thomasjay-52277 Shot in the style of a documentary 'WWDITS' is a brisk and hilarious dive into the Vampire community of Australia. Inventively created on a low budget the characters are distinct and the concept is extremely original this film is overlooked and is a fantastic watch

Chris Schembri This mockumentary about four vampires sharing a house in Wellington, NZ is one of the funniest films I've seen in years. At first I was skeptical. When I read the storyline it sounded dreadful; unoriginal, too similar to "Being Human", so I put off watching it. Then, after a couple of friends recommended it, I thought I'd give it a chance. I'm so glad I did. It was hilarious, and the dialogue and delivery is spot on. It captures the documentary "look" perfectly too. I think "What We Do in the Shadows" is to vampire movies what "Shaun of the Dead" is to zombie flicks. It's brilliant.

cryfenril-38465 Loved it. Anyone who can take not just one trope (vampires, oooo!) but TWO (mockumentaries! So 90s!) and make it fun is a winner in my book. From the awkward, tooth-baring grins of the first introductory shots, to the panicking werewolves trying to find the right tree or the combination for a padlock before the moon is up, this indy gem had me paying attention and chuckling the whole time. Yes, vampires are overdone. So what? This was a vampire movie we really haven't seen before, and that alone makes it special. Add in the quality of the humor and the decent visual effects, and it becomes more than special - it becomes (drum roll, please) A CANDIDATE FOR CULT CLASSIC STATUS. "Bat fight! Bat fight!" actually made me laugh out loud.If you're a fan of comedy, see this movie. If you're a fan of vampires, see this movie. If you're bored and want something unique, see this movie. And on, and on, and on. Just do yourself a favor and see it.

realmuthaf So I reluctantly decided to watch this film, that had oh such good ratings from critics and audiences alike. What did I see?Well, level of production inferior to some of YouTube videos nowadays, for starters. Everything looks dirt-cheap with laughable effects and poor camera work. I read that the budget was 1.6 million dollars, yet it looks 1.59 million dollars cheaper.But it's not just about the looks, right? It's a comedy, after all, it's the writing that matters! Well unfortunately the jokes here are pure sh*t mostly. It's all dirt-cheap puns about how werewolves act like dogs, so they smell and run after sticks. Or how these guys are vampires, so they can't wear silver necklases as it burns, and they bite people. Oh wow, my belly just hurts so much from all the laughter. There's also some unnecessary vulgarity, which doesn't really help anything.The only reasons this was not a 1/10 are that were like 2 moderately amusing gags, and the whole thing lasts less than an hour and a half, so while it is a tedious bore, it's not as long as it could've been. I heard about this movie after its director and writer Taika Waititi (or whatever) was praised for "bringing his charm and wit" to Thor Ragnarok, which I'm yet to watch. Well if Thor Ragnarok has the same level of humor as this than it's likely also borderline unwatchable trash.After the credits one of the characters says something along the lines of "You will forget the contents of this movie". I wish I did, honestly.
