Enjoyed this movie very much. All cast picked perfectly and blended very well together. I laughed so much. The special effects were veru good. This move is a vampire shaun of the dead. Definitely worth a watch.
Okay.. So, it's actually kinda funny. Lots of "blood" and injuries.
Reference to Twilight was something unexpected.
But the accent was something terrible. And I know that's the point here. That it's supposed to be funny, but in some parts it was very annoying and unlistenable.

With the added vampire experience by the one and only Anthony Stewart Head. A great funny role he has here, even if he is not front and center. But he lends quite a lot of gravitas. And his acting choices ... genius - even if it is only a facial expression for example.
Overall the humor is hit and miss. The logic is out of the window (with sunlight obviously "hitting" characters at time without it affecting them, vampires not being shown in mirrors but through video calls and other stuff like that) ... if you don't mind those things, you can have quite some fun with this. And you really shouldn't overthink it.
If you are an animal friend, you might have some issues (emphasis on some, not less or more) with how a certain pet is treated ... but maybe in the end you can have a laugh! Pun intended.

I've spent many weeks looking for a new horror movie to watch that I can actually enjoy.
So much garbage is being made these days, it's painful for the eyes.
That's why I normally watch old films because then I know they'll be worth viewing.
But something about this film struck me before I even watched it and that was the play on title, Let the WRONG One In. Haha.
This film is a little gem. Excellent humour and brilliant knockabout stuff. All the cast are brilliant. Nothing is forced, it just happens naturally.
I don't usually like horror comedies as the humour often doesn't work. But yes, this is a fun watch definitely. I'd say this is a 6/10 film but I am gonna bump that score up to 8/10, because it deserves it, holding my attention and I enjoyed it.

Comedy about Deco, a slacker drug-addict in recovery who turns vampire. He races the sun home only to be heckled. Vampires aren't that uncommon here in Dublin. He needs help from his brother but his family have had it with him fokking up so much. This is like the Irish Bordello of Blood. Instead of a bordello they go to a night club hosted by the OG vampire queen bee. This flick is cute, silly and funny.
Did you know
- TriviaThe scenes in the vampire nightclub were filmed in the Dublin tourist attraction "Bram Stoker's Castle Dracula", which has since closed.
- GoofsMa is calling Matt on his cell phone during the attic fight with Deco. She is heard as if she's on Speaker, but the phone setting shows that she isn't. This is rectified in the next scene.
- Crazy creditsIn a mid-credit scene, two carjackers are stealing Henry's taxi, but soon regret it.
