Cult of the Vampire

Excellent new Vampire film just when I was getting frustrated with the lack of Vampire films being produced. This film gets extra kudos for the lesbian lovers, the soundtrack, Iva Stelmak, for the story starting in Paris and coming to America, for lead FEMALE power roles. I am a huge Vampire fan and this movie filled the void. Please make another one!

I enjoyed this story of rock'n'roll and love called CULT OF THE VAMPIRE. Iva Stelmak who stars as Xandra makes this movie special. She has that charisma so few actors/ actresses have today. I looked her up on IMDb and see she hasn't been in much. Hollywood needs to call her and get her into some of their big budget films. Forget Jennifer Lawrence, Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway and the rest Hollywood's chosen. I want to see Iva Stelmak in more films. I'm not the only one here seeing her star power!

My girlfriend loves this movie.. think it's a chick movie, but I dug it. Has a cool vibe, stylish Indie cool music, hot actresses that were talented.. rare thing today with these Indie films... Most of the American ones suck.. part of this film was shot in France and a lot of the cast is foreign so maybe this is an international production. When there's Vampires we end up renting no matter what... Cause we are Vampire fanatics... 7 Stars... better for woman... because it's a chick film.

Art-house Euro styled horror film with a good no-name cast. The lead actresses; Iva Stelmak and Megan Porter are perfectly cast and bring depth to their characters. The music makes this film more powerful because the lyrics tell the story as well as the dialog and actions. Pacing is fast and not predictable. It has a "Cult Classic" vibe for us Vampire aficionado's. "Cult of the Vampire" is on my list now as one of the better Vampire films the last few years.

I got a chance to watch this film last week and decided I'd write a little review here. Don't really review things but I figured maybe it's time to start support the film I find that I like since Hollywood has been oh so disappointing of late. CULT OF THE VAMPIRE is a independent film with no famous stars but it is potent and powerful in its message of Love. I think the lesbian girlfriend angles and the music world really define this film in a real and modern way. It's been done before; Vampires as rock stars, but not as good as in CULT OF THE VAMPIRE. These songs are way better than any music soundtrack I have come across. Sadly I can't seem to find this artist Cat Tasso other them one song on Itunes "I Burn" which I did buy. Hopefully she will release the other tunes for the world to enjoy. The music played an integral part in the story and the helped create the vibe, it really made the whole film work. As far as the cast, I though the leads were great. Iva Stelmak and Megan Porter were perfectly cast and had a chemistry that made the relationship feel real. I think the art direction was great. The cinematography was amazing at times but not always. The story sucked me in and before I knew it, the film ended. I wanted it to go on. Maybe a tad short in length but for me it's a tell tale sign of good filmmaking when it flies. I hate sequels but I think this film could go somewhere and tell a new story and if it does I hope they use the same cast. This is a very good film. 8 stars from me!
