Byzantium (Neil Jordan, 2012)

Neil Jordan goes back to vampires almost 20 years after Interview with the Vampire. The pair of undead this time are a mother and daughter on the English seaside, not allowed to do anything as distasteful as the carnage committed by their male counterparts and having no powers to speak of beyond an uncanny ability to mope. It's basically a fusion of Twilight and Let the Right One In, and adds nothing to an already saturated genre. The characters are neither interesting or scary, and surely at least one of the two was required.
