John D. @RT03764020 2d This was so bad that at a certain point I thought this was like "The Producers" where the creators were purposely making it bad. From the glowing crosses "throwing" vampires across the room to the main protagonists always waiting until 30 minutes to sunset to do anything. I mean its a whole different story if they were just early risers.

Even the head vampire decisions made no sense and we never even get a full understanding on what the vampires were even trying to accomplish. The story would’ve been so much better if when they turned into vampires, they kept their personalities, but we’re corrupt instead, we get mindless vampires that stand in the sunlight Even the head vampire was supposed to be this ancient being. At the end of the movie he’s in a coffin in a drive-through movie theater in the wide open. Why doesn’t he go back to the original castle or home on the hill or a cave? The logic was just terrible the beginning of the movie and up until everyone turns into vampires, except for the main characters was great because it was brutal And after one mistake you’re gone, but then all of a sudden there’s two people left and they’re able to kill a whole town full of vampires ,yeah right. I don’t know who’s writing the script but yeah, this shit sucked.

Me gusto bastante, es decente en todo lo que tiene que serlo. See more Griffith J @griffithxjohnson May 3 It’s a decent enough adaptation that I have fun with but there is a low quality feeling that I can’t quite put my finger on. The acting is very wooden across the entire cast making exposition seem unnatural & forced. The pacing is bad as it moves too quickly for the characters or plot to be earned or properly developed. The overall tone is great & does justice to King’s book as his vision is clearly present. There are some really cool moments with interesting shots & impactful kills that showcase vampires as terrifying creatures, even if it’s all underwhelming.

Even if it wasn't based off of the book, there was nothing good about the movie. It jumped around and rushed the story leaving the whole thing disjointed and hard to follow. And no, the kid was not the hero of the story like the movie made him out to be. Garbage acting. Garbage story. I dont think there is a single redeeming quality about this. See more Read all reviews
