Stumbling upon this 2022 fantasy horror movie here in 2023, by random chance, and seeing it is a vampire movie of sorts, then of course I opted to sit down and watch what director Riccardo Chemello had to offer.
Turns out that this movie was a swing and a miss in terms of entertaining me. I am really surprised with how writers Mauro Boselli, Giovanni Masi, Alberto Ostini and Mauro Uzzeo collectively could manage to come up with something so bland, devoid of entertainment value and just downright boring. This was without a doubt one of the most pointless vampire-based movies I have sat through in a long, long time.
The storyline in "Dampyr" fell through entirely, and I found nothing worthwhile or wholesome throughout the course of the 109 minutes that the ordeal lasted for. The only thing that made me cling on with my teeth and nails were the special effects.
Not only was the storyline lacking appeal to me, but the character gallery as well, and that just made it even more difficult to get submerged into the narrative and take the movie serious.
I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, and having just looked through the listing here on IMDb, I am very surprised to see that it was the Governor himself, actor David Morrissey, that played Gorka.
Truth be told, then the movie's cover was actually the best thing about the entire ordeal.
My rating of director Riccardo Chemello's 2022 movie "Dampyr" lands on a very generous two out of ten stars.
