Watch The Last Sect For Free

the audience applauded

Just what I expected

Excellent but underrated film

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

This is not a 3.9. This is one of the best horror films of all time. 9 out of 10 is want I give it. It is Dracula sequel. There are a lot of Dracula sequels. And most of then are underrated. Even the few that are not very good are not as bad as they are rated to be. I can think one that are only 3.9. Nosferatu (1979). And that one got really good rating. This movie has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. It is very scary. Dracula (March 1931) is better. But still this a good movie. It is better then Dracula (April 1931). Dracula (1992) is better. Nosferatu (1922) is better. But this is one of the scariest movie you will ever see. It is scarier then The Shinning. And that is not easy to do. It not even that easy to be scarier then Dracula (April 1931). This is a great movie. See it.

I can't understand why people have been so critical of this film. Mostly it seems to be dangerous porn addicts who were longing for a seedy B-movie lesbian vampire romp (and don't get me wrong, who isn't?) or those more dedicated to the gore and fast pace of more aggressive movies along these lines.For a start, the cast is as competent as any I've ever seen on Zone Horror (Where I've just seen the film) and I daresay more accomplished than those boasted by half the Hollywood "blockbusters" you'll find in cinema's today. David Carradine (of kill bill fame) plays an ageing Van Helsing with all the world-weariness and academia of a vampire hunter past his best still clinging to the golden olden days of vamp-bashing. Julian Richings deserves special mention as well for probably the finest representation of a vampire hunter I've seen; icy cold, refined and single-minded with the skill of an artisan he is far more believable, and slightly creepy and unsettling, than your buffy or angel.Another mention has to go to the production value of the film, it just looks great. The sets are punching above their weight and the budget is spent so that not only is the cast more than adequate, the setting, camera-work and film quality are also quality. The storyline is what possibly puts some people off the film, and while the script is robust and well-acted, it is a marathon runner of a film rather than a sprinter, the action sequences that do occur are very well organised and executed without top-end million-dollar special effects. If you really enjoy the characters, it's a tremendously involving film.It can't be escaped that the lesbian theme bubbles along under the surface (all the more fun) but the film has difficulty settling into a genre which demands more of either extreme. The soundtrack courtesy of the Duke Spirit is well suited and there are very few moments where it shows signs of reverting back to Zone Horror type. All in all, when you consider what went into this movie and what they managed to get out of it, it's something I'd much rather go see than the cardboard cutout that is jessica alba or the latest flog of the dead Star Wars horse. To those who'll give it a try, bear in mind it will never be a mind-blower, but as far as enjoyment and entertainment goes (along with some surrealist cutaways and occasional lesbian kissing scenes) it is a film I would definitely recommend! Remember what it is and you will definitely NOT be disappointed!!

The Last Sect starts as journalist Sydney St. James (Natalie Brown) & her photographer Sam Francis (Sebastien Roberts) visit the headquarters of an on-line dating agency called Artemis, they meet the mysterious female owner named Anna (Deborah Odell) who is in fact an ancient Vampire who uses the website to lure victims to her & her female Vampire sect. Meanwhile Vampire hunter Dr. Abraham Van Helsing (David Carradine) has learned of the existence & activities of Artemis, he realises that Anna & her Vampire sect need to regenerate & in order to do so they need a willing female host body to store their soul's in & it seems Sydney is their choice. Can Van Helsing destroy the last sect of Vampires on Earth & save Sydney?This Canadian production was directed by Jonathan Dueck & is truly one of the worst films I have seen this year so far & believe me when I say it's up against some pretty dire competition, The Last Sect is quite simply a film in which I see no redeeming qualities at all apart from the fact that the female lead Natalie Brown is very attractive. The script by David Robbeson is really bad, on paper the idea about female Vampires luring victims to themselves through an on-line dating agency is a little daft but had potential for lots of blood, boobs & action. Unfortunately the script takes itself 110% seriously & ends up being one of the most boring & anaemic Vampire films of recent times, it feels more like a tedious drama than a horror flick about Vampires. If The Last Sect was any slower it would be going backwards! I am not even sure why the makers decided to use traditional Hollywood Vampire film lore like having a Abraham Van Helsing & calling it's monsters Vampires when there isn't any proper Vampire action in it, sure these things have fangs but otherwise there's little to indicate they are Vampires. Most of the film is made up of annoyingly slow dreams & hallucinations as Anna & her Vampires try to convince Sydney to be their host body which has nothing to do with Vampirism at all. There's a really awful ending as well, with Van Helsing & his assistant sitting in their home there's a knock on the door & then that's it it finishes! A knock on the door? Wow, now that's a dramatic & scary ending, right?Besides hating the slow moving story I also hated the way The Last Sect was filmed, director Dueck films everything with all the colours muted & at times it looks like it's black and white. I hate it, why do director's feel the need to bleach all the colour out of a picture? It's annoying, as a concession to style the only colour that stands out is red & since that this is a film about blood drinking Vampires & blood is obviously red I don't think that's a coincidence. There's a very fake looking decapitated head, a slit throat that doesn't bleed & that's it for gore. There's no horror here either, there's no suspense, no tension, no atmosphere & the story is just so boring.According to the IMDb The Last Sect had a budget of about $3,000,000 which amazes me, nothing & I mean nothing happens & I just can't see where all the money went. There are no special effects to speak of, no big stars, no action set-pieces & a very small cast & set of locations so where did all that money go? Personally I think it had a much lower budget than that. Apparently filmed in Hamilton in Ontario in Canada during December 2005. The acting is adequate, as already mentioned Natalie Brown helps since she's nice & easy on the eyes. David Carradine phones in his performance.The Last Sect is a truly dire Vampire film that barely feels like a horror film let alone one about Vampires, easily one of the worst films I have seen this year & believe me I have seen some serious turkey's.

The journalist Sydney St. James (Natalie Brown) is writing an article for the magazine where she works about the on-line dating agency Artemis that is specialized in women. She schedules an interview with the owner of Artemis, Anna (Deborah Odell), and she visits the mysterious woman with her photographer Sam (Sebastien Roberts), who is fascinated by a site called Vampire Web. Sidney feels a great attraction for Anna, who is actually an ancient vampire called Anastasia. Meanwhile the vampire hunter Dr. Abraham Van Helsing (David Carradine) is advised by his assistant Tone (Jordan Van Dyck) about the correlation between Artemis and the Vampire Web, and Van Helsing explains that in every turn of millennium, the vampire sect needs to regenerate, using a woman for this purpose. Van Helsing calls his partner Karpov (Julian Richings) and together they go to Artemis to fight against Anastasia and her sect.I bought this DVD first because I love vampire movies; then the art of the cover of the DVD is extremely attractive; and last but not the least, the name of David Carradine in the credits is a plus. Yesterday night, my wife and I tried to watch this movie but we took many naps so boring it was, and in the end of about 45 minutes running time, we decided to stop "The Last Sect" and watch another one. Today in the end of the afternoon, I have decided to watch this movie again from the very beginning (my wife simply gave up), and I could prove that it is one of the worst vampire movies I have ever seen. The story has a terrible screenplay that develops the plot in a very low pace in three or four locations without the atmosphere of a vampire movie. David Carradine seems to be bored with his lines and the weird Jordan Van Dyck, whose character seems to be a gay living with Dr. Van Helsing but never his assistant. The story has no horror, no tension, no suspense, only some lesbian daydreams and Internet footages with the classic vampires. The lead actresses (Natalie Brown and Deborah Odell) are sexy and gorgeous, but even their sex scenes are boring. In the end, "The Last Sect" is recommended for insomniacs and more effective than sleeping pills. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "A Última Seita" ("The Last Sect")
