Vampiyaz Audience Reviews

Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!
Executscan Expected more
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
jfgibson73 I liked this movie. I was extremely low budget, with ridiculous effects and poor film quality. And yet, I liked the way it looked. It made it feel even closer to being there. And that is a reason that people watch movies--to be transported.I thought the writing was actually somewhat clever, and I liked the dialog for the most part. There was a lot of slang, which I always enjoy. I didn't think there was ANYTHING wrong with the acting. Some people will probably find it a little wooden or amateurish, but again, I enjoyed it in spite of these perceived shortcomings. I guess for me, it still feels more real than many wide release, big budget movies, because the actors sound more like how people actually talk. My favorite performance was Lila Blake Palmer, who I wish I could see in some other movies.The story was about a vampire trying to get an amulet that would give him limitless powers. He forces his ex-partner, who did time because of him, to get it back from a group of vampire hunters. The one thing I didn't like was what happened to a lot of the characters at the end. I would have liked to see a different resolution. But I liked it enough to seek out other movies by the filmmakers--next I'll watch Zombiez, then Bloodz vs. Wolvez.
mighty_sam76 i went to the DVD store, hoping to rent a good thrilling, chilling piece of art. As many people i guess, i got taken by the beautiful box, and the nice text written on its back: vampires, dead people walking the streets... That's what i was expecting. Until i saw the movie and realized how awful it was. I really mean it: everything about it is terrible: the acting, the effects, the succession of events...Especially the guy they kill in the first place, the one who was dressed in pink like a baby!!! Why???? I also laughed a lot at the shooting effect: it was more like light coming out of the guns.And if you really want to watch it, please take your time to laugh at the part where the guy is using a cut off hand to taste blood in a platter. Why the hand? Couldn't he just put the blood in a glass and drink it??? The movie is a failure. But watch it, just so you know what failure means!!!
chakan2 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.
herecy This movie at first seems to be a real stinker. However you have to look at things from another perspective. Consider that all these characters are street people. They are used to certain situations and nothing else. Granted there were somethings that were confusing. Take the guy in the bunny suit. There really needed to be something to explain why he was, and who he was. Also why was the girl walking around on that dirt road? That aside, there were some very good ideas in the film. Such as the Vampire Master becoming a much more cerebral being. Hey you spend 8 years and not able to sleep and you would read a lot too. The hero who just cant seem to catch a break. The "Ghetto Fabulous" Renfield was a scream. I thought the Vampire Assault Team could have used some polish. They seemed disconnected, almost as if they were thrown together and had never done the job before. And for some reason the Team Leader seemed to be immolating Rosie Perez. But if you don't take them seriously, you don't really care. The movie is not about them, Vampiyaz is about a failed thief and a vampire he wants revenge on. The story was tied together nicely and it seemed to try to go for action but fell just short of the mark. The fights were thought out but not well acted.All in all it was not a BAD movie. It just needs some work in some areas. This was a low budget movie that did the best it could with what was available, or so it seems.
