Perfect.

2. The Loved Ones. Perfect. This movie was freakin awesome. Comes from the land down under, written and directed by a dude named Sean Byrne. Story goes a little something like (hit it), damaged girl asks damaged boy to prom, but boy has a girlfriend already says no, awww. Girl's dad kidnaps boy and together as a family tortures the shit out of him. It was pure twisted fun, not so much horror, more like bloody torture film. Music was awesome, background stories of characters were cool. You believed the crazy people were in fact fucking insane, and the boy was in some serious pain! Stars Xavier Samuel as Brent the boy, who looks like Prince Casian and Bella Swan had a kid. (I'm sorry for the two references from 2 of the worst film series in a while but, oh well, Xavier was in on of em...) And Robin McLeavy as Lola, the insane chick, she's also the hot frontier woman with the tattoo on her face from Hell on Wheels! But seriously, fans of "this kind" of movie should check it out... Its clever... Peace... filmbufftim on FB

4.5 stars.

I didn't get the same wow...! feeling after reading this as the first but I did really like it at the same time.

The relationship is still as hot between Raphael and Elena in this as the first and this time they are in the Refuge so that Elena can learn how to be what she now is. We learn more about the nightmares that haunt our favourite hunter and see more into Raphael's past, which was interesting.

We don't see much of her best friend and fellow hunter in this, Ransom and Sara, and in a way I missed them. They grew on me in the first, but since Elena wants to go home at the end of this, I'm assuming they head back to New York in the next and we'll see more of them again.

I have to say I still like Illium--a.k.a Bluebell--and this new side we see to him in this only makes me like him more. I would love to see his wings! And Elena's since they seem to be along the same colours. In fact, I need visuals of everyone's wings because they all sound incredibly beautiful!
