Blood from Stone

Blood From Stone isn't like any vampire movie I've ever seen. It has all the best elements of a vampire flick, but is reimagined in a modern way. This movie is thought provoking in so many ways; it thoughtfully shines a light on the human condition. This film is able to carry heavy existential themes with its perfect balance of humor, irony, and action. The acting is heartfelt and genuine, with just the right amount of intensity (which hasn't been achieved in many vampire flicks). Aesthetically, the film is stunning! The cinematography, lighting, and score make it so fun to watch!!!

This is not your regular cheesy vampire movie. It can get gory at times but the story is current, introspective and engaging. The actors, lead and supporting, perfect in their roles. Vanja Kapetanovic as Jure was just perfect. A muscular guy who can act?! Who would have expected that! Gabrilella and Nika definitely fits the role. The music, lighting and pacing of the story was just outstanding! The whole movie will keep you engaged.

Joe's life is falling apart. He's self-destructive, he's an alcoholic and he just followed his love, Darya, to Las Vegas to try to make things right with her. It's going about as well as you'd expect. She's had enough and calls his big sister Viktoria to come straighten him out. And that's when all hell breaks loose. You see, they're all vampires. This story unfolds at a leisurely pace, except for the murders which happen swiftly and brutally. The acting is excellent throughout and not just for the main characters, Vanja Kapetanovic, Gabriella Toth and the sublime Nika Khitrova - even the victims bring a lot of weight to their roles. This is a spare, character-driven piece, more like Let the Right One In and less like Twilight. Well-written and thoughtful with some terrific performances.

Maybe not as groundbreakingly new vision of vampires as some other reviews may lead you to believe, but still a very thoughtful and well made indie film with solid production value and great performances.

There's not necessarily a lot new here, but the genre tropes aren't the most common and they're used well. If you're a fan of vampires, or just solid character dramas, you'll likely enjoy Blood from Stone!

We cannot fail to consider the budget limit. This is not a Marvel where special effects are more valuable than acting.

This film is a gem of the genre.

It's well directed, has solid acting, good soundtrack and bold cinematography. The story is good and the characters consistent. Vanja is great and Gabriella is so cute.

How pleasant it is to see her acting. I hope she has many opportunities.

The film is a trip of surprises that shocks over time.

If you like vampire movies, go for it, he is very creative and shows what the daily life of vampires would be like surrounded by banal problems in modern times.
