With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone who likes their romance with a bite and horror fans. Vampire lore, given its own spin. Same wavelength as Dracula.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Tense from early on, at 1 hr 23 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1961: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.
A vampire uses two sisters to seek revenge from the last member of a family that persecuted the undead in Europe, but his plan is threatened by a man who knows how to destroy him with a peculiar piece of music.
