The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I just got back from seeing it with my wife.
Now...I never read the comic, when I found out the movie was being made...I decided to hold off reading it so that it would not taint the way that I viewed the film.

That being said, overall....we enjoyed it. Nice cinematography, great mood, very cool special effects, clean and simple story line, but it works well with the film. It moves at a pretty good pace with plenty of startling scares that may make you jump (I did several times). These are probably the creepiest vampires I have ever seen....the unusual design was really a nice take on making the vampires seem fresh and new.

Now, like I said...over all...it is a fun and enjoyable film....my only gripe was with the climax (I won't blow it for any of you waiting to see the film), but something about the climax just didn't sit well with me...other than that...two thumbs up!

Very nice review that I agree with. I thought the climax was neither bad nor good. I will probably go see this again in the theater because I liked it that much.
You are also right the vampires are awesome. It is just a well done horror movie, not perfect, but very good.

Great popcorn flick....I will definitely buy this when it comes out on DVD, I see myself watching this a few times, LOL!

I think the worst thing about the movie....is now I want those darn Gentle Giant statues based on the film. Sigh................
