I've never seen a more truthful brave film. I can't emphasize this enough.
You go into this movie expecting a horror and leave baring your soul to whoever will listen. Artistically inventive by sewing genre's together with care. Rather than boxing herself into a style for convention sake, Juliet chooses instead to tell her story the way she wants to. From the onset of the film you know exactly what truth she wants you to hear, and then from there she guides you through all the reasons why. Though the undead do walk in this film, this isn't a reimagining of Drusilla, the Sid & Nancy hybrid vampire from Buffy the Vampire Slayer that Juliet is rightly famous for but instead gives you a study on the diversity of evil.
Interwoven throughout this fictional thriller story are some familiar faces of Hollywood's vampirical elite giving their perspectives on evil. These documentary style interviews offer thought provoking moments to the story being told.
Juliet makes the case that some people raised by evil become a reflection of those that raised them, while others become emboldened to be anything but that reflection. The film illustrates the challenges one can face when struggling to fight those demons that take root as a child and grow along with you into adulthood.
I'm so moved by this film that I'm reminded how incredibly brave Carrie Fisher was with her autobiographies after her Star Wars fame. Inviting the world to see not everything in Hollywood is glitz and glamour even if you're on top. I think the world adored her more for it. In similar fashion I believe this film will have Juliet's fans adore her more for making it.
