Vampiro

So, I'm trying all sorts of movies during this project, giving movies a try I'd usually just ignore.

Vampiro was one of these.

Casanova is a half vampire, half human who... well, lives on a boat with a twelve year old vampire leprosy victim. He's kind of like a mix of Blade and Angel. But not in a good way.

He's a supersexy Hispanic guy who's suave as hell- of course he's named Casanova.

He falls for a white girl named Blanca.

Really.

There's a convoluted story involving Casanova killing his father, and his father's men trying to kill him, and Blanca's girlfriend becoming a vampire. It's one of those movies where someone needed to tell the writer "less complicated."

Its biggest flaw- for me- is that there are several flashbacks that are filmed in a manner that doesn't differentiate from contemporary events. I think it's more of a budget constraint than a stylistic choice, that could have been addressed more effectively somehow.
