A sharp and biting comedy that’s livelier than most other vampire movies.

“What We Do In The Shadows” is an off-the-wall, madcap and hilarious comedy. I didn’t absolutely love it, but it’s wacky style and gory dark humour kept me laughing from start-to-finish.

The cast did a terrific job, each character felt unique and distinctive, which made their interactions more entertaining and their conflicts more engaging to watch.

The tonal shifts throughout “W.W.D.I.T.S” are brilliantly balanced; the movie never becomes too gloomy or too upbeat, yet it still manages to remain consistent in its storytelling.

If you’re a fan of Taika Waititi’s wacky sense of humour, you will probably enjoy this film.
