My Thoughts:
I always enjoyed this movie. But it has been a long while since I last watched. I always preferred the first half of the movie over the second one though. I am not a big fan of the look of the vampires in this movie.

I Kissed a Vampire, a review by addicted2dvd


     I Kissed a Vampire (2012/)
Trailer |IMDb |Wikipedia |
(United States)
Director:Chris Sean Nolan
Writing:
Length:0 min.
Video:Widescreen :1
Audio:
Subtitles:

Stars:
Lucas Grabeel as Dylan Knight
Drew Seeley as Trey Sylvania
Adrian Slade as Sara Lane
Chris Coppola as Dr. Dan Helsing
Amy Paffrath as Luna Dark

Plot:
Haunted by bizarre dreams about Goth rocker Trey Sylvania (DREW SEELEY), and experiencing a growing lust for blood, Dylan (LUCAS GRABEEL), a not-so-average teenager finds himself transforming into a vampire! It all started when he was bitten by a voracious fanged exchange student, and it's a process he is desperate to stop - but how? His demented dentist can't do anything about Dylan's aching teeth and emerging fangs, and the anti-bloodsucking pills he gets from his para-psychologist just give him a rash. Dylan is terrified and he doesn't know what to do - especially about his beautiful girlfriend Sara (ADRIAN SLADE).

My Thoughts:

This is another one I watched on Amazon Prime. It was entertaining enough to keep my attention through-out the film. But I would say really not much more then average. Some characters I liked... but others was just plain annoying. I may add it to my collection at some point if I find it very cheap or for free. But it really isn't something I would go searching for.

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom


Enterprise
Season 1.11 Cold Front
Writer: Gene Roddenberry (Original Characters By), Rick Berman (Created By), Brannon Braga (Created By), Stephen Beck (Writer), Tim Finch (Writer)
Director: Robert Duncan McNeill
Cast: Scott Bakula (Jonathan Archer), John Billingsley (Dr. Phlox), Jolene Blalock (T'Pol), Dominic Keating (Malcolm Reed), Anthony Montgomery (Travis Mayweather), Linda Park (Hoshi Sato), Connor Trinneer (Charles "Trip" Tucker III), John Fleck (Silik), Matt Winston (Daniels), Michael O'Hagan (Captain Fraddock), Joseph Hindy (Prah Mantoos), Leonard Keely-Young (Sonsorra), Lamont D. Thompson (N.D. Alien Pilgrim)

Finally I arrived at the last Star Trek series to watch its time-travel episodes. In this one, there is a crewman who claims to be from 900 years in the future trying to capture a saboteur. It is not really something new, but it is an okay episode which sets up the temporal cold war storyline of the series.
