What a BORING, NOTmosphere of a film...didn't even watch long enough to figure out if it was better'n the first one or not, don't really care to either.
Yeah, I would suggest continuing it. The first half hour is really boring, but it does get good!

A slow, ultra-cheap vampire movie. It's kinda fun! Almost two hours long, very talky, and not as gory as Lewis's big gore films like Blood Feast or 2000 Maniacs, but it has some interesting stuff going on.
i couldnt watch it. ive had several attempts, but its SO SLOW!

i think the problem was the cast.

the story and effects were ok ... i wasnt expecting much in the first place ... but i found the cast - every on of them - to be impossibly unengaging - i couldnt care less if any of them lived or died.

i did like the approach the film took this time where no one was buddies with anyone else this time. a far more brutal film than the 1st.

My feelings exactly.

The characterisation in the scripts was the biggest drawback of the movie...otherwise it was really engaging from after the first 25-30 mins till the end.

It was a notch above AvP thats for sure. They need a good script writer for the third one, if they ever make it.

I wonder if Sean is available...

La Haine (1995)

Avi, Fortunato, Rod...hell, anyone who hasn't seen this movie needs to do so immediately. Powerful, gritty, stylish stuff.
