LOL! Yeah, I've heard that Dario Argento's Dracula is simply awful... But I gotta say...I'm really amused by the praying mantis CGI...
SO last night I watched
Only Lovers Left Alive (2013)
In short, I really loved it - It's beautiful, meticulous, and moody, colorful vignettes - This version of the vampire story tells it from the perspective of vampires who are almost too long for this world, suffering from beautiful ennui.
Tilda Swinton was absolutely stunning - Like a China doll out of time... And Tom Hiddleston was beautiful and perfect as the beautiful and suicidal aging rocker...
My only complaint (POTENTIAL SPOILERS)...
Part of what should be one of the more interesting parts of this movie is how this couple has influenced famous figures in history... For example - Christopher Marlow is actually a character... Which is a bit on the nose when it comes to saying HEY THESE GUYS HAVE BEEN WITH FAMOUS FOLKS IN HISTORY - I'm not a huge fan of wrapping famous icons into movies unless its done well... It would have been a bit better if, say, they referred to him just as "Kit" and his history as Marlow just unraveled slowly and was a fun reveal in the end...
A minor complaint; I really did love this.
