Nocturna

Vampires in New Orleans, whats not to like?

Movie opens with cops & an investigation that leads them to the Vamp hangout. There is a real loose and bad storyline that unfolds. The movie description talks of a "Vampire War" which there isnt. What there is, is a power struggle between 2 families. The agression is brought on by cop and one female vampire.

I like low budget and dont mind so so acting, but the sound mixing in this movie is horribile.

The camera work & scene location is good, the directing marginal, the writing is extremely weak.

About 2/3 into the movie the look changes alittle and it has a real bad cheesy Full Moon Productions look to it. Hey, thats ok, i like Full Moon.

The entertainment value is there, visually not bad. Its hard to watch late nght as you will be up and down on the volume. I wouldn't recommed this movie & certainly would not rewatch it. I collect movies, i prefer to see one that has me buying the Blu Ray, even before its over.

Pretty decent special effects for its medium budget, and quite captivating some parts. Like,it catches you a bit, but still a huge POOR WRITING. Chaotic and confusing most of the time, it starts differently, it ends differently. Will still confuse you in some parts. The idea and concept of vampires was great and had an actually great potential, but too rushed, I could say. It's a "meh" in general,only if you accidentally come across it on TV,(like I did) it'll catch you a little, otherwise it's not really worth it.

Just watched the film on the net with friends as I love Vampire movies. This film did attract me from the beginning when a rookie defective Cody coming from an ideal world to find himself with the real face of evil. Even the wickedly force has many faces ready to attract the good spirit into devil. When fighting the vampires in order to save the children from transforming them into malignity, both defectives did great action in showing how easy human being can loose their goodness with some sort of seduction, especially when a female is involved. Each of the cast where in the right place, as few of them I remember watching their action in other films particularly Estella Warren with Sylvester Stallone in previous scripts. I got puzzled a little to know the extent of each of the vampire forces, the savage extreme and the brain driving force. The end of the film kept me wondering what next. What will happen to Cody with the attractive female vampire.

For a indie supernatural thriller it wasn't bad. The acting was ok, and the fight scenes were better than expected. There are definitely some technical and writing issues. For example, the last big action scene was a little muddy and confusing. But the basic premise kept my interest enough for me to finish the movie. I'd reccomend for a watch if you're bored and like vampire thrillers. But just keep your expectations low.

This was a fantastic film. loved the new Danny Agha, kid was amazing, also great camera work, Estella Warren was beautiful as always. looking forward to a sequel *fingers crossed. All year we've seen mirages of good films. Here is the real thing. To transport picture goers to a unique place in the glare of the earth, in the darkness of the heart—this, you realize with a gasp of joy, is what movies can do. Any review is irrelevant to this movie; it is either above criticism or beneath contempt. But for those who park their sense and sensibility at the 'plex door, there's plenty to enjoy in the performances, the rowdy innocence of the whole thing. over all I give this film 10 out 10 and would recommend it for any one who's "seen it all" and is looking for a fun little film to catch, makes great for date night and a bottle of wine.
