This is Frankenstein story. Creating something from death.
This movie is both compelling and disturbing, keeping you glued to the screen but constantly cringing. The vampiric plot of this movie is obvious, reminding at moments of The Dark Crystal {also a vampire movie}
The lead character has little dialog but manages to express himself with a much greater easy with just a stare.
It's based on a novel.
You can not truly capture the soul of someone without first loosing yours. To be a god is to be neither angelic or demonic but to be neutral, and that innocence can not be bottled for long.
