thanks for kill the franchise with this turkey and john carpenter and tommy lee wallace . this movie suck on so many level it pathetic . the first vampire be fun and but this low budget retread make me yawn . jon bon jovi ( the poor man kevin bacon ) drive around mexico with a surfboard housing a hidden compartment hold his vampire kill gear ala antonio banderas guitar case in desperado . he pick up some lame hunter along the way ( include an annoyingly feminist infected girl who take pill to keep from turn into a vampire ) and and they set out to stop some female master vampire who be give no backstory and so we could care less about her or her quest ( to walk in the sunlight by steal the black cross and perform a ritual to allow her to do so ) . if you have see the first vampire and you have already see this and and do much well . john carpenter have be responsible for a lot of bad movie lately . frankly and i think he past his prime and incapable of make another horror classic . the only decent film he do since they live ( 1987 ) be vampire . everything else be complete crap and right up until the unbelievably cheap look and retarded ghost of mar . and now this waste of celluloid . where be more great like assault on precinct 13 and halloween ( 1 ) and escape from new york and the thing . carpenter crony wallace prove he can not write his way out of a paper bag with his paper thin script pack with yawn and groan and recycle gag from the original . do i mention i hat every character in the movie . there be not a single memorable character in the whole film . how do that happen . this film have nothing to recommend it . not even the dvd presentation be good while the menu look awful . by comparison and jason x represent friday the 13th in space be a masterpiece . now that be how you make a sequel and ( re ) energize a franchise and lady and germ and as well a create an exciting dvd menu .
