The movie is based on the superhero Marvel Comics, Morbius The Living Vampire.

 

Afflicted with a blood disease all of his life, which didn't allow him to live a normal life,doctor Michael Morbius,who refused the Nobel prize,is looking for a cure. He thinks it's in the bats which only drink blood.

 

After the animal trials are a success, he tries the cure on humans,meaning him. He does this in international waters,with the help of his childhood friend,who's also afflicted by the disease, Lucian,whom he calls Milo.

 

After being shot with the serum in the spine, doctor Morbius changes into something between man and bat,and goes on a killing spree, killing all the men on the ship, except for his love interest, Martina.

 

Realizing what he's done, he is monitoring himself, trying to find a way out and a cure. All the while,he drinks a synthetic blood and realizes this doesn't keep him satisfied,as the time he can go without it reduces from 6 hours to four.

 

His friend finds out he did find out a cure for their illness,and takes it without his knowledge, unlike Morbius, embracing the dark nature of the cure.

 

The movie has a good soundtrack, good acting, good visual effects. Some of the things in the movie I found ridiculous and made me laugh, other things made me laugh thanx to the delivery of the mustache wearing police officer.

I found the movie entertaining,it didn't bore me.

 

Rating : Worth a watch !
