Lack of good storyline.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Have the director/editor/producer/writer etc actually realised what a complete pile of **** they have produced.. honestly i have no words to describe the complete and utter dismal absurdity and awfulness of this joke.. I'm not going even going to refer to it as a film because people have strapped video cameras to wild animals and produced more entertaining pieces of film..where do i begin!? the whole thing with the white guy in the baby suit?!!? what?!? the 'gun fights' which produced no noise, blood, sound, smoke... oh wait.. there was a popping noise that seemed to go off every now and then....was that relevant or was it some errand boy opening a packet of crisps offstage? some black guy with a plastic dolls hand (which appears everywhere, in every single scene) randomly licking strawberry syrup off a paper plate?!!? some woman in a wheel chair!? general pointless running into buildings which have coloured lamps in each room!? there is no obvious plot, horrific script (i think most of it was improv.. not that it shows or anything), stupid effects that I'm sure have been created random using tat from a corner shop, i think most of the costume (ie. vampire teeth, some amulet) came out of Christmas crackers. the Video camera skills are similar to that seen on You've Been Framed, no evident 'acting' to speak of, just monotonous pointless talking/rambling.OK what else... honestly i don't even know why I'm wasting my time writing this, please just heed my warnings!! this film is NOT so bad its funny. it goes past that because the cast and crew are actually taking this seriously! i laughed for 1/4 quarter of it.. then i just got disgusted and bored. I'm glad i didn't pay money for this sorry excuse for a 'ghetto vampire film' AND MAKE SURE YOU Don't EITHER!!! bye bye (^_^)

Typically when sitting down to watch a low budget film, I have low expectations. This didn't even meet those. I think the DVD distribution cost more than the entire budget for the film.First off the acting was straight out of a high school play. I can't figure out how you could let some of those scenes through. No one had a decent scene in the entire movie (that's not a joke).OK, it's about vampires; you're not really looking for acting anyway. The special effects, well, also left over from a high school play, and in some cases condiments from lunch. The fight scenes were poorly choreographed and terribly acted out. The gun play is even worse. Look for the CG muzzle flares, big money.Finally, the story
garbage. I've seen 3rd grade kids write better plot lines and dialog (especially involving vampires). It would have been OK had they totally cheesed out and went for comedy, but it's not. It's an attempt at some serious scenes. It's uncomfortably bad, you can't laugh at it, but it's so very terrible.Stay away from this one, total waste of 2 hours.

This movie is so freaking hilarious. People, please realize that this film was not meant to be serious. The FUBU-wearing main vampire, Khalil, is probably the funniest character in the movie. It's so funny when he falls out of character and improvises his lines with some ghetto-speak that you would hear from some dude straight out of the hood versus a sapient, well-read vampire.Furthermore, The "VAMPIRE HUNTERS" in the movie are rather young for seasoned vampire exterminators. I guess there was a job fair targeting teenage blacks and Puerto Ricans in the inner city of New Jersey who were interested in joining the vampire slayer industry. Blade would be proud. Also, I did not know people had strawberry syrup for blood until I watched this film. I must revisit my studies of human biology. Please, get drunk and then watch this movie.It's a classic and belongs in every college dorm room across the country. 2 thumbs up.

Generally, even in the worst of films, I can find something positive to say - i.e. with 30 Years To Life, it had a good plot, with several unbelievable aspects to it, but it was good overall with decent acting. Like most viewers, I got sucked in by the box art, which promised a Blade-esque Black vampire flick. Well this movie is no Blade. This movie isn't even a *dull* Blade. This is easily one of the worst movies I have seen this year.The nicest thing I can say about it is that the music was pretty good - generally Hip-Hop soundtracks are limited at best, but the songs fit the movie well. Also, I really *liked* the in-jail sequence early in the movie, although the way it was shot makes it seem the character was only in jail in his mind (or its the world's least populated jail).Which makes the rest of the movie that much harder to bear. After the decent setup (the two main characters hit-and-run a girl after a botched robbery) the movie goes downhill, with bad special effects (forgivable with good writing/plot - see the Doctor Who TV series), bad writing (the interrogation scene with the baseball being the one exception - small flash of brilliance there!), bad editing (wait is he going up the stairs? down the stairs? Is there a room *on* the stairs, wait, somebody is shooting? What happened to the other guy on the stairs?), inane character actions(he gets the bling and WALKS DOWN THE STREET WITH IT *boggle*), unintentionally comical scenes (when the main vampire gets exposed to sunlight and dam near does the Harlem Shake or the levitating wheelchair scene at the end that should have been very emotional - and *would* have been in a better-written movie), feeble attempts at comic relief (the character that helped the main vampire or the throwaway line about the rap song when the two Vampire-hunter characters are in the car), horribly-shot action scenes (the final blurry, mis-edited fight scene) *sigh*Look, just avoid this one like the plague. I hope that the filmmakers take the time to study some more action flicks and improve their craft - I saw some good ideas at work in this movie, but they were ruined by really really really faulty execution.
