Perfect Creature was one of those films that I had high hopes for. Unfortunately, I was let down, and left very disappointed in what I saw. The film had the potential something terrific, but instead it's a total mess of a film. The concept of the film, I have say was very good, u... read more

I really thought I would like this. It has a good idea for a story with a vampire race living along side humans in an alternate world. That was one of the let downs as the alternate world is like a mish mash of Victorian times mixed with 60's technology, steam powered cars? Why t... read more

It reminded me of Underworld, though the two plots are very different, mainly because the world they create is perhaps the most interesting thing about the film for me. Otherwise, despite the few touching moments I couldn't find any real interest in the plot, or the characters. T... read more

A very creative spin on vampire lore.
This film created a very stylized and intriguing mythology and was visually intriguing and at times stunning.
Has the feel of a graphic novel. Would love to see more of these characters and the story in general. -

Absolutely brilliant. A unique, sophisticated, original and superb vision. The most outstanding genre-bending film in years, combining horror, science fiction, action and mystery. An incrediable movie. A masterpiece. It's remarkable, thrilling and exhilerating. Gripping, riveting... read more

Interesting and original take on vampires. It's a lttle slow and Leo Gregory is a bit too hammy but overall an entertaining experience.

The movie attempts to take a new approach on vampire movies and starts out with a few nice ideas and an interesting early 20th century alternate world. Where it goes from there is a lot less interesting, with stereotype characters which make it hard to care for and rather bad dia... read more

A pleasant surprise! A fun new take on vampires that has a little Gattica in it, some Dark City, some 28 Days Later, and even a religious thriller. Well acted by all, especially Leo Gregory.

Vampire movie about humans and vampire's co-existing peacefully. Things seem fine aside from the occasional sign of caution, but when a flu epidemic breaks out over the humans and a rogue vampire starts feeding on them, the balance looks set to be destroyed so it's up to a team o... read more

Cheesey production quality but an interesting and fresh take on vampires. If you like vampire movies you should check this one out for a really interesting take on the mythology.
Critic Reviews
Perfect Creature is a really pretty movie with excellent locations, sets, and cinematography, but it is so mind-numbingly dull only the most thirsty vampire fanatics will want to see how it all winds up. Full Review
Hits the wall with a thud, coming up well short of its potential and only appealing to vampire movie aficionados looking for something slightly different. Full Review
