Sombras do Terror

I found some of the other reviews on here a bit harsh. I actually quite enjoyed this one. It certainly had a bit of a retro feel to it and was tongue in cheek at times. At times sit brought to mind the Lost Boys and Fright Night, just don't over analyse too much and enjoy the ride.

It had plenty of scenes that simply didn't make sense and pretty obvious what type of things were about to happen all throughout the movie. However there was a bit of a plot twist in the end.

The two things that seemed unbearably nonsensical to me, is, (one) if you have a vampire living in your wooden shed on a farm, far away from people, why in heavens would you not set it ablaze during one of the many sunny days available?

Secondly, even though the vampire wronged the main character, the vampire seems to have a personal vendetta out for him for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

There's no backstory, so you really don't know what's the deal with the vampire population. Is it just the one at the beginning, what are the rules, etc

I liked it. Nice chilled and easy movie to watch. Wasn't anything exciting, but wasn't boring either. Gave me some Colin Farrell Fright Night vibes too

Well you know it's no good with a title like that and a rating of 15. I'm sure it's very scary if you have a Shed in the middle of nowhere and you are a kid that's not supposed to be watching it. It's a well made student movie. I'm sure they all graduated. Shows you most of the Horror techniques and overuses the Dream Sequence. Normal boring plotlines. In fact I dare say it's all been done before and better but what you going to do? It's not that bad..lol..

Too heavy on the bullying and teen angst-probably two or three scenes of desultory pity partying could have been cut out, which might have quickened the pace and brought the movie to a better conclusion. I have to wonder at those who compared this to "Fright Night" or "The Lost Boys"-the only thing in common this flick had with them is that it (eventually) has vampires in it. Very, very badly done vampires, and very cheesy makeup effects. Still, though it isn't scary in the least-it isn't terrible. I've unfortunately seen worse. Just not a repeater-once was enough.
