An instant comfort film on the first watch while also not actually being very good, but I kind of love it (especially when Krysten Ritter crawls down buildings).
It's like when you give a movie nostalgia bonus points, except somehow this was grandfathered in. The Alicia Silverstone / Amy Heckerling combo is so familiar, like it's a (vampire) sequel to Clueless. Every time Alicia and Krysten are walking and chatting, it takes me to Cher & Dionne.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A witty, affectionate take on vampire mythology that treats immortality as a convenient backdrop for exploring the tensions between eternal friendship and mortal love. It's a charming comedy-romance that prioritizes laughs and heart over scares.
