Moody.<\/p>\n<p>Scores: Technical: 70, Story: 45, Acting: 40, Overall: 55<\/p>\n<p>Ever since I heard that one of my favorite singers Ivan Moody (Five Finger Death Punch, Motograter) , was going to be in a horror flick, I have been anxiously awaiting (with white knuckles) for the finished product. This was one of those movies that you want to like even before you see it, and trust me; I tried very hard to like it. It just didn\u2019t have any guts. No plot, no thrills, no horror, nothing! It was such a disappointment; I cringe just talking about it..<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sai, a young artist living in a downtown loft unknowingly gets sucked into a world of blood and lust. An enigmatic foreigner seduces her to try a long forgotten drug making her the prey of a dimensional vampire who needs her new found hunger for blood to cross over from his world to hers.&#8221; (SOURCE: IMDB) So what should you expect? This is the kind of movie that will connect with a small amount of people, the artsy, underground kind of movie watcher. I am not that kind of viewer. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I like meaningful metaphoric films, but it has to be done right, and this movie just doesn\u2019t deliver on any level.<\/p>\n<p>There are some good spots and I don\u2019t want to leave them out. First, Ivan Moody, who played the Incubus, was definitely creepy. The make-up on his character was very scary and I believe his mannerisms made the creature much more terrifying. I also really enjoyed the &#8220;dream world&#8221; or whatever the other world was supposed to be. The sets and cinematography during those scenes seemed like they were filmed and directed by another team.<\/p>\n<p>The movie in general was just too slow and too jumbled. For having an R rating it was surprisingly dull in violence, I\u2019m not even sure why it was rated R. I never got to know any of the characters, so I lost that empathy factor, and I did not like the actors. They were just the wrong cast for this film. So I suggest you pass on this film, if you do watch it, and like it, I would love to hear why.<\/p>\n<p>By Dave Minyard<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13609\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13609\" style=\"width: 294px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/bled_movie_poster.jpg\" alt=\"Bled Movie Poster\" title=\"Bled Movie Poster\" width=\"294\" height=\"400\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13609\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/bled_movie_poster.jpg 294w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/bled_movie_poster-220x300.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 294px) 100vw, 294px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13609\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bled Movie Poster<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Bled Directed by: Christopher Hutson Starring: Sarah Farooqui, Chris Ivan Cevic, Alex Petrovitch, Michele Morrow and Ivan L.
