Cronenberg = Savior
29 November 2001
I enjoyed this film. Without David Cronenberg... I would consider it a decent amateur effort, but this film ascends higher than that just because of his few little cameos. The Berzins screenplay is well written... he puts a unique spin on the generic vampire tale.

But, with the exception of Cronenberg... the acting is all subpar, if not below. Justin Louis is absolutely PAINFUL to watch with his ultra pseudo-Spanish accent (or is that Spanish?). One can only take his screen presence for so long. I guess Gordon Currie is decent enough as Boya, but nothing to rave about.

Overall though, it was well filmed and executed. Worth watching just for the Cronenberg cameos!
