It's no Bram Stoker's Dracula, yet few are - The Invitation lands squarely in the almost-forgotten-to-okay vampire cinema ranks.

The Invitation suffers from split personalities as vampire elements disappear for the film's more young adult midsection, long enough where there's never a harmonious fusion of horniness and hangry neck biters. Shades of Radio Silence's shotgun wedding in 2019's masterful Ready or Not and countless sweltry erotic vampire tragedies ring truest, albeit in inspiration, never recreation. While identifiably inferior to the films it's easily compared alongside, The Invitation is creepier, lustier, and more hauntingly atmospheric than trailers detail. Thompson's The Invitation sends, it's not dead-on-arrival. Despite the message Sony's imaginary marketing campaign for Jessica M.
