Blood Relatives Review by StephenWilds: A Supernatural Comedy With Teeth
It’s hard to pass up a new vampire movie — especially one that looks a little more grounded than some of the supernatural action films we’ve been given lately. Sure, it’s a comedy, and the main character is a Yiddish blood-sucker who still looks like he was only truly cool in the 50s and 60s, but I’m digging the road trip idea.is another one of those films that almost went under my radar, but the trailer convinced me to review it.
For those who love vampire lore and understand various interpretations of these night-dwelling creatures, there sadly isn’t much new here. It’s kept simple, and a lot of the old folklore is used, like the gag of having to be invited in and how Francis is always making sure. It’s funny — almost quaint — but obvious as well. Keen observers will notice names like Dr. Seward and Quincey Morris pop up as the film pays homage to.
