| 10.03.05 | DVR | Leave it to Abel Ferrara to try and mix deep philosophy with trashy exploitation. The vampire genre is used as a drug metaphor (hence the name) with rape/imposition of will overtones and plenty of philosophical aetheria thrown into the mix. The movie was pretty tedious for me, and by the end i was wishing i could watch it on fast forward and still get the sound. Lots of Ferrara regulars in it... and lots of blood which is always good, but also a lot of Lili Taylor voiceover about control, addiction, submission, nothingness, and whatever else just went in one ear and out the other. |
