What We Do in the Shadows is just great.
Pretty much every line of dialogue is hilarious, and very subtle most of the time.
There's a lot of funny dry humour here, excentuated wholeheartedly by the New Zealand accent.
Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement are fantastic both behind and in front of camera, and the rest of the cast, in particular Cori Gonzalez-Macuer and Jonny Brugh are brilliant as well. Special kudos to Stu Rutherford for giving us a character that even vampires don't want to die.
The horror element is pretty good also. It plays on many vampire tropes well still managing to be suitably bloody when it needs to be.
What We Do in the Shadows is just an all round wonderful movie, something I find myself thinking for most things that Taika Waititi touches.
