Harockerce What a beautiful movie!

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

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.

MartinHafer The South Korean show Vampire Prosecutor is definitely odd. In many ways, it reminds me of the TV shows Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, CSI as well as Hannibal! The show has an ensemble cast that investigate murders and it's led by Min Tae-yeon—a prosecutor AND vampire! I have no idea if lawyers actually investigate cases line Min in South Korea, but he certainly does. When he visits the crime scenes he's able to smell or taste the blood and see in his mind how the murders occurred—a bit like how Will is able to channel the murders on Hannibal. In addition to him, the team is also made up of three others—the detective Hwang Soon-bum, rookie prosecutor Yoo Jung-in and an intern, Choi Dong- man. These folks are a nice addition and the ensemble cast reminds me so much of the Law & Order franchise—as does the way the cases are investigated and prosecuted. And, the heavy use of forensics in the show is like seeing an installment of CSI.Now you'd THINK that the show might be a bit like Twilight or Dracula but it's really like neither. This vampire does NOT sleep in coffins nor does he attack folks nor does he avoid the daylight like 'ol Drac but he also is NOT a sparkly, angst-ridden guy à la Twilight! He's unique and quite professional—a lawyer through and through. Plus, now that I think about it, how different are vampires from lawyers anyways? They both are blood-suckers!If all this isn't enough, the show is very well made. It's incredibly stylish, well written and kept my interest. If you like the shows I mentioned above or are really into Asian cinema, it certainly is well worth your time seeking out this unusual show. Finding it isn't easy. The season 1 DVDs are, oddly, $138 on Amazon! And, only season two is on Netflix (wow…that's really helpful!!). Fortunately, it IS available through Hulu and Hulu Plus—and might just make it worth subscribing to the service.

Aria Ariana When I watch the casts' interview on TV promoting their drama, I was a little bit skeptical. I mean, really, how could I not? With Twilight movie franchises, Vampire Diaries and The Originals are currently dominating the world.What made tempt to watch this is because I've run out of K-drama to watch. Such a pitiful excuse.So, what started as let just watch this because I don't have anything else to watch turn into a binge-watching show time. I finish the 2 seasons in 2 days. What fair Vampire Prosecutor from other vampire storyline is that it is Asian-flavored. Instead of diving into a whole lot of historical existence, the story go its own way.Since every episode deal with a different case, the story managed to be different every time. They threw in dramatic-thriller, romance and comedy along the way.I have to conclude this with 7 because I want too see more romance or bromance. Also wish to see their acting gets better.

FilmExpertWannabe In 2011, Vampire Prosecutor surprised many with its rather unique story of a man who became a vampire. But even in the portrayal of the story we see elements we don't often see in Kdramas; little things like consistently appropriate music, superior lighting for the scenery that makes it look higher production, and a very cool opening title sequence (not that they're usually boring, but they aren't often this cool). Perhaps most unusual was a lack of love story subplots.If you liked Vampire Prosecutor and appreciated these elements, you'll like Vampire Prosecutor 2. Only six episodes have aired so far and we see *SPOILER* that a love story might brew up after all *END SPOILER* but I'm very much okay with that. Just do it well and I'll eat it up.In all, it has few flaws and again I have to throw in the word "unique" to describe it. Tired of typical crime/mystery dramas? Give Vampire Prosecutor and its sequel, Vampire Prosecutor 2, a shot.
