Cult of the Vampire

It's funny how you come across entertainment today. In the old days we would go to the theater and watch what we thought from the movie posters to be our best choice. Sometime the posters were better than the movie, sometime not. Lately all the media hype and trailers talk up and push entertainment to us and I have to admit, I think the trailers are rubbish. They just tell the story in 90 seconds and show everything they can to suck you in. Cult of the Vampire doesn't have a "Hollywood" trailer. It is a teaser trailer that shows a few scenes and for me that made me want to dish out the rental fee to watch it and I am glad I did. I rated it 8 stars because it won me over in many ways... a no "Star" cast that was powerful, the music was better than big Hollywood can ever do and the story was refreshingly unique and the naturalness of the subject matter was key for me to like a modern Vampire film. They made it real, believable and great entertainment.

Art-house Euro styled horror film with a good no-name cast. The lead actresses; Iva Stelmak and Megan Porter are perfectly cast and bring depth to their characters. The music makes this film more powerful because the lyrics tell the story as well as the dialog and actions. Pacing is fast and not predictable. It has a "Cult Classic" vibe for us Vampire aficionado's. "Cult of the Vampire" is on my list now as one of the better Vampire films the last few years.

I am a lover of everything about Vampires and have much experience with the legends from my homeland. I think this film "Cult of the Vampire" did a good job telling an interesting story but I think the best part was the lead actress Iva Stelmak. She was very powerful and convincing in her role as Xandra. I am happy this film was made. I watched the film a second time with my roommate and it was just as good a second time.

I enjoyed this story of rock'n'roll and love called CULT OF THE VAMPIRE. Iva Stelmak who stars as Xandra makes this movie special. She has that charisma so few actors/ actresses have today. I looked her up on IMDb and see she hasn't been in much. Hollywood needs to call her and get her into some of their big budget films. Forget Jennifer Lawrence, Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway and the rest Hollywood's chosen. I want to see Iva Stelmak in more films. I'm not the only one here seeing her star power!

Do you like Beautiful Vampires and Great Music? If so this one is for you! "Great Indie Vampire flick! The lead actress Iva Stelmak was stunning in the lead role as Xandra. The casting for this movie was right on spot! The soundtrack was great and flowed accented and complimented the film. the story line grabs you and keeps you interested, generally speaking most vampire movies are pretty predictable. This one was not. Even though it has a lot of new faces this movie is a great surprise. Definitely worth watching!
