A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Great Film overall

A Disappointing Continuation

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Another example of a poor attempt at art by making the film black and white, the film has no clear direction and is confused in what it wants to be, the western theme and music sticks out like a sore thumb and removes you from the dark/mysterious theme the movie is trying to go for.Acting is subpar,cinematography is decent, all in all this film is a mess with no real merit, I am not sure why this is labeled as horror besides the fact that the girl is a vampire, the film is trying to be different yet the result comes out ultimately pretentious.

For me, this was a movie about loneliness and love - every single person in this movie is so lonely and lost and searching for beauty and light - there's a lot of other interesting things about this movie, a commentary on how Muslim women are treated, an ode to horror movies and westerns... but the depth of it and why it touched me was the characters who were all lost looking for love in the darkest of places. The film itself was visually stunning and the soundtrack great, I also loved how different it was, you would be hard pressed to find a movie similar - it has it's own heartbeat and uniqueness. Sure it starts slow, and is slow, you can't be in a hurry to get through this movie, but that is part of what makes it so wonderful because that tone makes you feel how the characters must feel lost and stuck in this "bad city." With the Farsi dialect and the interesting yet familiar iconic characters it is like walking into a different world that somehow you know. I loved the vampire, her acting was so subtle all done with her eyes, an animal that you couldn't trust yet wanted to. For those who say this is a pretentious film, I'll never understand, it's ARTSY, but it is not overly aware of itself or trying to be pompous, it's just telling this weird story with these weird characters with this very stylized feel and if you just open yourself to it and go with it and let it wash over you I think you will love it as much as I did.

A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night(2014) Starring: Sheila Vand, Arash Marandi, Marshall Manesh, Dominic Rains, Rome Shadanloo, Milad Eghbali, Reza Sixo Safai, and Mozhan Marnò Directed By: Ana Lily Amirpour Review THE FIRST IRANIAN VAMPIRE WESTERN Hello Kiddies your Pal The Crypt-Critic is stalking the night wit his favorite suckers for the night in a Foreign land. In the Iranian ghost-town Bad City, a place that reeks of death and loneliness, the townspeople are unaware they are being stalked by a lonesome vampire. This plot/synopsis it sounds like something I would invest whether it be foreign or western. I usually only watch Foreign films if there Horror, Monsters, or even sometimes romance. This was both but I wasn't a fan. I mean I liked Let The Right one In. But this film it just came off as like a film with a good idea and acting behind it but a weak narrative for telling what would otherwise be a magnificent story. I'm giving it a 2 and a half out of five.

A smashing debut from Amir Lily Amirpour. Shot on a shoe-string in gorgeous black and white, this is funny, dead-pan, creepy, punky, sweet, sly, smart, violent, sexy, mysterious, loaded with style, and the most off-beat celebration of feminism and girl-power I may have ever seen on screen. Great use of music too.It's a vampire story set in an alternate universe that looks like barren, poor, poverty stricken post-industrial America, but where everyone speaks Farsi, and our anti-heroine wears a chador while skateboarding through the night. While there are a lot of genres being toyed with here (spaghetti westerns come strongly to mind more than once), at heart it's an odd, sort-of love story between a feminist avenger vampire and a lost young guy who is burned out with caring for his heroin-addict father (a much older parent drug addict is only one of the many cliché breaking elements of the story).Clearly touched by David Lynch and echoing early Jim Jarmusch (though in an interview on the disc Amirpour says with charming and very funny candor that she's not a fan of Jarmusch), this is really exciting new cinema that may have been inspired by forerunners, but has a voice all it's own. For a while, I've felt I never really needed to see another vampire film. How many variations can there be? Well, this proved me dead wrong. I can't wait for her next film!Note on the blu-ray: The Kino collector's edition blu-ray has a ton of terrific extras (including an entire graphic novel by Amirpour) and it looked amazing on my home screen. Professional video review sites were split between those who flat-out loved the image, and those who see flaws. But for me, the images were rich and powerful, and none of the problems the more mixed technical reviews sighted crossed my mind or caught my eye.
