Fantastic Fest ’09 Review: Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant (2009)
Studio: Universal Pictures
Directed By: Paul Weitz
Cast: John C. Reilly, Chris Massoglia, Josh Hutcherson, Jessica Carlson, Salma Hayek
Review By: Kayley Viteo
Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant turned out to be the surprise of Fantastic Fest for me. I went solely because I love John C. Reilly, figuring, at the very least, he would be entertaining. What ended up happening is that I actually enjoyed myself at a movie aimed chiefly at the teenage crowd, which is almost unfathomable and certainly unexpected.

The MTV Movies Blog got the first look at the new poster for Daybreakers, a vampire story set in the near dystopian future, where a plague has turned most of the human population into vampires.

A vampire researcher named Edward Dalton, who refuses to drink human blood (there’s always one of those), believes he can discover a synthetic substitute that would let vampires and humans co-exist peacefully (a la True Blood). Daybreakers stars Ethan Hawke, Willem Dafoe, …

Once in a while we get a bit of news that manages to live up to the reputation we try to maintain here at Brutal As Hell, which plainly means that if my friends saw me reporting this shit, they might not be my friends any longer. C’est la vie. For better or for worse, I am a horror fiend and this kind of reporting is what I do. Go ahead. Call me a scumbag.
So what do I say about a film called “Vaginal …

Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter (2001)
Studio: Odessa Filmworks
Directed By: Lee Demarbre
Cast: Phil Caracas, Murielle Varhelyi, Maria Moulton, Tim Devries, Ian Driscoll
Review By: Brian McNail
 
JESUS CHRIST VAMPIRE HUNTER… Jesus Christ.  I have reviewed some B-Movies in my day but this was the B-Movie.  Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter is the type of movie that makes you stand up and take notice of independent horror flicks and appreciate those movies that are diamonds in the rough.  This is not one of those movies.  While this movie won several awards at film festivals it makes …

These aren’t likely to be online long. So, take a look while you can. Below are three promotional posters that are reportedly being used to sell the film in international markets. The film, directed by Matt Reeves (Cloverfield) is a remaking of the stellar and highly original Norwegian vampire film LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, a film that is nearly undisputed as being the best feature of 2008.

Review By: Sam Hawken
 
 
Vampires do not sparkle.  That said, the sparkly vampires of Stephenie Meyer’s TWILIGHT series have made vampires all the rage once again.  This is a cycle that seems to recur every twenty years or so, brought on by some piece of media that genre fans simply cannot get enough of.  Once upon a time it was Anne Rice’s turn and then a little roleplaying game called VAMPIRE: THE …
