There are worse vampire movies out there, but this is a major downgrade from the original installment, full of forgettable characters and a flat visual aesthetic.

...the film is, in the final analysis, simply unable to live up to the better-than-average standard set by its superior predecessor.

Rated: 2/4

Dark Days is hardly mediocre, but barely interesting; lacking a solid hook like the first film.

FEARnet

A clever vampire concept devolves into another chintzy 'Blade' knock-off.

Cinema Crazed

Prominent with a lagging pace, a dull atmosphere, lack of real scares, and a plot filled with holes and lapses in logic...

An engaging diversion, making the most out of its limited resources, boosted by a capable cast and some nifty make-up effects. In fact, it's a more satisfying bloodsucker yarn than the 2007 original.

Rated: B-

i just can't with this one tbh the first one is a classic tbh a true testament to its time but this one just fails at everything it does and it doesn't live up at all the first one i can always go back and watch but this one is truly so bad that i couldn't even recommend it to you even if you love vampire horror movies. its not worth your watch if you want a descent movie then just go watch the first one

DID NOT LIVE UP TO THE FIRST ONE (SPOILERS) Had potential, never lived up to it. Not the same stella (still pretty tho) We visually see eben explode into ashes in the first one but somehow she has his charred remains in the second one? They learn that only vampire blood brings them back but stella, who remains human the entire movie, is able to bring the vampire back with her human blood!?!?! They seriously had some major plot holes in this one. Corny ass long stares and overly under-budgeted dramatic cues. Under budgeted that's all I have to say

Look this film had a good premise and this franchise definitely had potential for sequels but the execution of this film and how it presented itself was straight awful.
