“V for Vendetta,” directed by Kelly Hallihan and written by Steven Paul and Peter Moore Smith, features a plot centered on three sisters whose parents were murdered when they were children.
Adopted by a controversial vampire, Thorn, two of the sisters, Emma and Scarlett, eventually break ties after experiencing a kind of Stockholm syndrome.
Kate, the third sister, is rescued by another vampire, Bullseye, without the knowledge of the other two.
The plot unfolds when Thorn discovers that Kate is alive and has completed her parents’ project to develop a vaccine that cures vampires.
The sisters also have a rare type V blood, which is essential for the antidote. They also unknowingly became vampires at some point in their lives.
THE filmalthough full of bad acting, low budget and questionable effects, incorporates typical elements of a B movie. It offers peculiar and violent entertainment that may appeal to a specific audience.
In turn, the story lacks depth when exploring the sisters’ experiences from the death of their parents to adulthood.
Living with Thorn is mentioned, but the details of how they came to accept living with their parents’ killer and the process of becoming vampires remain unclear.
Despite its flaws, the film stands out for its mix of action and surrealism, appealing to those who enjoy a quirky approach and extravagant action.
These are characteristics that would appeal to a filmmaker like Quentin Tarantino.
