Reviews for The Forsaken
A rare horror film in which the heroes are better drawn than the monsters, this trips up because Schaech doesn't cut it as a master fiend and the car chases distract from the dread.

Top CriticStripped to its essentials, this could have been an intriguing vampire movie.
09/17/01
Top CriticThe Forsaken is positively anaemic.
09/10/01
Top CriticThe writer/director then squanders his wayward energies on repetitive, ham-fisted action and boring violence.

Unoriginal but not terrible.

Se puede ver solamente si se es fanático del género o si se asiste al cine con ganas de dejar las neuronas en la entrada por un par de horas.

This slight but not altogether uninteresting monster opera can be a hoot.

Top CriticThe Forsaken tries too hard to be the sexiest new entrant in the vampire movie genre. And it fails.
05/07/01
Puked-up blood, inexplicable explosions and naked breasts are pretty much all The Forsaken has to offer.

It's not a scary movie, it's a vampire movie. And in reality, it's kind of a bad vampire movie.
07/01/06
As a horror film, it's not scary nor suspenseful; and as an action picture, it's not terribly exciting, if at all.
12/08/02
Not enough to convince the target audience of easy-to-please teenybopper mallrats that this isn't a tired piece of work.
05/05/01
A fitting title, it seems that almost everything in this film is either forsaken or just plain neglected, including plot, characters and logic.
05/02/01
Reeks like the day old apple you left lying in you back seat after a long hot miserable driving day.
04/18/01
Startlingly amateurish.
05/02/01
The vampires are ignoble and exist beyond the constraints of physics, the guns are large.
05/08/01
Has no style, humor or scary parts.
