Blood for Irina is a 2012 vampire film written and directed by Fangoria editor and film critic Chris Alexander, who also helped to create the film's score. The film was released on November 2, 2012 in Belgium and follows a dying vampire and her relationships with two other damaged individuals.

Synopsis

Irina (Shauna Henry) is a century old vampire that is reaching the end of her existence. She's barely capable of perceiving the world around her properly, as her memory, body, and senses are all rapidly decaying and tormenting her. She's watched over by the motel manager (David Goodfellow), who is obsessed with the need to keep Irina safe. Also close by is a wretched prostitute (Carrie Gemmell) who might be in a worse situation than Irina is in herself.

Cast

  • Shauna Henry as Irina

  • David Goodfellow as Man

  • Jason Tannis as Monster

Reception

Critical reception has been mixed, with many of the reviewers commenting that the film would not appeal to all audiences. HorrorNews.net gave a mixed review for Blood for Irina, calling it an "immersive experience" while also criticizing the director's choice to have minimal dialogue, as it "really makes hard to follow after a while". In contrast, Diabolique Magazine gave a more favorable review for the movie, saying that it "may not appeal to every type of horror fan, but those versed in artsy European vampire films, or those at least curious, should find plenty to appreciate here."
