Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant
Cirque Du Freak: The
Vampire’s Assistant, based on the popular series of books by Darren
Shan, is a fantasy-adventure about a teenager who unknowingly breaks a
200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled
into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and grotesque
creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a
boring existence and fulfill his destiny in a place drawn from
nightmares. (User reviews below)
16-year-old Darren (Chris Massoglia) was like most kids in his suburban
neighborhood. He hung out with his best friend Steve (Josh Hutcherson),
got decent grades and usually stayed out of trouble. But when he and
his buddy stumble upon a traveling freak show, things begin to change
inside Darren. That’s the exact moment when a vampire named Larten
Crepsley (John C. Reilly) turns him into something, well, bloodthirsty.
Newly undead, he joins the Cirque Du Freak, a touring sideshow filled
with monstrous creatures from a snakeboy and a wolfman to a bearded
lady (Salma Hayek) and a gigantic barker (Ken Watanabe). As Darren
flexes his newfound powers in this dark world, he becomes a treasured
pawn between the vampires and their deadlier counterparts. And while
trying to survive, one boy will struggle to keep their brewing war from
devouring what’s left of his humanity.
In this film clip from the movie, Salma Hayek (Frida, Desperado) sees the vampire's assistant scary future.
