this is one of the best vampire movies around (which isn't saying too much as most of them suck.) the characters draw you in and the style of storytelling, although a little difficult to follow at first, really works with the plot-lines to allow you to think about and experience what happens. the only real drawback is that the animation was a little too static. all in all, this goes in my top 5 vampire movies (position 2 or 3.)
