Movie Row: "Blood and Chocolate" Soon to Open

"Blood and Chocolate" Soon to Open
Monday, January 15, 2007

Blood and Chocolate will soon open in the US. On January 26th, to be precise. From what I've seen and read so far, it's just another werewolf movie. One nice touch to it is that it was filmed in Romania, in my city, Bucharest.

So, you have Vivian (Agnes Bruckner) a young werewolf who's living in Bucharest and is chosen as the mate for the leader of her pack, Gabriel, interpreted by Olivier Martinez, though she has feelings for a human - Aiden (Hugh Dancy). Her sense of alienation is heightened when a series of unexplained murders point to her as the killer, a threat not only for her, but for her entire pack as well. Personally, this plot has a little Underworld written over it, only this time, we don't have vampires, but werewolves. In fact, the producers are the same ones that brought you Underworld. Who knows, maybe I've underestimated this movie.
