​Nothing like kicking off 2017 with a dud.  Now, I really wanted to like it.  In my youth, I played role playing games like Vampire the Masquerade and Werewolf the Apocalypse and I really enjoyed the very first instalment in this film franchise, but ugg ... enough already.  The visual effect are on par with TV effects from 2 or 3 years ago, the plot is linear and completely non-original and the set pieces looked like they were purchased from a Game of Thrones garage sale.

​I'll say one last thing about the bad guy, what was he?  They allude that he's special, or something different from being a vampire or a werewolf, but they never close the loop, so it's just another hole in the plot.
