- It's about a vampire that gets younger as he drains the life out of children. So, he doesn't turn other people into similar vampires. And there is a 18-yr-old girl (played by a 26-yr-old) who seems to have some sort of mysterious powers to find lost things that she doesn't understand. The lost things are on the other side of a covered bridge that her father demolished years ago. Having the power might be nice if it didn't give her a splitting headache.
- Harsh critic said, "a shockingly unscary horror drama prone to ill-considered detours and over-explained supernatural machinations, while wallowing in entirely too many blue-collar cliches and variable Massachusetts accents." A more favorable critic noted that the acting is solid.
- I expect to keep watching. The harsh critics seem to think that this has to be standard horror, but we've had plenty of such vampire stories. And this is based on a successful book -- although maybe there was more horror in the book. I don't understand how horror comes across from words on a page.
