Leave your poor cats out of it, man! (spoiler)

Now, this seemed like a decent movie at first, mainly for the use of color and certain shots. I was totally fine with the main characters killing fat nerds and completely eating their former friend - more power to them. Hell, let em kill a wheelchair-bound little girl, or even a bus full of Christians.

But dragging the guy's poor innocent cats into the mix? Completely unacceptable. From that moment on, I decided that I hated the movie, and the main characters. After the ENTIRE BODY'S WORTH of blood and flesh they just got done with, what good would two poor little cats have done? Now, I usually like vampires - pretty stand up bunch - but I was so glad to see them burn.

Anyway, rant over. Be kind to animals. :)

I'm with you. They make a big deal of wanting to save the world from the awful vampires in this movie, but after making a fuss about "gotta feed the cats" they end up killing them?

Movie wasn't good anyway but that bit really turned me off and I had no sympathy left for the main characters at that point.

I had an eww! moment too and I have three kitties, but the blood made them sick so the cats got their revenge.

I am a cat lover. I hate it when animals get harmed in horror movies, but I think they did have a good point to using it. It showed they really couldn't live off of animal blood and be happy.

I really disliked the movie, but yes, let's not forget the point that they were trying to find a substitute for human blood.🐭
