Alice and the Vampire Queen

Okay, so I'm a big fan of anything that deal with vampires, first off. This is a great vampire film made for a modest budget. I never thought a film that has a main character being a chef for a vampire queen would be interesting but I was surprised. Indie filmmaking at its best. The vampires were perfectly cast too. That one vampire gave me the creeps! Ugh! The vampire queen was great. Loved her accent too. The only thing I wish they had was a larger budget to make some of the effects realer as some of them did look low budget/little cheesy. I'm excited to see if there will be a sequel for this.

The Plot:Alice Oldman is an ex-con struggling to overcome the scars from her past. Then one night a dark stranger gives her an offer she cannot refuse. Make one special dish for his boss, the Vampire Queen.

The ONLY reason I decided to stream it was the high rating here.

Well from the very first frame that lights up the screen I knew I was in for a ride. And not a good one.

The quality of the production is C level at best. And, trust me, it's all downhill from there. The acting is an F at best. These people could not act their way out of a paper bag.

Every vampire -- and there are a lot of them -- think that showing their fangs in an elaborate burlesque way, is acting.

Reality Check: It's not.

The year is young, but this is the worst film I've seen so far. Don't bother. The great reviews aren't real.

I saw this movie at the premier when my band, The Real Fugitives, was invited because of two songs that we have placed in the movie. I was pleasantly surprised. I expected a good movie, but what I got instead was a GREAT movie! The plot diverts from the usual blood and gore vampire movie and offers the audience a unique take on vampire "life." There are even a good number of chuckles sprinkled in to make it even more entertaining. The acting is top notch! The actors are believable in their roles and the performances are delivered with great expertise and a very real feel. This movie is well worth seeing, and it's memorable. It occurred to me later that night that all me and my date talked about on the way home was the movie. Check it out. You' won't be disappointed.

Creative modern day vampire film with an NCIS type of back story intertwined as the viewer perceives what is good and evil throughout the entire film. The women are attractive, seductive, and engaging characters that have their unique privileged and private vampire world with all of their endearing love for each other, and lust for blood and power too. Alice's character is relatable, creative, inspiring, and her culinary skills are put to the test, as her questionable evil past is revealed, and incorporated into her current state, serving the Vampire Queen. You can feel her emotions throughout her journey in this film in her efforts to do what she believes is right for herself. The strategic placement of the music emphasizes the passion of the characters in this delightful film. .

Apparently Vampires "like the Rot" for taste. "Know your audience, Chef" the limey says to his chef to the vamps. This movie seems to know its audience and plays up the vampire lore with a new twist - a chef makes raw meat dishes for vampires. The movie works as a thriller about a trapped person with no options using her wits and blood and gore to escape an unthinkable situation. All things considered. The lead actresss makes the movie work she is engaging and have amazing eyes. A real broken person taking charge of her life situation in the horror genre. Worth a late night watch - just leave a light on.
