Nick O @Nicki1985 Aug 6 A unique vampire flick set to the backdrop of gritty 90’s New York City that has all right elements without being cliche or redundant. Lily Taylor shines in this frighteningly unhinged, gorgeous performance. See more John M @RT58512987 07/05/2025 Not your usual vampire flick, which makes it an enthralling movie. A terrific cast takes on the premise of peoplr who are brought into the vampiric world by virtue, in some ways, of their desire for it. This is also a world where a vampire can finish a PhD in philosophy. Philosophy is not incidental to the film as it proposes that the vampiric addiction, perhaps all of humanity has, is to sin and evil seen throughout the film in clips of mass murder or genocide victims. The end of the film raises questions for me as to whether Lily Taylor’s character is dead or alive and what that means in this film.

Love the black and white style to it gives it a Gothic look. Don’t believe the bs marketing. Christopher walken comes like the last 30 minutes of the movie they make it seem like he’s a main guy he’s not. The messaging Metaphor for about addictions to drugs and sex. also that were nothing without our desires. They drive us, but also break us. Creature of habit. The inheritance of human corruption.
