Perfect Creature makes you glad you’re not a lot of people – anyone involved with Perfect Creature, for a start. But in particular, it makes you glad you’re not Dougray Scott.

Full reviewThere's so much intriguing thinking behind locally-made internationally-cast vampire flick Perfect Creature - which is matched by a bold sense of style on screen - it's hard not to enjoy the flawed result just for its grand ambitions...
Full reviewFrom New Zealand director Glenn Standring, this is not what you might expect from a vampire flick, and for my tastes all the better for it...
Full reviewPerfect Creature is a film that badly needs a transfusion of some of the goof and momentum of a Blade or Underworld, but instead winds up playing like the vaguely pretentious and sulky kid brother to those franchises...
Full reviewAlthough it's nice to have a change of pace from the usual hyper-kinetic vampire stories that have dominated the last decade, Standring's characters really don't stand up to the extra scrutiny devoted to them. Scott's (Mission Impossible 2) Silas is expressionless and hence virtually characterless, like Nicolas Cage in City of Angels but with less mope, while Burrows' (Troy) cliched, troubled cop simply disappears, as if her altercation with a Dunedin tree kept her off the set for a considerable period of time...
