The Humanist Vampire movie is French* and very droll, dark humour. Absolutely delightful. An obvious reference point is A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night but even though this is the same territory it is pitch perfect and funny as. *Canadian but shot in French with English subtitles. Directed by Ariane Louis-Seize who is a Canadian film director and screenwriter from Quebec. I have a collection of Michel Tournier short stories which all get told on one night. You think you know what is going to happen but the telling of the stories changes the light and space imperceptibly at first. The same thing happens in this film. Most of it takes pace on a single night and as each miniature story is told the tone shifts. Vampire humaniste cherche suicidaire consentant is the French title. I think having suicide in the title is tricky because the suicide is complex and not funny but here it works. A family of vampires is concerned for their daughter. Kind of Soprano's family drama meets Hal Hartley with comic cameos by the whole family. The lead actor gives a Elina Löwensohn vibe. Intense but droll and understated. As a non French speaker it may read differently in French but even without sub titles it is still enjoyable and a delight. At one point two leads are just adorable dorks dancing in the dark to the song Emotions by Brenda Lee That song dates from 1960 and Brenda is still alive. The song is just fabulous. Look it up on YouTube.

Serious spoilers about the film. Do not read until you have watched it! Each vampire story\film\TV show has it's own lore. Some overlap, but each has its own rules about being a vampire. Or making someone a vampire. I like Anne Rice's take on the transformation from person to vamp. Takes three days and is messy as all get out as the human body transforms into the vampire body. It sheds all it's internal soft tissue and gentiles! Vamp sex in her books is the sharing of blood (so ignore the current TV show which gets it all wrong). In this tale, all it takes is for someone to be drained but not killed. Not even having to ingest some vamp blood! It is then suggested that the maker and made are bonded. Also, apparently, vamps can mate and have vampire offspring. That is how Sasha came to be. Also, they age slower, not living forever. Example: When Sasha meets Paul she is 68 but looks like a teenager. As for other aspects, after three quarters of the movie I honestly found Sasha's reluctance to drain and kill people annoying. I felt like "Oh c'mon and kill him!" When she finally kills it is in defense of Paul. And in trying to turn Paul, she thinks she has killed him. But no. Paul's mom works as a nurse and while it is against rules to tell humans what they are, apparently mom is on board and gives terminally ill patients to the duo; solving the murder aspect of being a vampire (they drain the blood through an IV thus leaving no tell tale marks).

I saw this movie at the OKC Dead Center film festival and really enjoyed it. The actress who played Sasha did so in a manner that allowed you to emphasize with her struggle. She's a vampire but doesn't want to kill humans to survive. As she ages, she's thrown into a situation where she has to make some difficult decisions to survive. In doing so, she finds out a lot about herself and what she will condone and what she won't. Paul was another interesting character who's not been happy with life for as long as he can remember. The interaction between he and Sasha starts out a bit awards based on the premise that he wants to die and he knows that she needs his blood to survive. However, as the story progresses, their interaction changes and seems more natural. I liked out the movie ended and let us know what ultimately happened to these characters.

One of the best independent films I've seen in recent years. When I decided to watch it, I was expecting a trashy comedy, the kind that Taika Waititi made about ten years ago. But this film really surprised me. As soon as I started looking at it, I immediately realized that it was exactly what I had been looking for for a long time. I really enjoyed the film "Only Lovers Left Alive" by Jim Jarmusch and I was really sad to think that I wouldn't see another story like this, so well stylized. From the first minutes, I noticed the director's unique artistic touch. This film has all the elements of a cult film: the music, the work on lighting, the eccentric acting, the meticulous respect for the canon, and above all a huge dose of satire (and all of that pushed to the limit) It's truly a great film (even if it may seem funny to say), which should not be approached with any particular expectations. It will surprise even the most passionate movie geek about vampires I recently watched "The Last Voyage of the Demeter". It certainly brought something new to the genre, but it didn't provoke any emotion in me. And I'm also looking forward to the new "Nosferatu" by Robert Eggers, which I'm sure will be a masterpiece, a reinterpretation of a classic *There are moments that are a bit cringe * Definitely 9 out of 10.

Humanist vampire is nothing new and dull. This film is about a vampire who doesn't want to kill. Although her surroundings try to force her to do so, as killing would be the only way that she would survive. One day she meets a boy who is willing to sacrifice himself, from there on the story continues. This film is being advertised as a comedy film, I wish I laughed but I didn't at all. Overal the jokes are dull, just like the story. It isn't exciting and feels very much cliche, although that is maybe because it is a vampire themed film after all. The acting was good, especially the acting of the two main characters, who you could really feel for. The emotions they are going through and seeing how they feel stuck, not knowing how to get out until they meet each other. Those scenes about their desperation with only them in them made the film worth a 8 but the rest of the story pretty much dragged it all down. If the rest of the scenes were as good as those couple of scenes it would have been worth a recommendation, even more than that. But unfortunately that isn't the case. In the end I wouldn't recommend this film, only if you are bored you it is worth to consider it.

See this as soon as you can ! A movie that seems tailor made for me. Melancholy Dark-Humor mixed with french by way of Québec styling all wrapped up in a vampire love story I could not more highly recommend this movie Sara Montpetit gives a beautiful performance as a vampire who, due to a traumatic early age clown encounter (honestly who can't relate to that), finds herself unable to kill people so that she can feed on their blood. She pairs perfectly with Félix-Antoine Bénard who completely embodies the character of Paul, a depressed homebody who finds himself contemplating suicide. Wonderfully composed and gorgeously shot scenes by cinematographer Shawn Pavlin raise the script written and directed by Ariane Louis-Seize to a perfect movie.
