Review
The movie Blood Sky has generally received average reviews. Some people found it silly, while others have fallen in love with it.
“An air hostage film mixed with a vampire sounds like a B movie, but it’s far from it,” said one reviewer on IMDB. “This is proper suspense and action and the mix of German and English language just adds to the suspense.”
“The storyline was rather unique compared to other movies of this genre that we’ve seen from Hollywood,” he said. “I felt the mom and her son had depth in terms of their characters and that their chemistry was solid.”
While others have said that they teared up at how this movie ended. It’s certainly not a film to leave viewers indifferent.
