Priest 2011

Priest (2011)    A warrior Priest breaks his vows and promises to save his niece from vampires.  There had been wars between humans and vampires but the vampires were placed on reservations and the people live in heavily fortified walled cities.  The ruling Church denies that they is any trouble between the two groups and the Church becomes more of a menace than the vampires.
    Don't expect anything like the Twilight Saga in this movie.  This is a western-fused post-apocalyptic thriller set in an alternate world based on a series of Korean graphic novels, I had thought Marvel comic books?  I didn't know if I wanted to keep watching this but it did get better.  There are three awesome motorcycles that have a boost to run on nitro, Maggie Q holds her own big time!!  3* (This movie is OK)

87 min, Sci-Fi directed by Scott Stewart with Paul Bettany, Karl Urban, Cam Gigandet, Maggie Q, Lily Collins, Brad Dourif, Stephen Moyer, Christopher Plummer, Alan Dale, Madchen Amick.

Note:  Blockbuster 3*, imdb 5.7 out of 10, 17% critic 38% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
