I feel like there's a retirement for a classic Nicholas Cage movie: the character he's playing has to basically be written only for him. This is one of those movies. Done may say this movie is ridiculous and unengaging, I would agree with the former but not the latter. While watching this, you find yourself thinking that this is super over the top but you want to see how far it goes. I would definitely recommend this for anyone who likes a classic Nick Cage movie.

I chose to watch this movie because I enjoy most vampire movies but this one I would rate just middle-of-the-road as far as a vampire flicks go. As a psychological thriller, however, it is actually quite well done, and, in fact, I never fully understood whether the makers of this movie are trying to get me to believe vampires were real or not in their world. The acting could be considered just so-so by many, but in the context of the deluded main character, (Cage's) it can be seen as quite believable. The supporting roles were acted out decently and should not be considered by any stretch of the imagination to be "B-movie" quality. Quickly judging the "worst" acting job in this movie (the main character) would be a mistake considering how difficult the task obviously was. Still, the movie was not terribly entertaining, being slightly thought-provoking at best, and not to be taken seriously as a vampire/horror flick. It is actually one of the very few movies I have seen which I genuinely do not know whether to recommend or not. OK - If really pressed into it...NOT!Read full review
Not your formulaic Hollywood movie, this black-comedy/farce features Nicholas Cage at his quirky, enigmatic best as a young, neurotic advertising executive looking for love in New York City... and getting more than he bargained for.

I'm a huge Cage fan so, I'm glad to have another classic of his into my collection.
