Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

ggglee19 This movie was pretty hilarious. It wasn't that scary, but was overall pretty enjoyable. It's one of those horror movies that you know are supposed to be scary, but are actually pretty funny. The movie begins with two teenage girls, Cindy and Lucy, deciding to go down to the flooded crypt of the Church (more like a flooded church basement), and deciding to take a swim in there, since that's perfectly normal. While swimming, Lucy's crucifix falls off into the water, waking up the dormant vampire who happened to be sleeping underwater. He rises up and claims Cindy as a vampire, who goes on to infect her mother as well. Lucy escapes. Meanwhile, a schoolteacher arrives in town and tries to help Lucy out, who is now the target of the vampire since she is a virgin. The schoolteacher, Mark, is in town to visit his friend, a priest who is having an affair with Cindy's mother. We find out that the priest has been locking Cindy and her mother up since they became vampires. Now, one strange thing about this movie is the vampires themselves. When they sleep in water, their lungs come out of their mouths and float above the water. It doesn't really make sense, but a lot that happens in this movie makes no sense. Somehow, the majority of the town becomes vampires, except for Lucy, Mark, and a random, drunk, homeless, black man we see throughout the film. The actor's have hilarious ways they say lines, that make you crack up so hard. An example: "For god's sakes! A milk man!" said by the over-dramatic Mark after seeing a vampire milkman. Before I forget, there's also some creepy little boy we see throughout the movie, who says the most random creepy things. At one point this kid starts talking about someone named Mr. Bubbles, and to this day I still don't know who he's talking about. We first see him looking at dirty magazines in the street, and later tells Mark that he has seen everyone in the town naked...this kid was so strange. Towards the end of the movie, the vampire has Lucy, starts to lick her neck, when Mark burst through the door to rescue his underage love. He proceeds to call the vampire a ton of random swear words. The vampire kicks his ass, but never fear! The random homeless black guy burst through the wall in a van, with a crucifix positioned on the hood that goes directly into the vampire's heart, making him die. This movie was weird, but funny. Not that scary though. The dialogue was hilarious and random. I strongly suggest watching this movie because I can't properly describe how ridiculous and hilarious this movie truly is.

Vomitron_G After 10 years of trying to hunt down a legit copy of this one, the wait was finally over in 2007. And to me, it was worth it. This is a sadly over-looked vampire-gem from the very early 90's (to my knowledge it never even made it over to our country on VHS or DVD; rather puzzling since pretty much everything has always been available over here on rental VHS until DVD started to change the videostore market)."Children Of The Night" certainly is an above average (crossbreeding) genre film and I for one got as much enjoyment out of it as I did with movies like "Vamp" and "Fright Night" (to name only 2). Above average, as far as production values, SFX and cool ideas go. Because the screenplay is a muddled mess, the pacing is off and the dialogues aren't exactly quality stuff either. The musical score had a bit of a "Hellraiser" (the original) vibe to it, which does raise the film to a higher, more sinister level at times. The scarce humorous aspects in it took some time to get used to (and seemed out of place first), but a drooling and horny vampire-version of Karen Black chained to a bed sure got me in the right mood. Very decent special-effects and vampire make-up too. And the most remarkable aspect of all: This film establishes a never-before-seen type of vampires. Or at least adds a new type of myth to these beings. You'll have to discover that for yourself, because I'm not going to tell what it is.All-in-all, even though I can understand people not really digging this kind of vampire-mixture, "Children Of The Night" turned out a very enjoyable watch for me. The first half has a fair amount of tension and manages to scare on some occasions, the second half is just plain good old vampire slaying fun. Other highlights in director Tony Randel's horror history are "Hellbound: Hellraiser II" and "Ticks" (AKA "Infested"), so you might have a better clue now of what to expect from this movie.

bigham78 A complete waste of time. Bad story and poor acting and about as much suspense as watching paint dry. Pass on this one. I usually watch most horror pictures as I've been a big horror movie fan all my life. But, this one with the Mother and daughter locked up and Priest blaming himself for the Mother curse and feeding the daughter slugs and the Mother biting her own daughter neck and drinking her blood after she's eaten the slugs. Yuk!!!! I've seen better special effects in most High school play production. The overall movie shows they didn't have much of a budget on this one and I can't believe Peter Deluise wastes his time with this one. Karen Black I can believe as she's done more then her share of turkeys over the years.

gridoon This is not a bad horror film, but it's nothing special, either. Very derivative and ordinary, it produces more yucks (thanks to gruesome special effects) than scares. As for Karen Black, she has come a long way since Hitchcock's "Family Plot", that's for sure! (*1/2)
