I only found about this movie, because I read something about it, in the Fangoria magazine. And I remember it was something positive about it. After watching it, I think they meant the way it was shot (for a low budget movie, the cinematography is really good and it's a shame the Dop is not in on the audio commentary, which I haven't listened to yet) and the story overall.
This is not your usual American ("and other places") horror movie. Of course you could dismiss it from the start as "artsy-fartsy". But I think you wouldn't be fair to the movie or the filmmakers. They tried hard and depending on your will (and taste), you might even really like it. Of course you have to have some patience first, before the story gets going.
But Mr. Renfield (the filmmakers doing their homework, look it up) does what he is supposed to. And while other characters seem to be bland, they're to be convincing in portraying the odd cliché here and there.
