Great story-some unfortunate stylistic and cinematic ideas

"Once you get past the awful stylistic choices, this movie has a compelling story line with likeable main characters. Unfortunately, the heavy stylized effects start off early when the good vampire's girl gets turned into a vampire by a jealous vampire girlfriend. It would be easy to dismiss the story at this point. The dancelike action-reaction scene falls short. But if you watch this movie, and get used to this style--the characters take over. The mother, turned vampire, trying to protect her son is terrific. At first, she doesn't even know she's a vampire. Resisting the urg to kill her boy,she eats the family's pet instead--a hamster--in a gruesomely funny scene. My favorite scene is when two thugs try to attack the newly born vampiress. They get the surprise of their lives.
I do have to say that whoever did the lighting in this movie needs help. There are other lights besides big key lights with gels( and more gel colors than two). But, in my humble opinion the movie is better than its production values. It's a fun little vampire flick."
Everyone who reviewed this movie is now my friend.
