Wir sind die Nacht - Report

Here's a quick rundown of the strength feats of the German Vampire movie "Wir sind die Nacht". Aside from its ubergirl content I think the movie is okay, better than I expected, considering it's a German genre movie, entertaining but still nothing mindblowing. If you live in Germany you might want to check it out in the cinema. Overall I'd rate it 6 out of 10.

Now to the ubergirl stuff:

Spoilers ahead

• In the opening scene the lead vampiress (Louise) snaps a stewardess's neck; another of the vampires unlocks the exit door of an airplane and then punches it into the night air.
• Louise sneaks up behind a thug, grabs his neck and breaks it with a short squeeze of her hand (it's indicated only by the sound), then she tosses his body aside.
• When a police squad wants to arrest Lena (also a vampire) she fights back and quickly overpowers the three guys that rush at her by punching or throwing them through the air. The scene is pretty rushed, i.e. you don't see that much. Still not bad.
• In a train Louise appears behind a (human) cop and grabs his throat; she seems to be lifting him but it's not really clear. Lena then pushes the cop aside frees him from Louise's grasp.
• During the final scene Lena attacks Louise: They run up the walls, Lena rips some metal bars off the wall and attacks Louise with them; she is thrown through the air several times by the older vampiress, who also catches her fist and breaks her arm etc. Again the scene is filmed in that fast moving music video style which is too bad because you don't get a clear look at what's going on. Also, it should have been a bit longer in my opinion.

The vampiresses also have healing powers which are shown repeatedly throughout the movie - for example when Lena forces the cop to shoot her and then shows him how her wound heals. And they can run up walls, even walk upside down on the ceiling; it's never explained how or why.

At the moment I can't provide screencaps or even video clips. I might add them as soon as a release finds it's way into the net.
