An old man is surprised to learn has has 19 year old daughter, who becomes embroiled in a web of vengeance and violence set against him.

I really like this movie. It might play out as too flat for most people, but for me the character was well-crafted and acted.

Like few movies, He Never Died explores age and power at its extreme. Fans of Interview with the Vampire - (1994 movie), for example, should appreciate such elements.

A man regrets the wedge between himself and his son, and tries to apologize. Or something.

It's definitely on-par with the first, and worth the watch if you like the other.

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 cripple does science that goes bad.

This movie is a special kind of bad all it's own. There are movies which are bad, you know it and you can point it out. For those movies you can pick them apart and agree on things or argue over what you imagine might have been done better. Morbius, on the other hand, is bad in a way you can't put your finger on. There are pictures and they move, but the writing, acting and sound are void of substance. The audio in particular is insubstantial.

A kickass preacher is infected with a power, and for some reason there's a vampire.

Maybe it has potential, but it's scatterbrained and kept sliding into slow moody boringness.

A day-walking vampire halts his crusade against them, forming a truce to hunt an even worse monster.

An adequate movie, with an acceptable amount of over-the-top nonsense. Definitely worth watching for fans of the original. Easily stands the test of time.
