I feel like me and my girlfriend are slowly losing each other. It’s like dying inside.
May 25th / 0 notes †What We Do In The Shadows
What We Do In The Shadows is a mockumentary style comedy in the vain of The Office. It follows a group of vampires as they share a flat together and try to integrate themselves into modern society and culture.
The style of comedy is definitely cringe humor. The cast nails this with many uncomfortable pauses and lines that are so forced and often go nowhere. This works to the films advantage as everybody plays it straight. This style is why I described it as being similar to the office.
I loved the little world building that was in the film. With the masquerade at the end and often a history of the vampires in that universe. There are also plenty of little nods to other vampire lore with Petyr clearly being a nod to Nosferatu and one of the flatmates being Vlad the Impaler.
There are also plenty of gory moments which may leave viewers a bit squirmish but again most of it just played for laughs. Especially when the werewolfs attack.
If the premise alone excites you then I would give this a watch. It’s not too long and it’s available on Netflix so if cringe humor and twilight bashing is your kind of thing then strap yourselves in.
