Tom F @RT55173143 Jun 5 Nicely strange with a curious take on vampire lore, but mostly a mess. See more Farah R. @Farah Feb 21 I nearly fell asleep five times while watching this movie. The story is utterly dull and nothing makes sense. Thank God Susan Sarandon was in it because she was the only one doing any acting. See more Robat H @Batbat Feb 14 Always loved how this movie gives you snippets of ancient times and the history of the characters without spelling it out. The pain of loss and ageing and disease and abandonment is played so beautifully by Bowie. Love the music, the lighting, the editing and the coolness of the film. A fresh take on the vampire myth and although very 80's which I am not complaining about it still feels really fresh today See more Ari V @RT59419633 Jan 23 A pretty unusual and well executed take on old themes. Solid staying power and timeless feel. See more mark g @Mark_Alan_G. Nov 23 This movie was made during the breakout of MTV. Music videos were the rage and style over took substance by a wide margin. This film embodied that 1983 look, right down to starring David Bowie and featuring Peter Murphy and Bauhaus in the opening scene. Every shot is shadows, blue light, wind blowing, etc.. It is a very slick looking film. The only knock would be that the entire film is merely visual, choreographed style. There isn't anything in the way of memorable dialogue or lines, just tight shots and blue light. To be honest, it's the type of movie you put on a big screen while hosting a party, mute the audio, turn off the lights (except the blue ones), and blast some Bauhaus or Berlin recordings from Bowie. See more Alejandro B @Velero Sep 8 Very atmospheric, and dark. A tale about the longing for prevalence and the will to survive at all costs. It could have been armed better, but it is a fine watch nonetheless. See more Read all reviews
