If this movie's title caught your attention on your local streaming service, you'll probably like it. I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. In fact, I enjoyed this so much, I would watch a sequel!
The story is what the IMDBs says it is, old friends reuniting over a drinking game that may or may not be from hell. Of course, nobody reads the rules, so how were any of them supposed to know that before they started drinking? The acting was good, I enjoyed the cast's chemistry. It was surprisingly good considering the characters seem to have almost nothing in common.
It has some funny, some thrills and something for your feelers. You'll probably like it.

Remember this is a movie. With Kate Beckinsale in an action role. So you should have an idea what to expect.
Although, I love ridiculous action movies like this one, I was hesitant because of Beckinsale. But Stanley Tucci is in it, so I made a compromise. No regrets. I thought Kate did a great job (for her), taking advantage of her character's unique condition and adding a sick sense of humour. Granted the writing wasn't the best, with a premise like this I wouldn't expect much more.
Summary: It's only 90 mins, it scratches the action itch and made me laugh.
Enjoy!

I'm always digging for b-horror movies, it's one of the great things on the world wide web. That said, the filmmakers on the set of "Aleta: Empress Vampire" seemed to have low expectations in the audience they would attract.
10 minutes into this simple yet over explained plot, I felt like an idiot for hitting 'play'. I just thought the idea of mixing some Chinese history into the cliche vampire story could be interesting and if all else failed at least there were boobs ( the boobs were the sole reason I gave it 2 stars instead of 1, judge me if you want but look where you are, why are you reading this?).
Writing wise, there was only one moment in the movie, during Aleta's backstory, where I thought 'interesting', the rest I just felt disrespected as an audience member. Here's my list of technical issues I found too distracting to stay focused; the camera man has clearly never watched a movie or tv (nor the director for that matter), most of the special effects were obviously added in post, there were no sound effects just whatever the mic picked up, the fake accents were really bad and completely unnecessary, the acting is pretty much what you would expect...I could go on but I wouldn't want to spoil all the "fun".
The things the director seemed to care about didn't make any sense and the things the director should have cared about he didn't at all because the audience will probably be too dumb to notice. I guess the issue is on my side of the screen because I know how the laces in my shoes work and I don't drool when I talk.
If they tried to make this funny it could have worked, there were some unintentionally funny moments that made me wish the "filmmakers" didn't take themselves so seriously. I find it hard to believe that everybody behind the camera was proud of this one.
That's my honest opinion, I'm not going to tell you what to do.
