Ratings and reviews

Based on the trailer alone. If you expect people to rent this movie than please, by all means, present a trailer worth watching. IMO This trailer is not meant to attract viewers but rather to run them off wondering why they wasted their time viewing such inept garbage. Do yourself a favor and post a better trailer. No trailer at all is better than this one.

Derek Lee is a badassss super vampire! If you love vampire movies hold on to your seat and crank this one up. You're gonna love it! I only took away one star because of some less than stellar acting. But take my word for it, this one is not supposed to be Shakespeare! Sure hope there is a sequel in the works--Yeah boy!!! Awesome.

Afflicted is a terrifying little film. The problem is it's a bit small, and could have done more, but the story and shocks it give bring a sheer nervousness you should feel watching a horror film, where you feel like the problem is happening to you. And then, when it wraps up, it gives enough of a scary uncomfortable feeling.
