It's very good, and not nearly as cheesy as the trailer makes it look. The visual aspect is great, the music is great(so much a part of the show that the songs don't take you out of the moment), and the gore level is pretty high.

Yeah, I have three of the songs on my iPod (Pirellis Miricle Elixer, A Little Priest, Epiphany) and they are great...

People had their throats slit. Actually, a lot of people had their throats slit. And the blood just sorta, splurted, and didn't quite look like blood anyway...


^ It made me giggle.

In fact...the blood was quite fake...it looked like red paint


It was good, but it's not something I'll see again.

See, I had meat pies I night or two ago and I always make the point to ask what kind of meat it is made of. xD

some of the songs were kind of rubbish but the worst part for me was the casting of Joanna and that boy who fancied her.

Well they didn't have much screen time. But I disliked them too.

I love the song A Little Priest. It is possibly the greatest song of its kind ever.

Meh, it wasn't very good.

I honestly did not like many of the songs (I ended up fast forwarding through them) and it just seemed very boring to me.

And yes, the blood looked unbelievably fake.
