Customer Reviews of Eternal Blood

Let me say, this was better than most of the hollywood glossy garbage that has been coming out as of late. Kudos to the director for making the most out of a small budget. The plot is interesting, as are the loner, goth teenage characters. While the acting and script (Chilean slang) left a bit to be desired, I was still mildly surprised, and was glad to see that there was actually some thought put into this project. I will be keeping my eye on this director.

Well, what were you expecting?
Some people may not like this movie, but aside from Bela Lugosi in the original Dracula of the 30s, no vampire movie has ever exactly been considered Oscar material. Sangre Eterna is no exception. However, it does manage to keep you entertained, which is what a movie is supposed to do. Right? It may be low budget, but it is a good combination of gore, mild suspense, and a fairly good mystery. The only thing I could think of that would make people not like this movie is that it's in Spanish and it might be confusing if you can't understand the language, but I'm pretty sure that the DVD comes with the English dolby option so there really shouldn't be any problem.

Creepy little horror film.
Director Jorge Olquin's Eternal Blood (Sangre Eterna) is one stylish and creepy little horror film. Budgetary limitations are overcome with creativity by the talented director, cast and crew.

Four friends, all "Goths," are enthralled by the vampire role playing game Eternal Blood. To them, especially their "leader" M, the game is an essential part of life. Unfortunately for them, they run afoul of some nasty real-life vampires lead by the appropriately named Dahmer, causing their dreamed up horrors to become all too real.

The director wisely steers clear of the many cliches of the vampire sub-genre, focusing instead on a reality that can be bent, twisted and ultimately cracked. His characters, especially M, are not the typical hard partying idiots that crop up in so many horror films, but are instead lonely outcasts who have found a sense of community and home among the ranks of the Goth culture. As a result, the viewer can readily sympathize with their plight and root for them.

The spfx are well done and not overblown or over played. The score, accentuated by several Spanish Goth bands, is excellent, perfectly complementing the visuals. The sets and cinematography are atmosphereic and rich in detail, aiding to the suspension of one's disbelief.

All-in-all, a great film. See this film if you are a horror fan, or if you are looking for a few creatively off-beat chills. You won't be disappointed.
