I was in a mild mood for this type of movie, I'm watching lots of B- Horror lately and I like M. Madsen so I gave it a go.

What a mistake.

Maybe you have to see a film in complete to justify a review. Then again, that half an hour was more than enough for me. I was bored out of my mind and didn't bother anymore if something would ever happen.

I liked the cars (that's why I gave the extra star), especially the Shelby. But if that's the only highlight you wait for in the next scene you better not waste more life time.

I waited till Michael Madsen showed up but it didn't help.

Then I hate it when the cover shows you characters (e.g. DMX, as if he's a main character or side-kick) which only show up for a few minutes when we might have just done without them. Good idea to rip off fans with a sham cover.

Go and watch Drive Angry, which has its flaws but is a quantum leap more ENTERTAINING.

Let's be honest here: how many people looked at this movie, saw that it stars Michael Madsen and a rapper, and thought to themselves, "Well, Michael Madsen is a discerning gentleman who would never lead me astray. I shall endeavor to watch this unknown masterpiece posthaste!" Give me a break. It's a low budget, direct-to-video vampire movie. I don't know what people were expecting. Of course it's a bad movie. But it's clearly not the "worst movie ever made". I'm not sure which movie deserves that honor, but once you've sat through a dozen Troma movies, you can start talking about "worst movie ever". Until then, you don't have the right.

I was having trouble staying awake near the end of the movie, but I did make it. For that, I award three stars. I think it would be great fun to watch The Bleeding with Vin Diesel, if just to hear what Vin says about the cheesy wannabe in this movie.

This movie is hysterically bad. Michael Matthias who stars as vampire hunter Shawn Black is downright lifeless. His acting ability throughout the movie is borderline comatose. With his monotone voice and inability to deliver a performance that barely rises above a common high school play. One would think that with all his brawn, he could bring his physicality to good use. Nope! To make matters worse, the head vampire played by Vinnie Jones, has to be one of the dorkiest vampires ever filmed. He makes weird faces toward the camera and is about as scary as a wet noodle. My goodness, even the action scenes are boring! Combine that with terrible special effects, rapper DMX screaming, and a shoddy script. It certainly has plenty of shortcomings. I usually can find something redeemable in most films, but this is pure trash.
