They decide not to drink blood despite their natural desire, but one day their truth is revealed. Kelly Macdonald is strong as Helen Radley. Bo Bragason is also strong as Clara Radley. Damian Lewis and the rest of the cast are pretty vague and not really present. The casting is a big mistake. The story is about a family of vampires who no longer drink human blood. The problem is that there is no story. It is more like a few days in the life of a boring vampire family. We are blabbering from scene to scene, and nothing really happens. There are constant scenes where people just look at each other or stare at the wall. Nothing happens, and no emotion is conveyed to us. People just stand or sit and do nothing for a few seconds. Aside from Helen and Clara, none of the characters really have any personality. Probably one of the worst characters I’ve seen in a long time is the pseudo-hippie vampire boss Will, also played by Damian Lewis. The character is not very well put together, and Lewis’ second-rate acting skills can do nothing for the character. So we have mostly bad actors, a bad cast, a bad script, and amateurish videography and direction. Then they say that it’s not just a horror film, it’s a comedy. I just finished watching it, and honestly, I don’t remember anything funny that happened during the entire performance. It’s almost hilarious how bad the movie is, is that what they’re trying to say? After all, the movie makes no sense. It makes no sense. It’s nothing more than a fast-paced documentary about some boring middle-class vampires going about their boring lives. It’s very tiring to watch, and when it finally ended, and the long, pointless speech ended, I said, “Finally, thank God, it’s over.” I give it a 2, and I think that’s generous.
