It's not very good. Indifferently shot, with a confusing plot and somewhat pedestrian direction - there are around 20 shots of NYC skyline and wide city shots. The only reason to see this is for Nicolas Cage. Who appears as a hollow, executive yuppie who thinks he's turning into a vampire. And he speaks with what I'll refer to as an 'upper-crust British accent' for no reason. It's a terrible and great performance. He abuses an underling in his job at a literary agency, and seems to parody Max Schreck while doing so. There's also no obvious point to the movie - the writing is confused in tone and what the film is about. You can draw conclusions about the well-to-do New Yorker as blood-sucker but ah, no interpretation of this movie will take you very far.
Sure I'm not the only one on the boards who has seen this.
