First off, I love vampire stuff. I don't know why, but I can't get enough of it. Unfortunately we don't get a lot of "good" vampire stuff. This series was excellent. The actor who plays Dracula, Claes Bang, was amazing for this role, seriously, WOW do I hope to see him in more things.
I saw this pop up on netflix recommended the other night and decided to give it a go, and could not stop until it was done at like 5 in the morning. Dead tired the next day, worth it. I still think about this show every now and then and the first couple days afterwards I couldn't get it out of my mind it was so good.
I go back and forth on wishing it would be a nice long series with seasons full of amazing episodes. The other part thinks what they did was brilliant and making it a nice LONG three episodes was the best route. I still want more though! If you like vampire stuff, I think you'll like this.

So with all the usual B movies that are constantly out, when I saw this one I was a little hesitant.
I was pleasantly surprised though, as the movie is pretty good. It's a little bit of a slow burner though, and it doesn't show aliens at all if that's something you're looking for. This isn't scary in any way.
It's a decent movie though so if you're into the subject, give it a go.

Unless you're the type of person who maybe prefers the drivel like Saw V, in which case, this movie probably isn't for you.
The creatures in this movie locate purely using sound, they can pick up noises that are louder than background noise, and they pinpoint it and quickly reach the thing making said sound. There are hints at other survivors out there, but at the same time it's hinted that they are still dropping like flies. Imagine all of the daily human things that happen that would be next to impossible if you all of a sudden could NOT make a single noise, as your life depended on it. How would you raise kids? How would a mother give birth? How could you possibly survive this in the face of a foe who seems to have no weakness?
I read another review that gave this movie 1 star, and his largest complaint was that in the movie everyone is barefoot and they place sand down everywhere they go to walk on. This reviewer then goes on to say how tennis shoes make no noise and that you wouldn't need sand. LOL. Needless to say, he would have been one of the first to go, tennis shoes squeaking on the floors the whole time he tried to run away. Come on people, is common sense just completely gone?
Anyway, this was a Great movie, something different than the usual super gore-fest drivel, something new, or at the very least a new take on something. Every actor in the movie acted beautifully, especially John Krasinski's performance as both an actor and the director. He just knocked it out of the park. I've always liked him ever since I first saw him in the Office, he's going to make great things.
