i have watched this movie repeatedly since it was released on video. it is not a vampire movie! it is in black and white. the blood is not red, the blood is a symbol.

we must accept the fact that we are imperfect beings. the more we attempt to help ourselves, the more we are lost, without an outside source.

i love this movie.

a key moment in the movie is when kathleen (lili taylor) sees the image of Christ, rips her clothing while she yells "I WILL NOT SUBMIT!!!!". it is a powerful moment. in the end she submits. she understands that she cannot, by herself, be fulfilled. losing herself in the addiction is simply a distraction from what is inevitable.

awesome freaking movie!
