Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant OFFCIAL movie trailer

OCTOBER 23th, 2009

CIRQUE DU FREAK: THE VAMPIRE'S ASSISTANT, based on the popular series of books by Darren Shan, is a fantasy-adventure about a teenager who unknowingly breaks a 200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and grotesque creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a boring existence and fulfill his destiny in a place drawn from nightmares.
a place drawn from nightmares.
14-year-old Darren (Chris Massoglia) was like most kids in his suburban neighborhood. He hung out with his best friend, got decent grades and usually stayed out of trouble. But when he and his buddy stumble upon a traveling freak show, things begin to change inside Darren. Thats the exact moment when a vampire named Larten Crepsley (John C. Reilly) turns him into something, well, bloodthirsty.
Newly undead, he joins the Cirque Du Freak, a touring sideshow filled with monstrous creatures from a snakeboy and a wolfman to a bearded lady (Salma Hayek) and a gigantic barker (Ken Watanabe). As Darren flexes his newfound powers in this dark world, he becomes a treasured pawn between the vampires and their deadlier counterparts. And while trying to survive, one boy will struggle to keep their brewing war from devouring whats left of his humanity.

The book was awesome, but the movie looks like it'll be made of fail.

[stephicool]

man couldn't the protagonist look more cooler? Oh well

[BethNote]

This looks sort of okay.

I'm just pissed at the Americanitis >.>

[Scamp0909]

I'm fine with the fact that the movies might not be that close to the book...but really, what the Hell have they done to Mr.Crepsly! I mean, John Reilly might be a great actor and all, but by god he's not Mr.Crepsly

[RubyBladeAwesome]

That is NOT how it fucking goes in the book.

I swear to God, "based on the book" is not an excuse to fucking mangle something.

"Wanna become a vampire?"

"Sure thing, strange man I only just met"

"Really? You don't want to think about it at all?"

"Nup."

"Okay!"

Watching this trailer physically hurt.

My childhood has just been raped.

And the new generation of fans who get into this are going to be utterly insufferable.
