Review of Byzantium (2013) by Jenna G — 09 Nov 2013

One of the best vampire films that I've seen in awhile & it's quite different than most I've seen. There were many changes to the typical vampire story, the biggest probably being the whole no fang thing; which I really liked, actually.

And also how/where they were turned and just who exactly could turn. Gemma Arterton & Saoirse Ronan are really good here. It's just so nice to see more of the dark, bloody vampire stories coming back after Stephenie Meyer & her Twilight books/films painted a tame and sparkly picture of vamps.

Thanks, Neil Jordan.
