    • Trivia
      Xan Cassavetes was inspired by vampire gothic horror movies from the 70s to do this film.
    • Goofs
      If Paolo is literate enough to be a writer whose advance compensation package includes the free use of a house, he wouldn't give his first impression of Mimi's apparent non-freakishness by saying she "seemed pretty cohesive", instead of "competent" "coherent" "collected" "conventional", or one of many adjectives more accurately denoting stability and sanity.

    Underrated Vampire Film
    In the countryside near to New York, Djuna (Joséphine de La Baume) lives alone with her housemaid Irene (Ching Valdes-Aran) in a manor that belongs to her friend Xenia (Anna Mouglalis). When she meets the screenwriter Paolo (Milo Ventimiglia) at a video rental store, they immediately fall in love with each other. However, Djuna discloses to Paolo that she is a vampire and while making love, she turns him into one. Paolo moves to her house and they happily live together. Out of the blue, her wicked and troublemaker sister Mimi (Roxane Mesquida) appears to stay for a week with them, turning their lives upside-down.

    "Kiss of the Damned" is an underrated and sexy film romance with a good romance with an international cast where the female vampires are French actresses. The plot is well developed and the music score is classy. In 2013, Jim Jarmusch wrote and directed the cult "Only Lovers Left Alive" with a similar storyline. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "O Beijo do Vampiro" ("The Kiss of the Vampire")
