If you're seriously looking for a "horror" movie that contains more "WTF!?" moments in it than David Lynch's "Eraserhead", then this truly absurd and eccentric, little vampire flick (from 1932) may just be what you're hankering for.
Unfortunately - For me to say that "Vampyr" could have been a helluva lot better (on all counts) would definitely be an understatement.
But, with that said, "Vampyr's" creepy, grungy, grainy visuals did, at times, tend to have a nonsensical appeal to them (that was all their own). And, this, in turn, was what kept me watching this film even though I knew damn-well I should be shutting this sh*t off, like pronto!
Anyway - I will tell you one thing for certain - Had "Vampyr" been an American production (instead of a German one) nobody, I'm sure, would be giving a flying f*ck about it, one way, or the other. Nope. If that was the case, "Vampyr" would be dismissed without a second thought.
