This definitely turned out to be a non-typical vampire movie. While this one starts out very funny the story suddenly becomes very serious and dark. The acting was decent enough and the story was mediocre at best. I guess the bottom line is that for a vampire film fan like myself I found the movie entertaining and a good way to kill a few hours. THe movie is a bit long and at times the story seemed to drag on in certain areas. The film goes from being funny to being dead serious. It mixes in vampire lore mixed with some zombie plague. The real challenge I found with this movie is discovering where the heck did the vampire disease start from and how? Its evident that the protagonist gets infected at the very beginning of the movie, but what is the story of those who infected him and why hadn't the disease spread further in Afganistan where the initial infection takes place? Decent movie!
