I LOVE What We Do in the Shadows, the 2014 horror-comedy mockumentary starring Taika Waititi, Jemaine Clement, and Jonathan Brugh as three vampires living together in a modern-day Wellington, New Zealand. So naturally, I was very interested to know what Waititi had to say about it during his recent BAFTA talk, so here are some of his best quotes.

An Evening with Beverly Luff Lin: Film Review
I am quite the Aubrey Plaza fan, so I wanted to check out An Evening with Beverly Luff Lin – and I wished I hadn’t. It is soooo not my cup of tea.
The Festival: Film Review
I am a massive fan of The Inbetweeners so I was obviously onboard with The Festival as soon as I heard the makers of the TV show were making a movie starring Joe Thomas, aka Simon from The Inbetweeners. If you liked their previous work, then you will enjoy The Festival.

What We Do In The Shadows: Film Review
I went to see this without any clue about what it is.

I was pleasantly surprised. It was far more oddball and brilliantly funny that I expected.
