The Last Vampyre on Earth

(2013) Aeon: The Last Vampyre on Earth/ The Last Vampyre on Earth SCIENCE-FICTION DRAMA

Co-produced, co-written and directed and starring Daniel E. Falicki which the entire movie is built on a single area perhaps on a sound stage, and on a two person performance similar to a stage play. It opens with Catherine (April Basile) waking up unconscious that looked like she fell along with electronical pod/ capsules, with one of them still sealed. At one point, Catherine is a little frightened with some of the bodies that fell out, but she garners the nerve to retrieve a suitcase, and looking at the documents inside of it. And by the time that lone capsule opens, out comes a vampire like ghoul, (Daniel E. Falicki) as the difference with this vampire as the movie is called, it's that he can neither fly, and according to him not from the planet earth. And as he acknowledges Catherine's presence, for almost an entire hour and thirty-five minutes running time, this lone ghoul or vampire, or whatever you call it, attempts to manipulate Catherine to submit her blood to him, or to allow him to take her life.

Although, there are no cringe worthy scenes, it is nothing more but lectures from the actor Daniel E. Falicki and actress April Basile conversing with one another, as it is supposed to be another movie about the apocalypse, except that there are no indications that there is even one at all. And it's like Catherine neither has to eat or use the bathroom throughout the time she is with him.

OMG. The 1st 20 mins was working on open a suitcase and then a creature comes out. More walking around the warehouse. Stupid on stupid. Skip this

very cool of a concept,execution and acting are all above the line ! So miniscule set, But what is on set is amazing ..Two leads one a vampire, the other a human female not unlike Ripley from 'Aliens' franchise. So they caught they ( the dead scientists ) caught this vampyre and were experimenting ,i.e. torturing him beyond 'Water-boarding,…etc' and AT the end of the world as he breaks out of his Lab Coffin and this Last Female, okay maybe last human stumbles into his cell …a conversation and battle of wits ensues. Make-up was extreme ,But very necessary for viewers belief in tale. Set was quite sparse,But again what you needed to see was there. "Bravo" to Daniel Falicki, April Basile and Chemical Burn studios.

This is a difficult movie to review or rate. It opens with Catherine taking refuge in abandoned warehouse or military base or whatever it's supposed to be. She's fleeing from some sort of cataclysm that involves lots of explosions. She find some sort of metal cylinder that looks like it fell through when part of the ceiling collapsed and a couple of corpses. From this cylinder emerges the titular last vampyre looking very much the worse for wear.

This is a very spartan sort of movie. It takes place entirely in one, mostly bare room. There are only two characters: Catherine and The Last. That's what the character is called in the credits. Not a lot happens in the movie. Most of it is these two characters conversing about whatever cataclysm is happening outside and why it's happening. Much of that is the vampire recounting the hidden history of the Earth or, at least, his version of it. He is clearly downplaying the predatory nature of his own kind so it's unclear how reliable of a narrator he actually is. A lot of what he says is apparently supposed to sound deep and profound but is really just a lot of vague new age-y rambling. The vampire himself looks quite different from the usual movie vampire. Apparently, the military spent decades trying to kill him so he looks in terrible shape and can barely move around. I am guessing this was mainly to explain why he doesn't just kill her.

This movie was an interesting experiment but it doesn't really work for the most part. Nothing happens for most of the movie. There are only a few mild scares. There's just these two characters talking. If you aren't invested in the ongoing conversation, there's just nothing here.

Who made this, and why? Very amateurish attempt at movie-making. The films opens with lengthy credits, including, "The Talents of..." I saw very little talent. Seen on Tubi, the free streaming site; which has big budget films; and no budget films. Now Tubi has live TV. I saw no reason to finish watching this film. I'll try another selection from Tubi.
