Daybrakers

Well I just went and saw Daybrakers and I can say it is vary good. However if you are only into vampire romance and stuff (nothing against you if you are.) then this is not the movie for you. It is more a vampire apocalypse then a love story though there is a little underlying romance there's nothing profound. To tell you the truth it's really the way vampires where originally made to be. Creepy!
It is more a story of humanly and how even in the worst of times you can still find it. It's also a story of belonging and finding a home in this crazy world.
I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes a story of hope with a genuinely creepy twist.

Well as I say: "Good night, and say 'hi' to the vamps for me!"

In the Forests of the Night by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes

In the Forests of the Night and it's sequels and most defiantly some of my new favorite books!
One thing I always look at in a book is the villein and I especially liked this one. Mostly because though he was clearly at least mostly evil and you as a reader seriously wanted something really bad to happen to him you at no point ever really wanted him to die. And considering that is--at least for me--what I normally feel toward a lot of villeins it was very nice change of pace to have a lot of hatred for a character but not want them dead.
Any way as for the rest of the story I really loved how the relationship was with Risika(the mane character) and her tiger. I also loved how about half of the story was told in the present time and half was flash-backs. But they both balanced each-other out perfectly. How Risika's past and present just sort of mingled together.
I can't really think of much bad to say about this other then it ended!

Well as I say: "Good night, and say 'hi' to the vamps for me!"

Intro

Hello and welcome to the Critics of the Night blog! A blog specially detached to giving you reviews on vampire books and movies!
For the most part they will just be written reviews but once I get my darn camera to up-lode video there will be some video reviews too!
I have a farly good list going but if there is anything specific you want to hear a review on leave a comment and I'll take a look.
I will also--though not as often--be writing some reviews on small on-line stories from free on-line writing sites so if you have one send the link here!
Though I will be doing most of it I have some friends who will most likely be helping.
So without further ado let us venture into the dark!
