  1. Quality
  2. Great 4.0

    A bullied twelve year-old boy befriends a vampire-girl, who’s guardian needs to be a serial killer at night in order to feed her. Now that’s a horror movie! Nasty bullying scenes quickly put you on Owen’s side about wanting to hurt them — bad. You also quickly gain an affinity towards the girl, even when she turns in to a grotesque vampire at feeding time Although her guardian is doing most of the dirty-work, you sort of sympathise with his need to keep his trustee alive, er, dead. As the story progresses, you figure out what the logical conclusion is going to be – but it still feels like a twist of irony, and it still holds plenty of surprises. This is a great movie with a unique twist on the old horror subject of vampires. Not to be missed!

  3. Very Good 3.5

    Kodi Smit-McPhee is really good as the vampire befriending boy. Mature for his age – and convincingly so as he contemplates his new-found friendship. Equally good is Chloe Grace Moetz as the vampire herself. With Kodi, she shows her softer side — but when she smells blood, watch out!

  4. Male Stars Very Good 3.5
  5. Female Stars Very Good 3.5
  6. Female Costars Very Good 3.5
  7. Male Costars Very Good 3.5
  8. Great 4.0

    Just a great movie overall. Great story with a unique flavor, great acting talent, and enough drama and tension to really keep you on your toes.

  9. Direction Great 4.0
  10. Play Great 4.0
  11. Music Great 4.0
  12. Visuals Great 4.0
  13. Content
  14. Horrid 3.6

    The violence will surprise you. And what surprises you more, is that you still like the vampire after it!

  15. Sex Lewd 3.6
  16. Violence Savage 3.6
  17. Rudeness Nasty 3.6
  18. Supernatural 4.0
  19. Circumstantial Supernatural 4.0
  20. Biological Supernatural 4.0
  21. Physical Supernatural 4.0

Now I’ve got to see this one also. Recently watched the Swedish original and loved it.
