Misunderstood

I loved this film. When i saw it i was really surprised because of its beauty. But when i entered here i read a lot of comments critisicing it. Truth is that i should have expected it. Not everybody would like a movie with so little dialog and so slow, specially if they were looking for a conventional storytelling movie. But what really surprised me of the comments is how many of these shows that people didn't really understand the movie. This movie isn't just a horror movie and it doesn't pretend to be. It isn't a gore movie either. People should not see this movie waiting to see a lot of violence and blood or "Interview with the vampire"-ish vampires. It ain't that kinda movie. If you know Claire Denis you should have expected a very slow and very silent and quietly movie. If you don't you'll see the movie with wrong expectations and you will obviously dislike it.
