HollyBlood

Hollyblood is full of clichés from the vampire subgenre and has to deal with actors who are forced to portray characters that they don't fit at all. For example the main character Javi is played by a good looking dude who seems to be the complete opposite of what his character is supposed to be, a shy and nerdy weird dude with no confidence at all. There are other characters that I think were miscast, because the acting in general was not convincing, especially from our main protagonist. The movie also leans a lot towards the comedy genre and while some jokes or characters really worked in that aspect many of the scenes were just straight up unfunny. I personally really enjoyed the scenes with our protagonists father and some scenes with the young Van Helsing wannabe. And in general I thought some of the characters, even though they were really cliched were at points interesting. But overall the movie was more of a teen drama with some comedy aspects than a horror movie and like I said there were many aspects of the movie that didn't work for me and took a lot from the overall enjoyment. Only recommend if you are a hardcore vampire comedy movie fan. [4,3/10]

IT is honestly not the best movie out there. Far from it, but it is very much so no trying to be. What it is however is just plain dumb fun and silliness/goofiness. I went in with no real expectation and it was a real fun watch.

I can whole-heartedly recommend this film as a watch for anyone into movies so "bad" they are good because this is just 100% the perfect fit for that. The actors do a good job but the casting seems to purposefully have been done in a way that mocks the usual casting of teenagers in Hollywood (Clearly Adults with 5 o'clock shadows and what not).

TLDR Goofy, funny and certainly worth a watch (at the very least for people who enjoy movies that do not take themselves too seriously)

I watched it in English which honestly just added to the comedic effect in my opinion (OG in Spanish)

Really really good movie and a lot of teenagers, maybe too much and that can be a problem. The film was born and grows as a parody of the classic films with teenage vampires and in this it succeeds magnificently by stealing in full all the stuff that makes those types of films ridiculous, in addition to this the film manages well to be a comedy in its own right thanks to several comic shoulders and situations that make you laugh and smile. Apart from this, however, the film is very trivial and in more than one point it is slightly too over the top and difficult to accept for how the situation is posed. Ultimately, however, the film does exactly what it has to do, entertains and entertains.

Tonight I decided to watch something silly whilst the football was on. I settled on Hollyblood. I'd had it on my watch list for a while, but kept putting it off because I wasn't in the mood for a silly horror film. It was silly, very very silly. Its a film that has a parody of a film in it, the titular Hollyblood. The scene from that are cringeworth, but also in some parts laugh out loud funny. Its clear from the outset that Hollyblood is a spoof of Twilight, and thankfully it only shows us two scenes (one where the main male characters are shirtless and growling at each other). Getting into the film itself, its about a girl (Sara) who loves Vampires, a new boy (Javi) who likes her and a hapless Vampire hunter. The script itself isn't the best, and the acting is patchy but the scenes between Javi and his Dad are pretty funny, just bordering on cringeworthy.

It's a parody of Twilight that arrives about a decade after Twilight stopped being relevant. Since Twilight's already been parodied ad nauseum the basic premise of this movie instantly feels a bit stale. The cast is affable and there are some funny moments, although they're too few and far between to sustain any kind of comedic momentum. (To be fair I watched with English subtitles, which undoubtedly threw off the timing of some of the dialogue-based humor.) The movie doesn't quite manage either the outright silliness or the sharpness its concept demands. Too often it feels like a straight remake of a teen romcom rather than either a zany send-up or a subversive indictment.
