Review of Outcast (2014) by J.j. W — 06 Jun 2012
This is "Let the Right One in" mixed with "Dragula" while incorporating the themes of forbidden love and hubris of "Splice". In fact, the ending is pretty much "Splice".
Yet it's more mediocre than all three of the movies it borrows. Outcast starts off fairly strong and sets up the entire sequence fairly well. Yet, the more it tries to develop its story the more it creates plotholes.
I've always found it ironic that government workers and the police are so inept in movies like this but are so unbelievably skilled in CSI. It's a shame the writer opted to basically make everyone but the main characters idiots for the convenience of the plot.
Ultimately, Outcast is a very competent movie but the more the movie progresses the more mediocre it feels.
