synopsis
This obscure British production by veteran Hong Kong director Po Chih Leong stars Jude Law and was released just before Law garnered acclaim for his role in The Talented Mr. Ripley. Law plays Stephen Griscz, a multi-talented mystery man with an intoxicating appeal to women. Though he is dashing and urbane, every woman he woos ends up dead. Griscz's trail of dead female bodies is being investigated by police inspector Healey (Timothy Spall). Anne Levela (Elina Lowensohn) is a strong-willed engineer who seems to be a match for Griscz. But Griscz is actually a vampire who can only be returned to human form when he finds the perfect woman. Anne appears to be that woman.
