    Though the title is misleading, this is still an interesting film. It deals more with the idea of a serial killer rather than the vampire legend. The acting is good and the young cast is sincere in their efforts. The biggest problem with it as a film is the length. The story takes too long to unfold and more than a few scenes are irrelevant to the plot. Worth watching as a rental but requires patience.
  • HORRIBLE!!

    This movie is not horror. It is sappy and crude. Don't waste your money it is so boring and ridiculous.

    This title, picture and description are extremely misleading. I am very disappointed that I wasted my money on this movie. This is not a Vampire Horror movie. You people should be more honest about this. I feel completely ripped off and lied to.
  • An interesting take on the Vampire genre

    I have to say that this movie is very Japanese; everything about it from the directorial style to the script is very different from what you would find in a Western film. that being said, I wanted to know how everything wrapped up in the end. The characters were interesting, and although the film was very slow, it made appreciating the nuances in the script that much easier. Do not watch if you have little patience. This movie is an art film in every sense of the word.
  • Very good

    Really enjoyed this. The lead character was two people in one body battling for sanity. Well done. I wasn't left cliff hanging no where throughout the movie, it completely had me hooked from start to finish. Five stars all the way.
