"U.Made My Blood. BOIL!"
richard-wheeler25 November 2005
Warning: Spoilers
A fascinating story about an English couple called Joe Parker, who was a doctor. And Nina Harker, who was a teacher (Alex Jennings and Lia Williams). They adopted a child from Rumania due to his grandmother dying. The child's name was Valentine.

I could feel all the spooky moments in this film, especially with the music! Rumania is filled with mystery and wonder. Not so soon, someone else was taking Valentine home. It was an American family. Joe begged them to allow them to take Valentine home. And soon, the American family ended up dead and they went home in coffins. OOH! Those bodies looked cold and DEAD! That flash back of the incident was very haunting.

Later on, a guy named Stephen Irving (Steven Mackintosh) thought Joe was a vampire. Weird! Just because the child came from Rumania.And suddenly, a man named Mr.Ranfield fell victim to the plague of Valentine somehow. And Stephen kidnapped Valentine from one of his friend's houses. And Joe discovered Valentine in Stephen's boot. And then, Stephen admit that he killed the Amderican family because, they didn't take the "disease" that Valentine had seriously. They didn't know that they were adopting a child from a WITCH!

AND MORE!Joe's "lover" who was a nurse who worked with him named Jackie Shipton (Emilia Fox)committed suicide due to Joe not loving her anymore!And Stephen believed that Valentine's grandmother passed on an evil disease to Valentine. Joe also killed a TEACHER!When Joe picked Valentine up when Valentine wanted to see his mother. Valentine scratched him and Joe bled. Now this was the time when Joe believed Stephen. AND THEN! Nina killed Joe with a sharp object. She was jailed for it. And Valentine was taken away from Nina. Only, for a short while.

SPOOKY!!!!!!
