Reviewers from Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic generally view the film as a flawed but entertaining "B-picture". John Carpenter's Vampires movie review - Roger Ebert
John Carpenter's Vampires (1998) is a gritty that strips away traditional gothic romance in favor of a visceral, "blue-collar" approach to monster hunting . While not consistently ranked among Carpenter's top-tier masterpieces like The Thing , it is often cited as his last strong film of the 1990s and a "guilty pleasure" for fans of practical effects and hard-boiled action.
