David Jenkins
The stylishly mounted first half zips along at a rate of knots while the gruesome make-up work will keep your gag reflex in violent spasm.
Jordan Mintzer
Film should score OK with hardcore gore fans, but others will expect martyrdom for sticking it out until the end.
Ken Holman
disgusting and pointless Just mindless torture with a horrible plot. The stupidity of the plot is only outweighed by the gore. One star = hated it.
Teri Yazzie
Loved it. Saw this movie a couple years ago. Still haunts me to this day. If you're a huge horror movie buff, you'll appreciate the story line. This movie will take you to another level of thinking. Love love love french horror.

User reviews
Rethink psychological horror. . This movie will stick with you for quite some time. It's a tour through fear itself , and will conjure up death anxiety in any stable minded person. French horror at it's finest. This movie realistically can be broke down into 2 acts: the first being your standard run-of-the-mill paranormal, jump scare flick. The second is another beast into itself. Formulate an opinion by yourself after watching, and you may be surprised at what you discover.

While on holidays in Romania with his girlfriend Livia, Alexandre is hit by a car. He is rushed to the hospital where he has to undergo a blood transfusion. On his return home he seems to suffer from a strange disease, convinced that contaminated blood runs through his veins. After all isn't Romania the land of legendary bloodsuckers? Livia faces Alexandre's increasingly strange behavior and tries to save their relationship at risk.
Prey
One night, several deer hurl themselves unexpectedly against the electric fence of a farm. Seeing deep signs of biting on the animals' bodies, the farm owners realize that a predator is roaming about the neighboring woods. Having determined to hunt it down, the farmer and his family penetrate deep into the surrounding forest. They look with bewilderment at the dying environment ravaged by a mysterious evil force. As the sun slowly sinks away, howling resounds through the forest. The hunters have become prey...
Vampires
They did it! They made a documentary on a bunch of vampires! A family of vampires, bored with immortality, lives in Belgium, eats illegal immigrants, children, handicapped folk, and takes every advantage they can suck out of the country's social system. Samson, a seventies throwback, lives his 55th year like he's forever 20. Grace, an eternal teenager bent on being human again, keeps committing suicide. George, the patriarch, manages as best he can, heading the eccentric family and its on-going squabbles with the neighboring vampires. It turns out vampires must keep to a strict code. They are, for example, prohibited from sleeping with their leader's wife. That's where Samson went too far... Now he and his whole family are exiled to Quebec, where even vampires have to work for a living! A fresh, biting comedy from Vincent Lannoo!
Vampire Party
Best friends and hardcore partiers Sam, Alice and Prune have scored invitations to 'Medici's Night', the legendary VIP bash held every year at a remote castle. But when they discover that this wild party is being thrown by an elite race of blood-crazed vampires, they'll have to stake, stab, slice, bludgeon and blast their way out of a soiree where the hosts are thirsty and the bar is now open. Is it in bad taste to massacre a horde of undead guests even if they are a total pain in the neck? Tchéky Karyo of BAD BOYS fame stars in this sex, blood and rock & roll blowout featuring music by Eagles Of Death Metal, Goldfrapp, The Magic Numbers, Benjamin Diamond, Scratch Massive, Ghostcat and more.
