Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Reanna Keller I have always had an obsessed with vampires. This movie I have loved ever since I have been little. If you enjoy vampire movies with a lot of blood and mean vampires(Not ones who sparkle) Then this is for you.It's about Nick and Sean who meet a mysterious blonde girl. They get sucked into the world of vampires in the middle of the desert. I think the acting is wonderful. Johnathon does an amazing job as Kit (He pulls off being a vampire, looking sexy and scary and also having that "it" factor to lead the group of vampires). I wouldn't look past this movie at all. It does follow the line of The Lost Boys, John Carpenter's Vampires and Near Dark. This vampires are vicious and vengeful which makes for a good vampire flick.

p-stepien Best write a review before this movie escapes my memory and dissolves with the passing time. Sean (Kerr Smith) works in Hollywood as film editor (mainly preparing trailers) and as such isn't exactly overflowing with cash. Hence when he lacks funds to attend his sister's wedding in Florida he decides to take up an offer by a repo office to drive a classic Mercedes to Miami. Main two rules - no hitchhikers and no reckless driving. In movie logic - those are the two rules that will definitely be broken during the course of the movie. Even more so that along the way he picks up a bum vampire killer called Nick (Brendan Fehr) and a catatonic chick Megan (Izabella Miko). Which only puts him high on the feeding list of a gang of bloodthirsty vampires led by Kit (Johnathon Schaech)...The scriptwriter tried to input some new life into the whole vampire genre by introducing a new myth concerning their creation (connected with the crusades) as well as giving it a great backdrop for prospective sequels (with three more 'original' vampires waiting to be vanquished. Trouble is that the movie itself is so cliché ridden that the freshness just isn't there. Actingwise all the people in this movie do a decent job and have a cool enough feel to them that it makes the flick enjoyable. But the dialogue and direction of "The Forsaken" is very traditional horror filmmaking (with no real atmosphere behind it) and that in itself makes it a competently done, but forgettable experience. Additionally they are no real action or horror scenes which really stand out and in general you feel more like you are being served a pilot of a television series than a movie itself.The biggest fault I can find in this movie is the character of Megan, who gets involved in the plot for no real purpose, sits around catatonic for most of the movie and doesn't even have a romance with the hero. After all this she just walks away in the penultimate scene never to be heard of again. Totally pointless character played by a passable Izabella Miko (not too pretty and does nothing with her character to make her memorable - given she was supposed to lie around motionless for the majority of this movie). Much more eye-catching was the vampire Cym (Phina Oruche) who must have one of the most sensual lips I have ever seen in cinema...

wes-connors Bitten, bloody, and beautifully naked young Izabella Miko (as Megan) survives a vicious vampire attack, which kills the rest of her family. Meanwhile, handsome California film student Kerr Smith (as Sean) gets a week off work, to attend his sister's wedding. Without much money, Mr. Smith arranges to deliver a $50,000 Mercedes cross-country, to Florida. He is advised not to pick up hitchhikers. But, sexy Brendan Fehr (as Nick) desperately wants to ride in Smith's car. "The sun's killing me," Fehr complains. For gas money, Smith agrees to ride with Fehr.Like many vampire films, "The Forsaken" works best as a collection of fantasies for the early teenager. Since it's rated "R", you had to sneak at the theater, or wait for the quick coming DVD. Young TV attractions Smith (from "Dawson's Creek") and Fehr (from "Roswell") have great chemistry as the same-sex hook-up; their relationship falls safely into subtext, however. Fehr's subtle attraction is unrequited, with Smith coming to favor the mouth-wateringly nubile Ms. Miko. Gratuitously naked and (mostly) catatonic, Miko is the fantastical female sex object.The predatory Phina Oruche (as Cym) and beautiful Alexis Thorpe (as Teddy) also titillate - and, it's fun to see these two women (who briefly graced "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Dark Shadows" universes) as bloodsuckers. Snake-charmer Johnathon Schaech (as Kit) is a "to die for" head vampire; his day driver Simon Rex (as Pen) doesn't suck, sadly; but he is very helpful in fixing speeding tickets. In one of her last appearances, veteran actress Carrie Snodgress has a small role. Writer/director J.S. Cardone corrals it all effectively, without too much originality.****** The Forsaken (4/27/01) J.S. Cardone ~ Kerr Smith, Brendan Fehr, Johnathon Schaech, Izabella Miko

lastliberal Nice quick shower scene with girl washing blood off her whole body, and a flashing on the road made me think that I was possibly going to be in for a treat with a vampire movie featuring WB stars. I was not wrong, as we got a real bodily treat in this one.Sean (Kerr Smith) is delivering a Mercedes 450 SL from L.A. to Miami to attend his sister's wedding, and he picks up Nick (Brendan Fehr). They run into Kit (Johnathon Schaech), and we find out that Nick is a "hunter." I assume a vampire hunter, as Kit and his gang look strange. We soon find out they are not the biting-on-the-neck kind of vampires, but the rip-your-heart-out kind.They pick up Megan (Izabella Miko) and we find out about Nick, while we enjoy Megan's body.There is a lot of explosive action as they drive across Texas to escape the vampires.Oscar nominee Carrie Snodgress (Diary of a Mad Housewife, Iron Jawed Angels) appears in one of her last performances.
