Djuna is a vampire who loves old movies. On one of her trips to the movie store rental, she sees Paolo and is immediately attracted to him. Paolo senses her stare, and I guess, her wanting him,makes him want her, so when she storms out, he follows her.

They start talking, and go to her place,where they watch an old vampire movie. More like, she watches it, as he is always staring at her. Once they start kissing, Djuna starts changing,so she asks him to leave.

Paolo leaves, but calls her the next day, and comes in the evening to see her. She is afraid to open the door to him, so they talk and kiss through the barely opened door. And she bites his lip by mistake.

 

Paolo can't get Djuna out of his head, so at night, he's at her place again. Djuna tells him she's a vampire, and turns him.

 

Their happiness is short lived,as her troubled sister comes to live with them.

 

The acting was so and so, I only liked how Milo Ventimiglia acted, the others were so and so, it might have been due to the accents. And may I say, Milo looks amazing in this movie! I loved the way Paolo stared at Djuna.

 

The soundtrack was Ok.

 

The visual effects were good.
