Embrace of the Vampire Trailers

Sharon Hinnendael stars as Charlotte, a timid and sheltered teen who has just left an all-girls Catholic school for a new life at a co-ed university. But an ancient evil has followed her here, tormenting her with disturbing nightmares and tempting her with forbidden desires. It is a hunger that can only be satiated by sensual pleasures of the flesh...and a thirst for blood. It's a battle for her soul... and one she's losing. But Charlotte is a fighter. The chaos and torment threatens to unleash her own inner beast, and anyone even close to her may find themselves embracing their own horrific fate.

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
fireandrock Was expecting a Skinemax style mindless soft-core kinda movie, but this one exceeded my expectations. As a B-movie enthusiast, I watch a lot of terrible movies for fun. The plot, while not terribly original, was different enough from the usual vampire fare to keep me interested. For most of the first two thirds, there was enough going on to keep the ending from being too predictable, but after the reveal the resolution was pretty standard and a little disappointing. The acting wasn't anything special, but managed not to detract from the movie.Overall, this was much better than I was expecting. As a bonus,there was plenty of eye candy and a very nice lesbian scene. In my opinion, this one was actually better than the original.
M MALIK This film is another proof that remakes and reboots are never good for any franchise or even a single solo film that was released decades ago look at James Bond 007 series a fine example of how to kill something great a sequel is always appreciated but this is not the case with this film embrace of the vampire 2013 this film is lousy remake of a great project came out in 1995 starting Alyssa Milano.The acting is extremely annoying even kids do better then this all the hot ladies got wasted here even the lead actress Sharon Hinnendael does give her best but wrong story with awful direction ruined everything here.The concept of the original 1995 film & this one shares similarities but this one is entirely different in many ways the viewer is taken for granted here this is the slowest film for its genre have these people ever heard the word pace i guess not Carl Bessai maybe a good director but looks like he got confused here on how to execute this entire thing properly.The Plot:Charlotte comes to a university but soon bizarre things start to happen around her the evil force corrupts Charlotte she gets visions & more often when she is near professor Cole.The ending is laughable,cheesy & crazy at the same time aping other famous horror titles if anyone is looking at the poster thinking there might be some intimate scenes here they will be disappointed as there is one lesbian scene here which is shot badly not even a single good straight scene here.Just who allowed these people to ruin 90s epic that's right i am saying it anything that is from 90s is classic compared with todays nonsense,if this was so good it would have gone theatrical but it came direct to DVD it is just missing Steven Seagal or Dolph Lundgren.Overall do not waste your time with this boring dull remake & watch the original instead my rating for embrace of the vampire 2013 is 2/10:skipp it
stone_c91 This is a remake of the 1995 movie starring Alyssa Milano as Charlotte. You expect a remake would be good but this is not the case. Just like the original it was very bad. I have nothing good to write about this movie except the lesbian scene, the rest are all garbage. The female character in this movie is played by Sharon Hinnendael as Charlotte Hawthorn. Her character reminds me of Bella Swan from Twilight, shy and a quite girl. However she can't act and so are the rest of the cast member. Also the story line is so lame I could not bare to watch without pausing every 10 minutes. If you seen the original there's no point of seeing this movie, unless you skip to the " good part ".
bunty18 Well honestly there is nothing very special in Embrace of the Vampire and it wont make a difference if you skip it....The movie is not scary or thrilling and the climax is quit predictable as well. If you are expecting a little bit of action then you are in for a disappointment. As far as the acting is concerned, its not bad at all..... Sharon Hinnendael who plays the lead as Charlotte has done a fine job (though sometimes she does try to act like Kristen Stewart in Twilight...lolz), the other cast has done a good job as well, I wont say great but good.... The girls in the movie including Sharon show quite a bit of skin so that keeps it a bit interesting ha ha. The plot is simple, an Orphan girl goes to a top grade University for higher studies on scholarship, conveniently the university campus is in a beautiful hilly location, where an innocent Vampire just happens to be waiting for her for past 500 years or so...gah... If you are watching this movie for the story, thrill, suspense or horror element then you will be disappointed. However, if you feel like killing your time or like me you are a fan of vampire movies you might find it watchable.Overall nothing very special..... but I don't think anyone would get bored while watching it, for me this movie is a 4 out of 10.
