The world seems to be ga-ga for vampirism; the inherent sexuality, the blood, the power - the elements come together each and every time to form the same movie, the only real difference is how the features are implemented. Bled definitely has a new angle on the vampire concept treating it as a mere means to be exploited for immortality instead of focusing on the immortality of vampirism itself. The blood of innocents sustaining the life of an immortal: old and mentioned in Bled. Where Bled hits a new vein is in how the vampirism exists and the elementary analysis of addiction that gets thrown in along with it.

Bled is a vampire movie without teeth. There’s literally and figuratively no bite to it. And not much bloodshed, either. Or sex. On the DVD’s audio commentary by producer Jeffrey Allard, director Christopher Hutson and composer Chris Kazmier, the filmmakers discuss their intention to “retool” the vampire film. If by this they mean defang and dilute the subgenre, well, then they were successful.
Horror fans will have a frustrating time sitting through a movie that plays like Twilight lite for “bit lit” readers. And sorry, ladies (and any “bit lit” gents out there), but Bled’s bloodsucker, Renfield (Jonathan Oldham), is no Robert Pattinson. I can’t believe I just said that…
