I would normally give something this weak a 1/10. It gets a 3 because it did have couple funny scenes in it and it was not a total waste of my time.
Problem is, it is great concept executed really badly. Acting is on par with maybe high school drama class. Actors deliver their lines extremely stiff. It was actually worse than soap operas.
Concept of restaurant owner making a deal with creature that is a cross between a vampire and something from H.P. Lovecraft books is awesome. And this could have been really solid film. But it is like someone wrote a skeletal script on a napkin, and then filled it up to extend the story with nothing but really, really bad filler scenes.
Ending felt forced. Not preplanned, and well thought out, but like someone simply decided "ok, I wrote enough, time to end this thing" and came up with one of dumbest endings for a movie of this type I have ever seen. And I see a LOT of films.
I understand that this was likely very low budget attempt and probably people involved had fun making it, and if this was one of those free straight-to-YouTube films it would be ok. But as a demonstration of anyones skill at film making, it utterly fails.
I wanted to like this film more. I really did.
