Review: I had already seen this movie at the Munich Fantasy Filmfest 2010 ( MFFF2010 ), and it was nice to see it again. I was surprised to learn that the 35-year old writer-director is also acting and has composed and played the soundtrack, for a movie that gathers many famous rock stars!! I don't know how he managed it. And the movie is quite good too. It starts slowly, but before you get bored the rythms speeds up and it gets better and better, meaning more fun, gore and rock'n'roll as the movie goes. The music stars in small roles are also quite good and funny. Malcolm McDowell is excellent in his role of vampire-hunter, that fits his age as well as the roles he had in the recent Doomsday and Halloween. In a flashback we see him at the age 30, and I found out later that they used some scenes of his 1974 movie O'Lucky Man! for this scene, which is a great idea. |
