Wish something a little more significant would've happened throughout, or towards the end. But, not a bad directorial debut at all for Noah Segan.
This film is more comedy with horror movie or monster movie elements. As it tries to stay in a certain reality, showing the modern day problems with being a vampire, and just generally getting older, it also opens up the world for other supernatural mysteries, while dealing with its own central father daughter storyline. Dealing with the clips of what might be your own life for being the center of it and having to sacrifice for another. As the film is built more around the characters relationship with one another and find little adventures or distractions for them to go on to strengthen their bond and test their limits. Nice to see Emily Rios in another film after she was so memorable in the comedy Plan B Here she is in another comedy, and while not as distinct, she definitely is memorable as she is pretty much like that film the star here, With a different look. This is star, Noah, Segen feature, film, directorial debut and it’s not bad. It’s a cute little film that places character over story, plot, action, or visuals and by the end it feels like a good time though not necessarily special it does have its own voice. It’s a film with steaks where not too much happens and feels kind of laid-back. It’s cute to spend some time with though it will certainly not rock your world.
I liked it very much. Wish it wouldn’t end and hoped it went off differently.
It's a pleasant ride. It isn't an uproarious laugh machine, nor is it brimming with blood and eldritch horror. It's a gentle genre piece. Worth a watch.
