The Forsaken (2001)
4/10
Vampire Flick With Little To Offer
14 June 2005
The movie seems to take a little of "The Lost Boys" and "Near Dark" and regurgitate it all into your nowadays mundane vampire movie. Little originality shows other than in introducing drugs you can take, known as "the cocktail", to stave off vampiric infection. The story has a couple young guys driving around in the middle of nowhere. They run into an infected girl and the vampires responsible for her doomed existence. What ensues is a ridiculous game of cat-and-mouse falling on a flaccid and incredulous conclusion. Don't expect much in the way of transformations or other special effects as this film rides on a modest budget. I give the actors credit for their part in trying to support a plot with little future. 4/10
