Best vampire priest film ever!

The director of Oldboy brings you his own unique spin on the vampire film. A priest is assisting victims of a plague in Africa when he becomes afflicted with a unique illness he can't initially identify.

The moral Christian values slowly start to change as his lust for blood and sex consume him. He must continually inject the rose colored ambrosia to stave off boils from covering his entire body. He begins an affair with a married woman unbeknownst to her family or husband. Her lust and passion are fulfilled as well since she is unhappy with her husband and her marriage.

The priest is constantly torn between his former religious believes and his current immoral desires which are consuming him. His relationships evolve as he can now relieve the suffering of those who want to end their lives while assisting to maintain his own.

Will his desires or his new romance get the best of him?

Watched this as part of my October horror-a-thon, and was not disappointed. The concept for the film is completely unique in a good way and is assisted by pristine, sets, camera work and lighting. Some of the imagery will certainly catch your attention as something you have not seen before and the plot will keep you guessing.

The 135 minute running time did seem to drag a bit toward the middle of the film, but it gains traction and motors through the last hour rather quickly.

I really liked this one.

Emotion, style of writing, song lyrics (0 more)

Daisy Jones and The Six has it all love, Lust, heartbreak, rock n roll, sex, drugs, addiction to it all. The interview style which it is written in with so many points of view was easy to follow. It reads like a behind the music show with a little of where are they now thrown in. I can't say enough amazing things about this book. I was laughing and then crying following the story of the band and how they became Daisy Jones and The Six. A story so layered with emotion it speaks volumes in more than just the words. Including the lyrics of the songs along with this book makes it truly unique.

This book felt so real. I'm glad Reese Witherspoon has optioned it for film, whether as a miniseries or a movie. Either way, it would be beloved.

Even the minor characters were great and well-rounded. The characters were more than an extension of the author but were fully formed as individuals with complex backstories and emotions. The writing style brought everyone to life.
