Darkfall Resurrection (2013) User Reviews

An interesting find in a DVD store

[fastpumacat · 6/10 · 14 June 2018]

The cover caught my eye and so I picked this DVD out from a pile. It looked different and is obviously an independent title, not Hollywood. The story-line is actually quite interesting and the movie is a quirky combination of old school make up effects and early Sci-Fi CGI stuff. There are some idiosyncrasies you won't get in the mainstream Hollywood, such as vampires becoming zombie like. I laughed several times and can see the director tried hard with a B grade cast. It had a sad ending, but I kept the movie in my collection because its so different.

Really... Really Bad.

This is a truly awful movie... Only watchable if you are making fun of it with a group of friends, and even then you had better be bad movie experts, as this movie gives you very little to work with. I do not think the creators of this bit of cinema art have even heard of the concept of lighting. 90% of this movie is just dark scenes full of people you don't care about talking in very bored sounding voices about some plot involving space werewolves. I could actually see some scenes where one of the actresses was trying not to laugh. About halfway through this turd, we are treated to a full length music video from what I assume is the directors crappy industrial band... only the sound quality is so terrible you can barely hear the music they are playing!! In addition to the aforementioned music video, the 70 minute running time is padded out with about 15 minutes worth of pointless framing story, and the credits of the movie seem very padded out and full of made up names. I refuse to believe that it took an 11 person CG department to create the Windows 95 era 3d effects, most of which are not even animated.

In summary... you have been warned!!

So bad, it's... bad.

This is a truly low budget movie with 1990's graphics. It has gratuitous vampires, werewolves, a spaceship and the obligatory missing plot.

The only way this movie should be watched is with a large group of friends... preferably drunk friends so you can laugh at the atrocious production values. I hope they didn't waste a lot of time or money making this movie. I know I wasted about 70 minutes watching it. I kept hoping for it to get better and it just got worse.

It appears they tried to merge a vampire versus werewolf movie with a cheap space drama. Even the fight sequences were terrible. You'd think that someone fighting for their life would be remotely interested in the goings-on. The werewolf CGI was horrible.

I hope the actors go forward to be in good movies because this one doesn't count.

If I'm being generous, I would rank this as a B-movie.

Awful.

This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Not even watchable as as a joke. What an embarrassment.

BETTER THAN STAR WARS!!

Movie Review

Hi, I am one of the few people who have had the chance to see this Movie. It is a very entertaining movie that just got better and better as it went along after a slow buildup to the main story.

It was a total surprise, the movie has some fantastic makeup, costume and visual effects which are comparable to the really big budget Hollywood Films. To the credit of the film makers, they have really pulled off a gem with Darkfall Resurrection considering it is an small independent Australian film with a fairly modest budget with no big name stars. The Acting was well rounded and executed by the cast with some standout performances by Hunter Macmahon and Jennifer Douglas who in my opinion steal the show with their on screen chemistry and many great one liners, this is also a credit to the writers.

Do not overlook this great little Aussie Movie, it is well worth seeing!!

Great Movie thumbs up

[Adolphomanncio · 9/10 · 11 September 2013]

This movie was a real surprise. I love the dark Gothic theme and the make up effects for the vampire characters worked well. The lead blonde character looks great and I really admire the bold special effects. The wacky story and comedy keep you engaged and watching through to the end, although the ending was a bit of an anti- climax for me as I wanted the film to keep going as I was really enjoying it. I can't wait for the sequel if there is going to be one or not? But it is an amazing concept Vampires and Werewolves in outer space with all kinds twists. I loved the the lead male character he is such a hunk! I really hope to see this guy in more movies as he is adorable. Real eye Candy for the ladies. I was also really surprised to find so many great characters in this movie. The music is fantastic, a real standout. This composer is going to be as big as John Williams in the future. A terrific effort! As I am a fan of classic film scores.

I love a quirky Sci-Fi movie with a bit of a twist. This movie started off well, then slowed down a bit for an off beat scene, then picked up again with great stuff that flowed through to the end. I'm not 100% sold on all the gore, but I really like the story and for an independent this feature seems to be a pretty good effort. There's some action and a dose of dark humour which makes for good entertainment. I loved the space battles in particular. There are some standout acting performances In this film. I loved the main Vampire, It reminded me of Bela Lugosi. A great find , great casting and very convincing makeup effects by the makeup crew, obviously They seem to have done their homework on this film. A very entertaining film.

Unexpected good Surprise!!!

[Casselders · 10/10 · 24 April 2014]

I recently saw this Australian Sci-Fi film and I was very surprised, just how good the story was, it was different from other Vampire movies that I had seen before. It didn't have the same clichés, and it was good to return to an old time when Vampire movies were great for the story. It reminded me of Hammer Horror classics with an Outer space twist.

I was really comfortable watching it because these days we get so over whelmed by Hollywood razzle dazzle that the story suffers. I loved the character of Alexandra she was strong without all the sloppiness you might have expected.

I give this movie a Big Thumbs up! I want to buy a hard copy of it on Amazon but it is not yet released?..

Great movie

[j-kara · 10/10 · 12 June 2013]

Great movie, was really enjoyable. Must see movie loved the makeup Loved the costumes Great performance all round Loved the concept of Vampires form outer space

I think this movie will set up bigger things for the producers. I would have loved the movie to be turned into a series. I was left wanting more and more. I particularly liked the lead characters interpretation of the main theme. Be great to see this movie on the big screen. Is it available in 3D. When is it going to be released on video? Are there any other movies coming up??. I recall the hobbit guy (Peter Jackson) making a similar start in the industry, this can only lead to bigger and better things for these guys. Well done
