winter_elfAfter being a little nervous on this ones marketing as a 'horror', I had to ask someone first before going, even though I was curious.
Actually, this was pretty much a straight action/adventure with a supernatural element. Nothing to much more than you'd see in any episode of the Supernatural TV show (if they had the budget for CGI Vampires that is!) Which is what I was hoping for.
I really liked the movie - but then I LOVE character angst (whoo boy - angst, angst, angst!) and cool action/fights. Also throw in the Distopic/apocalyptic society and going against the 'overlords' trope (the Church in this case), and I'm happy. I enjoyed the fights, loved the stoic/angsty main character and found the story simple but satisfying.
A good solid 'B' movie.
