maryhayden This movie has a few problems to be sure but overall it is a good vampire genre movie. The acting is serviceable with the exception of Rory J. Saper. Saper played his vampire coming-of-age with adolescent awkwardness, ferocity and a touching sweetness. He was in almost all of the scenes and frankly saved the movie from 2 star territory. The story's main plot points have been seen in the genre before, but having the movie use a very small cast in a quite narrowly defined setting added some freshness. The dialogue was clunky in places and the pacing seemed a little off at times. Worth watching

Douglas Skinner I clicked the spoiler box because, basically nothing happens in this movie and some may consider that in itself to be a spoiler. Nothing happens that is, but the perambulations of a very weird young man who is "sort of" a vampire but most of the time is a downcast boy looking for sympathy. Why? He does commit some murders but we are supposed to see them as justified. Such justification as there is occurs only because a genre of vampire movies has sprung up in which vampires are basically the good guys--oppressed minorities--who are misunderstood. Once seen as purely evil characters who fully justified their flaming ends (they were usually burned up with dawn's early light), I suppose the dilution of moral categories which has been the result of our relativistic, therapeutic culture, has also lead to the "destigmatization" of the vampire archetype--to use academic mumbo jumbo.I suppose you could say he is kind of a symbol for his generation: epicene, scrawny, scruffy, hangdog with no point or purpose in life, doing nothing except having a little dull sex in a small town. His mystery or supernatural nature is not enough to hold one's attention. I kept waiting for some action and some reason to be interested in Rufus but he lets you down; including an ending to the movie that is both improbable and corny.

kosmasp I guess some people would call their dog Rufus. But in this case we get something different (what? You have to watch to find out). Rufus has a really stellar cast with an interesting spin on a sort of known story. There is violence and there are relationships built that lead to an inevitable conclusion. A conclusion or a way the story goes, that is very predictable.Still the movie is about the ride and about finding out and seeing those relationships evolve or develop. It's not easy to avoid the cliché trap, but the movie does so in some occasions. A person is not only one thing (the thing he/she appears to be), it's more complex than that ... and we get to see some of those sides here. A difficult task that the movie almost completely masters
