Review: 

I gave this film three out of five stars. I liked the plot of the film. The idea of a vampire girl who goes around an awful city preying on those who mistreat women shows that there are protectors out there. I found Shelia to be likable due to the human side of her. Seeing her ride the skateboard on the wall showed that she was still a normal girl and not a vengeful creature who kills people. I was really frustrated when Arash's car was stolen. He was a hard-working young man who didn't deserve to be set back because of his father's bad choices in life. What I did not like about the film was how everything was in black in white. It made it hard for me to focus on what was going on, it felt distracting in a way. I did not like how this claimed to be a horror film, yet it failed to even make me jump out of my seat at any point.  Overall, this was a decent film, and I would watch it again.

I found this review interesting. The author described the film very well and I was engaged by what they said. They gave the film 4/5 stars and spoke very highly of it.
