Kestutis D Manage your expectations. It looks like a student film. The quality of the film stock is cheap (some call it retro, but it doesn't really serve an artistic purpose), the story and cinematography are not particularly well-crafted either. The one redeeming quality is the thematic/dramatic element of caring for a loved one so much that you can't resist embracing them, even when they have turned into a zombie. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/28/24 Full Review Joel P Whoa, take it easy folks; it ain't that great. It's charming and quirky and the father's appearance is disturbing (puppet?CGI?both?) but that's about it. It's not worth a re-watch. I would have given it 3 stars had they made the character of Sdenka attractive to look at (maybe a different (sexier)actress too. Sdenka was ghastly to behold; no Frenchy would have been smitten by her. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/10/24 Full Review Alec B The movie does a great job of invoking an older style of low budget filmmaking. I like the puppet but we probably see too much of it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review Honest D A great folk horror dark comedy with a pretty nasty surprise at the end. I loved it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/13/24 Full Review Jon L Different take on traditional vampires. The puppet was definitely unsettling. Worth a watch for sure.
