Watch Brotherhood of Blood For Free

Wonderful Movie

Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

A lot of fun.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

As a team of vampire hunters tries to find the hideout of a deadly clan, a member joins forces with a kidnapped victim's brother to rescue him from their clutches before he's turned into one of them in order to lead them to a sacred talisman their leader desires.Frankly, this one should've been far better than it was, but instead is reduced to a humongous pile of plot confusion and far too much time spent on story lines that have either nothing to do with the main plot or are featured for no reason other than to build up the cast of genre veterans. That seems to be the main problem here, as far too often we have to sit through something that makes no sense as to it's inclusion only because of who's playing the character that finally clues you in to it's inclusion. There's some good gore in here, though, with the deaths being inflicted coming off as pretty gruesome and the action scenes are far more entertaining than they should be, with stand-outs including a frenetic shootout through the main lair as well as the ambush on the hunter's hideout that results in the trapping of one of the main vampires and the subsequent torture for information that's far more brutal than it should be in such an effort, but it's a little confusing and far too much built-for-star-power than it should be.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

"Brotherhood of Blood" is an excellent example of why films deserve to be written about, rather than simply awarded a star or number, since it is, at times, both appalling and incredibly effective and even disturbing.I thought this was a very good movie. The actors in this movie worked good together. I think the movie was interesting and made you think. It made you open your mind up to be more aware of what could happen and what people believe as true or untrue. It makes you look at good and evil in a different light. You also feel for the characters in this movie and you want to understand what they are trying to do and believe in.I would recommend this movie to anyone who was willing to watch something different. And if you enjoy B movies with good actors, as I do, I strongly recommend this movie to you.

I can see why "Brotherhood of Blood" would have difficulty being commercially successful. And that's too bad, because this is an excellent film. The "problem" leading to a commercial struggle is that the writers/directors created a very intelligent script that assumes the viewer does not need everything spelled out to them. This is a film that opens by placing us in the middle of a complex world, with a deep history, so that we have to pay attention and do a bit of detective work to get up to speed initially. The script is full of unexplained references to beliefs and traditions of Vampires and Vampire Hunters. It is densely packed with clever dialogue, subtle puns and other kinds of literary devices and references.This is not a light "popcorn" movie, and it is a slow burner. If you were not to fully pay attention and actively think about the film, you could easily become lost or confused.The performances are superb. the lead Carrie, the old vampire (Sid Haig), the captured vampire (Ken Foree), and the young Vampire all seem like real people with complex personalities and back stories. The ending of brotherhood of Blood cries out for a sequel, but not because the ending is at all incomplete, or because there was a monster who just wouldn't die. A 9 out of 10 from me.

Here's another memorable and interesting vampire movie, but one that left a little bit a bad taste in my mouth - because it was so low budget. Actually, as interesting as it is, it was a bit too profane, gory and with too many unlikeable characters for a nice guy like me to enjoy. The special-effects are good. Horror movies seem to bring out the best in the FX department.BROTHERHOOD OF BLOOD had the potential of being a great film, but it's a mishmash of interesting vampire or goth concepts with an art house touch. The cast is uniformly excellent. A great ensemble cast of actors: Sid Haig, Ken Foree, Jason Connery, William Snow and especially Victoria Pratt and Wes Ramsey who make a great young couple - he vampire, she the hunter. Those two have a lot of chemistry together! The best scene in the movie is when they pull the teeth of the captured vampire. Memorable moment there.
