Strange things went on with the release of this flick. Released for cinema only two weeks later it was already available on DVD or Blu Ray. It was with a bitter feeling that I start watching this. I came across this title due my best friend asking if it was something to watch with our children. But I should not recommend it for children. Therefor too many things are shown that children never would understand.
It's full of old footage from old horror flicks like Metropolis and Nosferatu and so on. Further they return into time to see old footage from New York. I guess children wont understand it. But for horror buffs this is a trip to memory lane if you can guess all the flicks shown. and not alone that, they even speak of old actors and stuff.
The flick itself never becomes eery, it's a comedy but I must say that I never laughed. It's just a flick to watch with the family. The effects used are mostly CGI. I didn't have a problem with it because otherwise it would become an real horror flick.
The acting was okay for such a flick. Still, I think teenagers will have their doubts with all that footage used and wont understand it all. And for horror buffs this is a big joke. I watched it for Sigourney Weaver and Malcolm McDowell, old favorites from the genre.
Luckily it didn't laugh with vampirism or isn't ridiculous like Twilight. Just a flick that everyone can see, nothing more, nothing less. Funny to hear Das Pop in the soundtrack.
