V for Vengeance

The acting isn't the best and it's cheaply made but it is what it is, overall it's moderately entertaining and passes the time, can't ask for much more really from a low budget film.

Start with a new mythos for vampires without any explanation of this. Highlight the "sexy" female vampire trope. Add in poorly choreographed and executed "wu shu (?)" Martial arts. Somehow take lame daddy joke style but twist it into girl power ideas. Add all the obvious plot twists that have been beaten to death in just about every vampire movie. Then end with the idea that more is to come (Please No!).

I gave this movie a three as the likeability if the three sisters was decent enough that I actually watched the entire film. But otherwise there isn't much joy in watching the film. It just sits heavy with its lameness.

Some things in life just don't mix. And two of those things are horror and comedy. This tries, and fails on both levels.

The wooden stakes are actually less wooden than the acting. Apart from the fish who out acted everyone in the cast. Some people say that the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer film was bad, but this makes it look positively Shakespearean!

I'm desperately trying to think of one good thing about this film. But when the best part of watching it was the end credits starting, it's fairly obvious that there's nothing good about it.

Unless you like films with bad acting, a weak script, a complete lack of direction, and losing around 90 minutes of precious life, you should probably avoid this film at all costs!

The most frightening thing about this film is that films this bad tend to become franchises. And we all know what that means..... 😱

I went into this expecting very little and it still managed to disappoint.

The daytime vampire thing sucked (pun intended) when twilight did it and is no different here. The film is about as predictsble as a train going down a single track. By 20 minutes in you can start to figure out where it's going and by 40 minutes there'll be no guess work left.

The second star was purely because the action sequences at least flowed reasonably well, nothing outstanding, but not completely dreadful either. Nothing great to say about the acting. The girls just came across as potty mouthed teenagers. It's like they tried to give them depth and a backstory but nothing felt like it mattered.

My favourite part about the film was giving it a thumbs down on Netflix.

Emma (Jocelyn Hudon) and Scarlett (Grace van Dien are two 'good' vampire sisters. On finding that their third sister Kate (Pauline Dyer) who was long thought to be dead, is in fact alive, they work hard to try and find her and reunite with her.

In the way are many 'bad' vampires who killed their parents, and are not going to give up easily.

OK the cold hard truth...this film is well worth watching just for the golden double of cuteness which is Grace van Dien and Jocelyn Hudon. They've both done better films in the past, but maybe not looked so good in them.

The story itself? It's passable, but it's delivered with a mighty dose of kitch and cuteness. It's not unwatchable at all, it's like a Nicolas Cage film that you don't want to like but you can't help thinking it was 'OK'.

I give it a solid 4 for some easy, afternoon entertainment, or something to watch with the guys.
