with the sarcasm, that is! Here’s an excerpt from a New York Newsday review of BloodRayne that could do what the sun never really does to vampires–shrivel them to little ashes. Sheesh.
Half woman, half vampire, total baloney: The flesh is either displayed or digested in this inane takeoff on the video game of the same name…
The only thing left unsliced is the ham in “BloodRayne,” yet another video-game adaptation by German genre specialist Uwe Boll and a movie with more fading or faded talent than an Italian basketball team.
The main interesting thing about this movie [to me] is that its cast includes Billy Zane, who played Rose’s fiance, Cal, in “Titanic” and starred in a very entertaining bit of beefcake called “The Phantom” (based on the comic book superhero of the same name). I’m not sure I’d see “Bloodrayne” just for that, though!
