MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

reeves2002 A few years ago I read a really good vampire novel called "Out for blood" by John Peyton Cooke, and I could not put it down.And then I heard about this movie with the same title also about Vampirism and thought it was cool that the book became a movie.It turned out that it was a different story all together and "vampires-out for blood" was not based on the book I read.But I really ended up liking the movie anyways.For a lower budget(but not too low)movie about vampires it really wasn't bad. It was easy to follow and easy to relate to and get into. I have always liked Kevin Dillon and he played the part of the cop well.This film for the budget has OK special effects and a decent storyline.I really liked how the movie played with your mind so you didn't know if what was happening to the detective was real or just in his head because of his obsession with his ex-wife and her fascination with vampires.Either way,it was an original and somewhat more believable movie with it's twist at the end.Lance Henriksen also did an outstanding job playing the skeptical police captain. The only part that wasn't really necessary was all the nudity.It would have been better if there were at least some same sex couples making out during the orgy scene as well to make it more realistic.I mean cm-on it is Los Angeles for Chrissakes!I don't think it would have hurt the movie by any means,especially this type of movie.

HumanoidOfFlesh An LAPD detective Hank Holten goes searching for a missing college girl and discovers that she has joined a commune of bloodsuckers lurking in the Los Angeles underground."Out for Blood" is as awful as the modern vampire flicks get.The concept has been done to death,our protagonist gets bitten by a vampire after visiting a rave and he is slowly transforming into vampire.There is a bit of gore including quick decapitation and the tongue bitten off by vampire,but the film is absolutely predictable with no suspense or scares.The acting is weak and the make-up of the vampires is hilarious.If you enjoyed "Dracula II:Ascension" or similar nonsensical vampire crap you may try it.I still think that watching paint dry is far more interesting than suffering through this garbage.2 out of 10 and that's being generous.

jlamb-1 I would like to know who I contact at Sci Fi to request a refund of the 2 hours of my life wasted on this movie. It was a hodge-podge of every known vampire movie cliché known to man... Have to kill the master... darn its almost sundown.. Why don't they ever find him 5 minutes after 9 am?I gotta look under the bed...ooops I'm dead.The one good point in this movie (besides the end.. not the ending but the words THE END) was the Sammy Sosa impression done to the ex-wife's boyfriend. ClassyIf anyone else hasn't seen this flick.. I envy you.

pejoratus Out For Blood (The Sci-Fi Channel edit) turned out to be enjoyable, but not as original as I had hoped. The writing was one of the two weakest points in this film, and the writing wasn't bad. The Good: The acting was more than I expected, most actors at least earned their paycheck, if not more. Kevin Dillon did a fine job and didn't over do it on the emotional side or during the vampire-ish scenes he had. Lance Henriksen actually put a bit more "emotional investment" than his role required, and it was nice to see him in a film that while "B Grade" was at least enjoyable, and also to him be cast with some dignity (Mangler 2, WTF?!!). The cinematography was fairly conservative but at the same time visually covered the visuals to adequately tell the story. The Bad: The "Essential Fiction" of the movie (Vampires stalk the Night...) seemed a bit bland, especially if you the viewer even remotely indoctrinated into Vampire Myth. Most especially if you have any knowledge of the "World Of Darkness" line of products from White Wolf Game Studios. Also the primary female antagonist's brother was annoying beyond the script, which got on my nerves. The few gory scenes that are in this movie could have been shot with a bit more "Umph". The "messy" scenes I saw were shot sort of late 80's TV style. Mind you I saw the "Edited for Sci-Fi" version the DVD version may be more hardcore, but since the violence and damage it inflicted were not even remotely the focus of the film, I doubt I missed much.The Ugly: The make up for the main antagonist was very on/off, it looked decent enough in the quality department but the execution was not all that gripping, in fact none of the full on "Vamp-Face" make up really did it for me. Also the "Big Bad's" voice is processed with quite a bit of "phlange", unfortunately said phlange is not a good thing. Think how the Cenobites sounded in the first Hellraiser film and deepen it, that is best description I give for the voice tweak they used.With the gripes pointed out above I would still recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys 80's-90's horror, especially if they enjoy the Vampire sub-genus of horror. It's no "Bram Stokers" but it's much, much better than say "Jugular Wine".
