The Last Vampire On Earth (2010)

Surprisingly incoherent and boring
hyped garbage
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
RELEASED IN 2010 and directed by Vitaliy Versace, "The Last Vampire on Earth" chronicles events in northeast Ohio when a nice religious girl (McKenzie Grimmet) meets a mysterious-but-nice guy (Michael Bole) at college and falls in love. Problems arise when she and her family discover that he's a 2000 year-old vampire (!). Even worse, she's diagnosed with a fatal disease.This is an extremely low-budget flick with wooden non-acting, stilted dialogue, bad lighting, questionable sound, basic camera angles and so forth. On top of this, the writer confuses traditional protestant doctrine & practices with that of the Jehovah's False Witnesses. For instance, there are references to "going to church" and the "pastor" when, in fact, JWs don't use this terminology. Their meeting facilities are called "Kingdom Halls" (which, to be fair, is referenced once in the movie) and their leaders are referred to as elders. The "Kingdom Hall" building depicted in the movie is a traditional church facility. Obvious flaws like this reflect bad (or non-existent) research.The second thing you need to understand is that this is not a horror story. It's a youth drama or love story involving a winsome girl and a good vampire. If you can overlook the low-level of production and adapt to the movie's limitations, the story's generally engaging with a couple of boring parts.The director was born in Russia and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. This was only his second movie, but he kept at his chosen craft and has gone on to bigger and better things in filmmaking. I love to see people make-do with what they got to create and improve as they persevere in faith. Do not despise humble beginnings.THE FILM RUNS 90 minutes and was shot in Youngstown & Boardman, Ohio. WRITER: Mandie L Abraham wrote the screenplay based on her self-published novel.GRADE: D
I came to The Last Vampire On Earth with some misconceptions: that it was a Christian film (Jehovah's Witness beliefs come into play, though the filmmaker has only the vaguest idea of what they are); that the lead actress was also the lead in C Me Dance (no; CMD's Christina DeMarco is practically a SAG award winner compared to Last Vampire's McKenzie Grimmet, although they both have that doe-eyed, hit with a brick from behind look); and that it would be performed by actors. No one in this film can act. Nor can the editor edit, the sound engineer sync up sound, nor, almost needless to say, the director direct. Even craft services is non-existent or sub-par. At two so-called family meals, KFC is served up by the characters, without comment. Except when the vampire later throws it up, which turns out to be a surprisingly important plot point. Fine for some laughs, if you like this sort of thing, but this film is not even good enough to have on in the background at your Hallowe'en party.
This film is hands down one of the best adaptations of a novel for the big screen ever made, right there with The Lord of the Rings and Fifty shades of Grey. Versace proves to be one of the greatest cinematographers of our generation with his unique visual style, camera movements, framing and photography. The lead actors are extremely charismatic and fun to see. The script does a good job in creating good dialogues and set pieces and being faithful to the source material. This is a must see film.
This is the best movie i have ever seen in my entire life. The cinematography was amazing and the deep symbolism was too deep to grasp by most people. I love how the main Character constantly had the expression of a minotaur, I think it really tied the movie up and just made it amazing. I love the bond that the two characters build during the movie and i find it to be really relate-able and i would even dare to compare this movie with other pieces of film gold such as 2:13, The Puppet Master, Twilight, and Bloody Marry. I loved this movie and i would even dare to say that is is my new all time favorite movie of all time, I strongly recommend that you watch it and i think you will love it.
