Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

kosmasp The movie just came out a couple of months ago in Germany. They retitled it "Kiss and Die". Go figure what and especially who makes those title changes. But what is more important, that the movie ain't half bad. If you like B-movies that is, because we don't get any new story elements or anything else out of it. There is a nice tweak here and there and it is nice to see Michael Biehn too. But overall the story and how it evolves is pretty predictable.Sean Patrick Flannery playing the main character is not the most likable guy out there. Or let's say not the one you can completely understand, even if he lays down his feelings (verbally). During the end credits there will be some footage. Though I'm not sure it is or will be what you expect it to be

TheLittleSongbird In fact I thought it was pretty good. And before I get accused of being a shill or part of the production team/company, I usually find that these types of movies are not done particularly well. I did find myself surprised by this, after convincing myself from the concept, which has been seen many times and often done in a cheesy fashion, that I'd hate it. But I'm glad I did give it a chance, as The Insatiable is much better than the concept makes out. Okay, it is not perfect, there are some slow-moving parts towards the beginning that made me think initially that it wouldn't be a good movie, the ending is rushed and I personally did find the character of Javier annoying. On the plus side, I thought technically The Insatiable was quite good. I know there are people who are not a fan of the techniques used, I'm not a fan really myself, however they are not over-used and they are not too cheap either. The scenery is more than just looking like somebody's basement and the make-up and such is also a vast improvement on other movies within the genre like Mutants and Vampegeddon. I've heard better music before, but also much worse and more over-bearing, while the sound effects aren't bizarre. The script does surprisingly have its fun and intelligent moments(I was in all honesty expecting cheese and a complete lack of flow), and the story while not completely perfect actually grabbed me, made the concept seem fresh and while mixing different genres it gave the vibe that it knew exactly what it wanted to be. On all those points, it does deserve a lot of credit in my eyes. On the most part, I liked the characters. I didn't care much for Javier(personal tastes of course), but the lead character I found easy to root for. The acting was also good, in Sean Patrick Flannery's case I'd go as far to say it was great. Charlotte Ayanna is not only gorgeous but also likable. Michael Biehn was good too but deserved more screen time. Overall, considering what I was dubiously expecting, The Insatiable was not bad at all. 7/10 Bethany Cox

jfurioli_2000 It's a B movie, so low-production value, some of the direction could have use a bit more transition scene to make the movie more fluid and the space more real but...The characters development, which is central to the movie, is excellent and keeps you hooked in. The scenes between the two main characters are strong: they are supported by dialogues that are simple but effective and both actors doing a fine job.I watched "Wanted", with Angelina Jolie, and "Insatiable" the same evening: the next day, "Insatiable" made a stronger impression on me.Whoever made this movie deserves a bigger budget.

MichaelWeihn Okay I watched the film & I'm not going to get real specific because I don't want to give away too much.Pros: Cast. Lead by Sean Patrick Flanery whom I've liked since Powder. He's great in this playing an introverted Superintendent and his apartment complex. That's only his part time job though. His day job is at some sort of steel parts office/warehouse. Michael of course adds grit & depth as a paraplegic Vampire hunter. Brad Rowe has a small but memorable part as a convenience store clerk.Plot. I like the direction of the storyline. I wasn't sure at first but it takes unexpected turns & with a pleasant surprise sort of ending-it rounds out things nicely. If you mesh Hellraiser, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Grease 2, here's what you would have. (no it's not a musical) but there are elements from these 3 movies that I found here.Cons: The size of Michael's role. After Michael joins the film at about 25 minutes-it seems he's going to have a huge part but doesn't. Although I enjoy the plot turns of the film-it kind of prevents Michael's part from being bigger.Acting. Not real happy with the female vampire's acting or Harry's (Sean Patrick Flanery) mean co-worker. Although I think she improved as the movie developed, I don't think his got better.All in all it was enjoyable, I'm happy with the result, and I'm glad I finally own it. It's not one of Michael's best nor is it one of his worst films. It would fall somewhere in the middle. As far as movies go it's a 10/10 because I'm biased but within only Michael's movies for a rating I'd say 6/10.
