Night Teeth feels like it's trying way too hard to be edgy and cool, but honestly, it just annoyed me from the very first minute. It's as if the writers took every unlikeable trait from Hollywood's most insufferable personalities and slapped them onto a bunch of vampires. It might be a sign that I'm just not in sync with what passes for pop culture these days, but this one really missed the mark for me. It almost feels like the Twilight series has gone from pop culture phenomenon to something closer to a diagnosis.

The new Netflix vampire flick touted a variation of Collateral, but with vampires, but the result is a dull TV thriller with nothing to impress. A driver picks up two attractive women to drive them from party to party all night, but he soon finds out what their intentions are and that they're not exactly normal. It has quite nice visuals and the two attractive female vampires in the lead role are nice, they are probably the best thing about the whole film and make it watchable (Megan Fox also appears in a smaller role), but that’s not really enough. There is little action and it's not worth much, there is no gore, a bit of blood splashes on the wall from time to time, but that probably won't faze anyone today, there is no humour either, the plot is not worth much, so I really don't find much reason to see this film. For cooking, ironing or as a backdrop, maybe, but otherwise it's a pointless movie that Netflix probably won't make anyone happy with. Too bad the vampires don't do well at all. Story 2/5, Action 2/5, Humor 1/5, Violence 2/5, Fun 3/5 Music 3/5, Visuals 3/5, Atmosphere 2/5, Suspense 2/5, Emotion 1/5, Actors 2/5. 4/10.

Visually a very accomplished ride through a nocturnal Los Angeles full of vampires, blood, killing, and maybe even love. But also a film that focuses much more on world-building than storytelling. As a pilot for a series, it would be interesting, but if Netflix doesn't plan to utilize this vampire world in sequels, it's actually a bit of a pointless film – though a nice one at that.
