Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
MisterWhiplash I wanted to give Drawing Blood the benefit of the initial doubt. The opening moments, with a naked woman sprawled out and an painter, Diana, about to paint her and then sucking her blood to drain out so she can use it for her art, give the impression that this could be a kick-ass artsy-vampire flick. Turns out this initial impression turns out false. Oh, Troma, the mark of some kind of lack of quality: sometimes they'll offer up something that is trash but funny and with at least some competence to the junk-food craft (or, sometimes not). This is a case where it's not even a whole lot of fun to watch since its attempts at humor (i.e. the protagonist's father is an old vaudevillian who does Jimmy Durante impressions?) are weak at best, and any unintentional laughs are undercut by Sergio Lapel's bargain basement direction.And it's not without him trying, oh Lord no. He does try a lot, which is a big part of the problem. He and his producers had money for lights, sure, but the way they're used in the movie made I, a former student filmmaker and aspiring director, sulking in my seat: if I saw this in a theater I would have to blind my eyes in many instances, and would wonder whether or not his DP understood really the basic 3-point lighting set-up. While this, along with a very lackluster sound design (or just lots of random loud humming like in the art gallery scene), shouldn't be something that comes to attention during a Troma release, it should be something *basic* that a filmmaker can tackle even if the script isn't very funny or scary (and it isn't) or if Lapel does a weird mixture of songs placed at bizarre moments.It's not a good movie by any stretch, and perhaps if you're a vampire die-hard (or just a vampire period) it might have some appeal as a low-rent bargain basement alternative to Near Dark, or as a slight improvement over, say, 1972's Blood Freak. You have better ways to waste your time, overall.
movieman_kev A vampire's's henchman wants to call her after falling in love with a five-dollar hooker in this extremely low-budget horror-comedy. I can't explain all the positive comments on this movie. I'll chalk it up to mass hallucination, but it's disconcerting none the less. The one redeeming factor (and this is me being extremely generous here) might be the Grandfather who's the only semi-likable character in this whole mess. Don't waste your money, or time. In fact here's a word of advice, If Troma puts it out on DVD, but does NOT make it themselves, in all likelihood it's crap.Troma DVD Extras:Commentary with Omar and Kirk; second commentary with cast and crew deleted scenes; bloopers; troma interactivity; radiation march; Clip from "Terror Firmer"; Theatrical trailer ;Trailers for "the Rowdy Girls", "Teenage Catgirls in Heat", "Cannible: The Musical", and "Toxic Avenger 4" My Grade: D
holmur This movie got it all... bad acting, music, costumes and specialeffects but this is what makes this movie worth seeing. This Troma-release is not one of their best but still better than Tromeo and Juliet! (I think that T&J sucks!) :) The good scenes in this movie all includes prostitutes, blood and vampires!
death280 This movie rocks!It has it all,full frontal nudity,blood,gore,horny old people,and of course vampires.The plot is an aspiring young artist named edmund meets another artist named diana.He falls in love with her and she reveals to him that she is a vampire.She proves this by plunging a butcher knife into her gut and making the wound instantly disappear.she tells him she wants to be together for eternity and tries to bite him.He says he likes being mortal and makes a deal with her.If he supplies her with models to paint (After she drinks their blood) using their blood to paint their corpses for an upcoming art show she has and she wont kill him.Somewhere along the line edmund goes crazy and falls in love with one of diana's would be victims.And he tries to save her,from there on the shit just hits the fan.Throw in some homeless prostitutes, a horny old guy, a friend of edmunds who wants to be a vampire,a lot of violence and blood and a whole slew of sex scenes and you'v got an awsome troma film!This movie is really funny and I highly reccomend it!
