i love this movie! matt reeves is a genius! i am not into vampire movies, but somehow this one is in a league by itself. the actors who played owen and abby are fantastic to say the least. i should also mention that the music score was superb. kind of haunting yet sweet. i also got an alfred hitch.(the master of suspense) feeling watching this film. needless to say i can't wait for this film to come out on dvd. oh, by the way did i mentioned i have seen this film at least six times since it opened
