A couple of University students take over an apartment in an empty block that's due for demolition. They want a quiet place to study for a couple weeks and their relative has already moved out. The only other apartment with tenants turns out to be a trio of vampire ladies. One of the fellows falls for one of the vampire sisters without knowing she's a vampire. Sadly the film makers take the potential and do little with it. Wong Jing has turned in much better comedies in the past. The film lacks his usual flare, silly jokes and manic activity. There isn't much of anything going on way too often. Two people, out of four watching, fell asleep during the movie, one of them twice, this can't be a good sign. There isn't anything special or interesting about this movie, you'd be better off giving it a miss.

Dating a Vampire is inspired the Chinese Ghost Story films. Plot is something like this: Two hospital interns are increasingly concerned by the odd behavior of their three sexy neighbors who soon turn out to be bloodsucking fiends in this Chinese horror-comedy. Interesting movie with lots of fun but it also has few gore scenes. The biggest killer here is the action, or the lack thereof. When the finale rolls around, we get treated to supernatural types jumping at each other like in the wild HK films of old - except they do it here in slow motion with distracting strobe effects that are all but guaranteed to induce seizures. Director Clarence Fok also employs jerky step printing, unclear framing, and murky moving camera. These choices were likely made by the filmmakers to disguise the lack of budget and choreography, but really, they don't do a good job of doing that. I will rate it 6/10 Enjoy
