Marie is a vampire with a conscience: She only sucks the blood of criminals. And she has plenty to choose from on the mean streets of Pittsburgh, where a gang war is raging. But Marie slips up when she accidentally turns a violent crime lord, Sal Macelli (Robert Loggia), into one of the walking dead. To stop a takeover of the city by blood-sucking gangsters, Marie joins forces with an undercover cop (Anthony LaPaglia) who has his own score to settle.

Awkward tonal shifts and a sluggish pace plague Innocent Blood -- a horror-comedy with anemic scares and laughs.

Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: F Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Time Out Regrettably, all too often the tone lurches from stylish suspense to smart-ass in-jokiness and silly slapstick. Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Janet Maslin New York Times [An] overlong, overproduced spectacle. Rated: 2/5 May 20, 2003 Full Review Gary Wolcott Tri-City Herald Drive a nice-sized wooden stake through its heart. Rated: 2/5 Dec 14, 2023 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy An anemic effort that fails to make the most of a great hook. Rated: 2/4 Oct 3, 2021 Full Review Malcolm Johnson Hartford Courant His new film overflows with blood, but brutal cynicism, rather than innocence, reigns. May 31, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Faith B I was reminded of this randomly and finally watched it. Not sure why it’s not more popular, it’s a fun popcorn horror flick. It still feels fresh, even though it’s from the early 90s. Don Rickles’ death scene is incredible. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/14/25 Full Review Audience Member I was very surprised by this movie. The gore was top notch. There were plenty of stellar performances, particularly Robert Loggia. It's a fun horror/gangster combo. It's easy to criticize a vid with such a wacky premise, but it works, and it works damn good. 100% Fresh to me Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review steve d Parillaud makes it watchable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I REALLy enjoyed this campy movie - the performances, storyline and jokes were great, and Anne Parillaud was definitely instrumental in providing a strong lead role. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Very unique and interesting concept. There's some great bits in it, but the lead is completely unlikeable and kills any chance at getting invested in the movie. With someone else in the role, it could've been something great. The idea alone of a French vampire accidentally resurrecting a mobster to run around Pittsburgh as a creature of the night wreaking havoc, is something ripe for something fresh. There were some really great effects too. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/19/18 Full Review john l Enjoyable film... especially if you grew up eating at the Oyster House. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
