It was good I liked it a lot. Pretty impressed with the pacing of the film especially on how little development the plot had. I'm glad the movie didn't drag on like a lot of movies tend to do.

One I'd wanted to see for quite some time. A really interesting and inventive sci-fi/supernatural premise, and I was actually quite impressed by it...at least 'til the last half hour or so.

Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention at the time, but...
Spoiler for go figure:
...how the fuck did Willem Dafoe and Ethan Hawke not bleed to death/kick the bucket themselves in supplying the whole vampire race with whatever that cure was? Seeing as they were 'human' at the time and all...

lol you are so right about that. They lose steam somewhere near the end and the movie itself ended up pissing me off and hating the whole film because of how they closed it up.

Spoiler for they tried:
the "cure" was so stupid because in the process of passing it on they should be dying at the same time. I don't think they fully thought about how the "cure" should be passed on and it made no fucking sense.

Apology accepted. I do understand what you are saying though. He's a pretty great director and everything I just don't like his movies. I got caught up in the moment and felt like calling him a hack even though I know his technical skill level isn't on the level of a true hack.

Not bad they could have talked more about the music and their early lives. I did learn some new things about the band. B-

You can't go wrong with latina cheerleaders and break dancing within the first five mins. of the film.

I saw the original Friday the 13th, so cheesy and hilarious, I liked it. 8/10.

Sweet smell of success - 7/10 - Liked it, unusually acerbic dialogue for the time period. Burt Lancaster is a scene stealer.

L'avventura - 6/10 - Nice mood, got a bit bored near the end tho.

Mamma Roma - 4/10 - Passolini just doesn't agree with me, the wonderful Anna Magnani notwithstanding.

Spoiler for huh?:
I think it was to be assumed that the cure, being the very food for vamps, would be viral in its spreading. If you think about it, let's say 2 vamps feed on 1 cure. Cure dies (or even survives by luck, either way), then 2 vamps become cures. Then 4 vamps feed on those 2 cures, thus becoming cures themselves. Regardless of whether the vamps actually bleed the cures to death isn't exactly irrelevant, but even if it were, you still end up with a growing cure-to-vamp ratio. Eventually the vamps will die off simply due to the fact that an expanding percentage of their food supply are now their own cures, given the fact that the vamp-to-human ratio was expressed vividly throughout the movie anyway.

Basically, what you have, is a virus. Except the virus is the cure. The only probably downside is that by the end of it all, you'll very likely have quite a smaller population, but it's inevitable that the vamps will die off.
