Old Vampire Movies Week Wrap-up

Old VAmpire Movie Week

Hello dear visitors!
This is the wrap-up of our Old Vampire movies week.

From the five movies we watched, I only recommend these two: Near Dark (Yes!) and The Hunger.

Near Dark is a super original vampire flick that mixes "cowboys" with vampires, and I love it so much that I'm gonna have a t-shirt made with my own original design.

The Hunger is a more sophisticated movie in comparison to Near Dark. If you like vampires and want to keep it classy, this is the one to go.

Ganja & Hess has a lot to say about afro-American culture in the 70's through metaphor, but it's just a too damn boring experience for me to be interested in what it has to say.

Martin is good, mandatory for all George A. Romero fans. Not a movie for everyone.

The Fearless Vampire Killers has a nice Transylvanian look, but it's ultimately a boring experience that runs for too long. (1h48m)

Below you can find the movies ordered from best to worst according to my and Krasnaya's ratings.

Tomorrow we will let you know what our theme for next week will be. 
Have a great week!
Our blog is update everyday at 21:00 (WEST)

Frank Oz: From Worst to Best

I've finished my Frank Oz filmography a while back and hadn't had the time to post here the rank and some thoughts about his work. Let's try to refresh my memory and give you some of my opinions... man. Frank Oz is a true legend. At 81, he's not just a brilliant filmmaker but also a puppeteer and writer whose characters, from the Muppets to Sesame Street, have touched countless lives. His directing career is full of outstanding, entertaining movies; out of 14 films, there's really only one rotten apple in the bunch. I'm not sure if he's planning to make any more movies, but I'd love to see him try his hand at a serious drama, just to see him flex a different creative muscle. I wouldn't like to be that famous, I value my privacy. Mind you, Miss Piggy enjoys every moment of it. If it were not for me, she would spend all her time in the limelight. Frank OZ This is his entire fi...

I specifically chose to watch The Surfer because I was in desperate need of a fix, and this film, directed by Lorcan Finnegan, couldn't have been a more perfect vehicle for him. One of the absolute...

Top 5 - Luc Besson

Hey everyone, and welcome back! While I've been posting regularly, it took me a little while to wrap up my thoughts on Luc Besson's filmography and put together this top 5 video. It's been 384 days since my last post on this topic, so I know this video is long overdue, but I hope you'll agree that it was worth the wait! Video Format: For the Visual Film Lovers For those who prefer watching over reading, this video is an easy-to-digest introduction to Luc Besson's movies. I've been wrestling with how to present my thoughts on a director whose career, for me, went from "CinΓ©ma du look" to "cinema don't look." I apologize for the monotonous AI voice in the video; I'm just not that comfortable speaking English with my accent just yet. But...
