I just got back from watching it. I thought it was great. The visuals really captured the look of the artwork which was a surprise for me.

A word of advice though for fans of the comic. Don't go in hoping for word for word dialogue from the books. There are some liberties taken with the story, but it still rocked :grin:

I've never actually read the comic, but I wikipediad it and it sounds pretty good too

Great all around horror/vampire movie.

Just about of gore, and scariness. I really enjoyed it.

True... but they do a good job making the story convincing for a movie adaptation. I was just shocked how much they expanded yet it all worked!

On the nitpicky side, I felt the last fight when Eben turns felt a little anti-climatic. I've always imagine it being epic. But then I flipped through the book and I realize that it's almost shot panel by panel. Guess that's one of the advantages of being a comic book: you fill in the blanks that Ben Templesmith leaves you and become your own director

Definitely go see this! :BOT:

I'm a bit biased since I thought she was hot in Alias. But I thought she did a good job on acting.

Although it wasn't like she was wearing a bikini, her outfit in the movie didn't really scream "winter clothes" at times. :CON:

I saw it a couple of days ago. The first half of the movie was top notch, though it kinda got campy once we got the the survivor thing, but still a worth while movie to see.
