better than Twilight


I'm a guy, I find all the vampire movies kinda cheesy. I like True Blood on HBO but overall that hole vampire genre is getting old. This movie was on Showtime today so I tried it out.

Comparing this to the original Twilight that came out in 2008 (and the only one that is barely watchable compared to the horrible sequels) I actually think this movie was better.

The thing that really made this movie was Christopher Lambert. He really sells the role. Awesome actor from Mortal Kombat and Highlander movies, he deserves to be in better movies than this. If the movie didn't have him to save it it probably would have been alot worse. He made the dark parts of the movie watchable and entertaining. He made a far better villain the silly kids in Twilight. Also, Irena Hoffman is hot and a far better vampire (and more serious) than the douchebag in Twilight.

The rest of the cast, pretty awful. The budget parts of the movie show and this is far from becoming a classic. But it's worth a watch for Christopher Lambert's performance and I personally liked it better than Twilight which will probably make a bigger mark in history because of its box office numbers.
