Born as the survivor of a bitten-pregnancy, a part-vampire “day walker” continues his crusade amidst one of their ranks’ power play for leadership.
A classic movie, before the whole superhero genre got entirely out of hand. It’s an unfortunate rewriting of the original comic book, but it does well with what it has. It’s blunt and stiff, yet entertaining.
It has only a couple of moments of technology which feel old, otherwise it has held up well.

A boy-genius is brought into an elite university to work on a laser project with a genius-misfit, but after its spectacular success they learn of its nefarious purpose.
While old, it holds up perfectly. A great movie, with a bunch of laugh-out-loud moments. Unlike the “frat boy” movies which are all about booze and boobs, this one shows genius with its hacker spirit.

Humans have been rapidly evolving and spontaneously generating new organize.
A third of the way in there is no particular plot, and this is intolerably weird.
