      Steve D The script is brain-dead. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Honestly, it was a little weird & cheesy, but I oddly enough really enjoyed the film. The casting was interesting... plus I'm a sucker for Ralph Macchio on film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review william s Never knew droll to work but it does here.A lo-fi satire that slowly rakes you in. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review darin c Very silly and not what I expected. I watched this when I was sick and it made me happy.

      Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Starts off feeling clever and original but turns silly and diffused as its convoluted story spins out. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 16, 2010 Full Review Michelle Orange Village Voice All of the riffs are twice and thrice removed, but the effect is lively rather than tiresome, largely on the strength of game performances, Sean Lennon's atmospheric score, and writer/director Jordan Galland's clear affection for his sources. Jun 15, 2010 Full Review Mike Hale New York Times A toothless satire whose targets include vampire mania, low-rent theater, indie romantic comedies, Scorsese, Shakespeare and Law & Order, it plays like a Web series expanded to feature length. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 4, 2010 Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row A good idea in search of a good film that comes up completely empty handed. Rated: .5/4 Aug 5, 2019 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed A delightful mix of intelligence, hilarity, scares and unbridled talent... Sep 30, 2010 Full Review Joe Lozito Big Picture Big Sound A clever title in search of a movie to support it, this playful mash-up of Shakespeare and vampires aims for the type of brain-twisting meta-plot that Charlie Kaufman has all but monopolized. Mr. Kaufman makes it look easy. It's not. Rated: 2/4 Jun 14, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews
