Whoever Sharon Hinnendael is, she isn’t Alyssa Milano at her prime nor another very famous former child star trying to break into adult roles under advisement from an overbearing momager. So I already regard this remake with a wary eye, knowing there is also a sequel to Embrace of the Vampire that also doesn’t feature Alyssa Milano being naked and therefore no one has watched it ever, including the director of the sequel who shot it entirely with his eyes shut. But Cinetel and Anchor Bay are betting you will want to see the remake, financing it so Filmology Labs Entertainment (started by the guy who founded E! – Alan Mruvka -, so you know it’s going to be good!) and Grobman-Campbell Films can bring us the goods. Despite my obvious jaded nature, maybe, just maybe, they’ll make a good film. But it will probably be awful.
Oddly enough, I found Sharon Hinnendael’s MySpace that show she’s already been in at least one other vampire film, Nightfall, and that looked like a quality number:

I just tried to leave a comment but I didn’t think it went through (my Internet keeps dropping). This is Vanessa over at The Lifetime Movies Wiki again, and we’ve added another link to your reviews. This time, it’s to this stinker, “Embrace of the Vampire” (2013). Your link is under the Movie Info section, if you’d like to check out the page here’s the link:https://lifetimemovies.fandom.com/wiki/Embrace_of_the_Vampire
Thanks again for the great reviews!
