Inviting comparison to Kathryn Bigelow's 1987 cult hit Near Dark, and derivative of The Hitcher and a half-dozen other films, The Forsaken is nevertheless a gritty little B movie that succeeds on its own modest terms. There's nothing new here, and the film's vampire folklore is only marginally intriguing, but if you're attracted to nihilistic tales that unfold in the middle of nowhere, you'll appreciate this bloody dose of low-budget horror. It all starts when Sean (Kerr Smith) agrees to drive a vintage Mercedes from Los Angeles to Florida, where he'll deliver the car and attend his sister's wedding. His troubles begin when he picks up Nick (Brendan Fehr), a nomadic "hunter" on the trail of a small cadre of vampires (a.k.a. "the Forsaken") who've been spreading their blood-sucking virus since medieval times. Nick's mission: Stop the virus by killing the vampires on sacred ground, using a rescued victim (Izabella Miko) as telepathic bait (telepathy being one of the movie's vampiric innovations).
It's basically a road movie with car chases, nudity, and plenty of grisly violence. It's not as stylish or witty as Near Dark, but after two decades in the B-movie biz, writer-director J.S. Cardone knows what he's doing, and while the movie's never really fresh, it's also never stupid. The young cast plays it straight (which is good), and Jonathan Schaech is a standout as the lead vampire. It's anybody's guess why the vampires manifest themselves as desert-dwelling punks in a rusty Dodge Charger, but hey, sometimes you just gotta go with the (blood) flow. --Jeff Shannon

Ladies and gents youll love this movie, it is just as good as lost boys. It needs an alternate ending though but still worth the price

I totally recommend this to Slash/yaoi fans. Vampires are the virus&curse type. Sean picks up a clever hitchhiker (Nick) that turns out to be a vampire hunter. Nick is looking to kill one of the original vampires to cure himself before he turns.
Its a little cheesy but the two main characters really shine out. That and the type of vampire in the movie was intresting.
I'm a big Sean/Nick shipper. :) The girls really more of a side character with few lines. The boys really ... Read More

Beginning with rather strange Scrapyard receptionist wearing skin tight spandex over her... let's just say 'somewhat wide' hips, and from her plastic neck brace that looks very uncomfortable, to her habit of tying up her hair with between ten to fifteen pencils sticking out of the crazy brown mop atop her head, from the mechanic with a southern accent in the middle of the Sonoran Desert Badlands of Arizona to his greasy smile and vomit inducing teeth, from the black and white old western movie playing ...

The Forsaken (J. S. Cardone, 2001 )
I should probably know better by now. And yet I still subject myself to J. S. Cardone movies.
In this one, Sean, a guy (Dawson's Creek's Kerr Smith) hired to drive a car from Los Angeles to Miami picks up a hitchhiker, Nick (Final Destination's Brendan Fehr) in the middle of the desert. The two of them encounter Megan, a sick girl(Coyote Ugly's Izabella Miko) when they stop for the night in town. Nick insists she come with them, saying he knows what's ... Read More
