The Breed [VHS] Review

The movie starts with two police detectives tracking a serial killer. They find the latest victim--but they also find her killer, who proceeds to attack them. One detective survives, and reports back to his superiors the bizarre acts he witnessed. He is informed that vampires do exist, and that he has survived an attack by one. In addition, the vampire community wants to find the killer as badly as the mortals do, and have provided the use of one of their own detectives, played by Adrian Paul (of "Highlander, the Series" fame). The mortal detective isn't thrilled to be working with one of the same types of creatures that killed his partner, but has little choice in the matter. And so begins a movie that is part buddy-picture, part supernatural thriller, and part old-fashioned murder mystery. In addition, the movie is set in a slightly Orwellian world--the colors are muted, and there are loudspeakers in the police station spewing rhetoric as the people go about their business. But some things remain the same--the Nazis did still exist, as Adrian Paul's Jewish vampire will attest. Indeed, there is a bit of metaphor throughout the movie with the vampires playing the part of the oppressed Jews. Enough about the subtext, however--how good is the movie?First, Adrian Paul plays one hell of a vampire. He's got a slight Polish accent that makes the character. He's also got an irritated sigh/grunt he breaks out whenever his partner says something really ridiculous that you won't be able to stop grinning at. He cuts to the chase, and he has little tolerance for flippancy--but he still possesses his own wry sense of humor, and his take on both the vampire and human worlds is priceless.And then there's his partner (whose name I don't recall). Brash, boorish, intentionally insensitive--your typical hard-boiled detective. He's also black, which doesn't have much to do with anything, except that the movie has a little fun with his racist attitude towards the vampires. Watching him plow through the strange world of the vampires is entertaining, as he tries to judge them by his own standards, yet finds himself having to admit that not all vampires are bad--especially the foxy lady vamp played by Ling Bai! For those worried that this movie is sounding too high-brow, you'll be relieved to know that the banter & social commentary are punctuated by pretty intense action scenes, featuring Matrix-esque gunplay and displays of vampiric might. Having seen Adrian Paul's Highlander character wielding a sword for several years, it was quite a fun change to see him engaging in two-fisted handgun action! Adrian Paul fans should definitely see this movie. Vampire fans should also see it, as the film does a good job of portraying an actual society of vampires, rather than just a few isolated indivduals. There are no big special effects, just lots of action and characters you'll enjoy getting to know. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews� Was this review helpful to you?
