Vampire movie a subdued religious tone

Quite cool and unusual for a vampire movie. The structure of the film is a bit like Kurt Wimmers equilibrium with a subdued religious tone. It is a world after a plague that has wiped out large part of humanity.... Full review

An awesome SCI-FI HORROR, Vampire inspired yarn

stevepat99 - imdb.com
This film's premise is original, far beyond the traditional Vampire genre. A new, genetically empowered race of human/vampire like creatures has come forth, first despised but finally accepted as protectors of humanity. Early on we are told that this race... Full review

I saw a preview screening of this film without really knowing what it was about, and I was thoroughly impressed. The plot centres on an alternate world and time, the location being loosely set in New Zealand (based on the... Full review
A fascinating world

I thought this was a really good film. The world of the film - an alternate world where vampires are like priests who look after humanity and whom humanity respects - is original and feels very solid. When watching the... Full review
** possibly contains some SPOILERS ** Hearing absolutely nothing about this movie I recently got a chance to watch it and I have to admit I was slightly entertained. I would not put it in my top 10 or give... Full review

Exclaim! Canada
That setup doesn't sound like it would make for too bad a film but Perfect Creature really is terrible.....The cast and crew seem so excited by the basic ideas of the film....they overdo everything, suffocating all potential in hammy acting, overindulgent stylisation, schizophrenic editing and a plethora of cheap effects..... ...

Qwipster's Movie Reviews
While it certainly impresses in terms of the concepts, production values, acting, and direction, where Perfect Creature fails is in generating excitement through plot momentum. Perfect Creature is a grungy, stolid vampire film that generates intrigue in spots, but not enough to elevate it into the realm of worthwhile entertainment for those not already fascinated by the allure of science-based horror films. ...

Sci-fi and superhero fans may also enjoy "Perfect Creature" as well. Mini-Review: "Perfect Creature" went straight to DVD in the US, but I think it certainly deserved better. She also handles herself well in the action scenes. ... Full Review

Dougray Scott is fantastic. Burrows is beautiful and, as this character, seems strong but almost ethereally delicate. For the rest of us, however, I can strongly recommend this movie as a suspenseful and fanciful trip to a murky and romantic world. ... Full Review
