Paints a pleasingly Gothic tone, yet manages to feel more like a TV pilot with open-ended storylines rather than a well rounded movie.
April Fool… of fear: Daily Horror Hunt #22- April Horror14. Watch a horror with the word Creature in the title
This immediately brought to my mind the tv series 'Sanctuary' (which I liked way back when).
This, as a feature film, not so much...
If it was actually the pilot for a series, I'd probably keep watching just to see where it went. There's enough unanswered plot threads to do it and possibly make it interesting for 1 season.
This flick looks like a pilot to a TV series. It's more action than horror, like Underworld. It happens in the future, but the future in the movie seems old. There's blood, but not much. An average movie.
An Underworld rip-off that sets itself in some vague time in the past in an attempt to be less obvious that it’s a rip-off. It was so bland that I couldn’t even dislike it. It was just something that was in the room at the same time I was.
This was all over the place, film noir, vampires, steam punk, wwII imagery. And it still manages to bore you with its story and characters. Missed change.
Perfect Creature has the visuals and story to make a fun and interesting action-thriller with a sprinkle of horror. But it gives so little of those exciting elements that in the end, it became more of a failed attempt at jumpstarting a movie franchise or a TV pilot that got a whole TV series axed.
Not bad but the story have to few threads I think.
I like this word. Mix of victorian style estetic maybe not so much to steam punk direction but we also have the high tech society under the surface.
Dystopian world with vampires and humans that co exist but someone got murdered and a human and vampire investigator have to find out whats going on.
Some of the cgi doesnt look that impressive but the idea what this word should look like is quite clear and it looks good.
New Zealand director Glenn Standring made his directorial debut with The Irrefutable Truth About Demons, which conducted a fair trip through the cliches of the occult film and enjoyed reasonable success in international release. Perfect Creature was Glenn Standring’s follow-up. Standring has a much better budget than he did with The Irrefutable Truth About Demons and the backing of an American distributor (20th Century Fox), as well as enough money on hand to import a handful of at least B-list international stars – Dougray Scott, Saffron Burrows, Stuart Wilson. After being in the pipeline for several years, Perfect Creature finally enjoyed a cinematic release in New Zealand in 2007.
What strikes one about Perfect Creature is the scale of Glenn…
I really was expecting unoriginal and silly trash from the poster art, but the idea ended up being quite unique and interesting. Not the best but worth a watch.
A sick bio engineered vampire starts spreading his plague to who ever comes in his path. It's a semi generic but stylish vampire flick like Daybreakers or Underworld.
I wanted to like this film a lot more than I did, but it just didn't come together into a very entertaining whole. The setting, while interesting, is not very well-established and ends up being underutilized. Some of the editing choices were rather unintentionally comedic and took me out of the film. Echoing what other reviewers have said, I would have enjoyed this a lot more as a pilot to a full TV series than the movie that we got.
I really liked seeing Edgar in That Contraption though :3
La criatura será perfecta, pero la peli es sosita.
Te gustará si: te gusta Priest.
