror, you will be disappointed. If you're a horror die fan, you'll be annoyed. And if you just want to watch something for 18 years+, you can do better! It's more of a torture porn production, with a lot of self inflicted wounds and a decent plot, surely enough, but far from being my coup of tea.

My personal vote is 4. I won't ruin it for others, but I kinda do fail seeing how this can be appreciated.

Cheers!

Unexpected treat

I started watching this movie on Netflix without having any idea what I was about, and I suspect that is the best way to watch it. Then the vampire twist part way through, while somewhat foreshadowed, is still rather surprising and pleasantly shocking.

Hannah Fierman is the stand out performer as Laura, the young woman fascinated by the drifter Carmilla (Kristen Orr in an understated performance). William Kat is the least convincing, chewing the scenery as Laura's semi-psychotic father.

The movie works in its own right as a modern Gothic, ad is also a retelling (rather loosely) of Carmilla that vampire aficionados will appreciate. The movie starts rather slow but the narrative and cinematography built towards an evocative and visually compelling ending.

Slow movie offers mood but not much more.

I never quite understood the mesmer aspect to intense love, or at least how it can be portrayed on the screen. This updates an old story and so has a bit more edginess that earlier adaptations. But ultimately it is mood over storytelling.

Anecdotes
Millarca's name is actually an anagram of the name Carmilla. It's a nod to the gothic novella Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, which featured the vampire character Carmilla who also went by the name Mircalla (another anagram of Carmilla).
