31 Posts Of Halloween: The Transfiguration

The Transfiguration is a 2016 vampire film, and it's probably the strangest vampire film I've seen in a while.

So, The Transfiguration follows a guy named Milo (Eric Ruffin) as he goes out and thinks he is a real vampire, and does some real vampire stuff like drink blood of his victims. He's still in school and lives with his older brother. Milo soon befriends/dates the new girl that moves into his apartment building, Sophie (Chloe Levine).
My thoughts? Well, this movie feels long, and by long I mean very long. There are a ton of scenes of no talking and I understand silence can be used to create mood, but it just drags. I felt like they could have easily cut 15 minutes from this film.
The acting in the movie is well done however. Eric Ruffin gives a good performance as does Chloe Levine. The actors are fine, and I would watch some of their other work if presented. I think the problem might have been the director wanting to go for more artistic shots rather than practical.
The Transfiguration has the bones of a good film. It has an interesting premise, and a good cast, but it wasn't constructed in the way it should have been.

final score: 2.6/5

I can't understate how funny this show can really be, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say about 90% of the jokes land. Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold. I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
