StoryLine: I Kissed a Vampire 2010 I went to what I think was the first ever public showing of this film at SIFF, at the Neptune theater There were apparently some difficulties getting the film there, and when it finally arrived, they played it off what I believe was the directors mac book, and due to technical difficulties there was no color correction and the time code was across the top However, we were informed that this was the final cut of the film only the color correction was missing I had a lot of fun at this movie I think Ill start with the best parts It was immediately hilarious This movie didnt take itself 100 seriously, and I loved that There were some great breaking the 4th wall moments where the characters acknowledged that they were singing and dancing All the characters were over the top and very funny Dan Helsing in particular The musical numbers of which there are plenty were probably THE best part The songs themselves were all catchy and well produced, and the dances were a blast to watch Each musical number was as slick and flashy as any pop music video Now, for low spots of the film The points where it lagged were when it started to take itself seriously the dramatic moments between the characters were very soap opera y Also, the plot was almost paper thin and didnt always make much sense It was sort of just a string to hang the big comedic and musical moments on I still recommend seeing this movie I think anyone who likes rock musicals will enjoy this This is the kind of movie you go see with all your friends to laugh together and sing the songs afterward If this movie doesnt become a box office hit, I think it will at least become a cult hit, particularly with teens and 20 somethings
