Like a kind of American "Zhao Gu"

Let me talk about the concept of vampires.
I haven't read the novels, nor have I watched the original movies. There are several concepts of vampires in my memory: First, if Abby Abby really loves Owen (including the former Owen) or is ambiguous with him, for various reasons (such as the convenience of taking take-out), you can give Owen an identity (Abby Bite him, mutate and then suck the blood of the master.) ——In the movie, Abby bit the little three in the same house, and the three became a "zombie" without self-consciousness (after waking up, he was excited to admit his wound, it looks like in the movie It's more like a dead bite and then allowed to smoke)
Second, not all vampires are immortal, and Abby's degree should be a type that will gradually grow old. Generally, vampires with less seniority are generally described as less than 200 years old or 200 years old. In his early years, Abby in the movie spans more than 40 years, which translates to an increase of about 5 years. But its appearance rarely changes (human appearance between 12 and 17 has a huge adolescence).

The tone of the film
ranges from relative underdogs (progressive "little girl" titles and Russian-accented gym teachers) to fear-mongering and government control ("Do you know where your children are at 10?" sign), culminating in the "Otherized" minority radical groups. (The trio of brothers and brothers in the film to the final group of four, the relationship of "relatives" with takeaways, the Satanists who are infidels in the mouth of the police, etc.)
The film's rather mixed thematic performance makes the audience feel like a blood pool, Struggling to reach out, wanting a truth and an answer, the door closed inexplicably. Or let you die quickly, and hurriedly drop the comparison of the pros and cons of the remake version, or a superficial look at the aesthetic look and feel of the infinite loop that Uncle Loli loves.
On the other hand, the Blade Warriors and the vampire-themed series that were popular in the past few years. All of them have unit values ​​and self-setting throughout.
The above contradictions (also known as BUG) have determined the embarrassing situation that this film will not, should not, and will definitely be difficult to make a sequel.
