The film is made over 2 years. original it was meant to be a short film school movie, first they shoot 20 min. and got some money and shoot the rest over some years. It was so funny and to do, i won i price for best special Fx in Denmark when it came out many years ago. A lot of the things is done almost whit out any money in a simple way but i think that a lot of the scenes in the film is working so fine. I have been working on Shaky Gonzales other movies and we are having so much fun on the set doing these films. Shaky Gonzales Direktor on the movies is so good to worked with, he loves to blow things up, shoot outs, breakaway windows to jump through, bullet hits, stunts and so on, i love it to. So i can wait for the next movie to work on whit him

Denmark has many attractions. Not only smörgåsbord or blond beauties or the Lego park. It also has a dark side - vampires! A hundred years ago, or so the story goes, a vampire named Rico Mortis roamed the Copenhagen streets in search for young women's blood. Every hundred years he has to sleep with a woman, make her pregnant and drink his own child's blood in order to survive. Well, Rico Mortis fails, and a young woman resurrects him a hundred years later. That's when the real trouble starts... "Angel of the Night" is a well done Danish vampire movie with lots of blood and gore and action. The action scenes are as drastic as in a Tarantino movie, and the vampire effects are excellent. The only bad thing about the movie was the German dubbing - that was really awful and I could easily have done without it. But if you love vampire movies, you definitely should watch this one. It's worth every minute of your time. Jasper P. Morgan

Rebecca (Maria Karlsen), her boyfriend Mads (Tomas Villum Jensen) and party-girl friend Charlotte (Mette Louise Holland) decide to spend the night in a creepy mansion, former home of Rebecca's occult-obsessed grandmother. They sit around sipping wine and read from a book called "Nattens Engel," meaning we're in for lots and lots of flashbacks."Experienced" vampire Rico Moritz appears young (Christian Grenvall) or old (Erik Holmey), can morph into a (small or giant) bat or rat, can be killed with a special dagger and has been terrorizing the area for over a century. Three main story lines zoom back and forth from 1850 to "a few years ago" back to present day and involve the fates of various people who've crossed Rico's path over the years, including 19th Century witch hunters, a gun-totting group of young vampire hunters and a woman he rapes to sire his offspring. The finale returns to Rebecca and Co. where blood revives Rico (again) and, in a really amazing (and weird!) finale, an angel arrives to take the troubled ghoul to heaven!Although it SHOULD have been subtitled (the dubbing never matches the lips), you can tell it was a major release in Germany. ANGEL has a high budget look, the actors and FX are good, the music score (by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra!) is elegant and the action/horror scenes are well directed. It's entertaining despite the flaws, fluctuations in tone and confusion (this thing even goes to Peru at one point!). Fangoria handled the U.S. video release.

I also saw this at 'Dead By Dawn', and was blown away.Briefly: Woman inherits house, reputedly the last resting place of the dreaded Rico Mortiz- a priest who got bitten and was cursed with vampirism. On her first night there, she and some friends find the skeleton of a huge bat, and a book of her family history. As the tale unfolds, we see in flashback how the curse grew, and how it affects her now.It really couldn't be more entertaining if it tried, and seems to have something for everyone. Okay, it's another vampire movie, and as such, says and shows absolutely nothing new or innovative- but everything is done with such style and charisma that I found myself completely ignoring all that and just hanging on and enjoying the ride. The pacing is breakneck, the script is hilarious- but played mostly, wonderfully, straight- the actors know their jobs and do them well, and the effects are over-the-top and fabulous. All this is overseen by the assured, surprising direction of Shaky Gonzales- a man of whom you will be hearing a lot more from.It looks like it cost four times what it did. It's shiny and gorgeous and you will fall in love with it. Go and find it before all your friends- and gloat later at your leisure.
