    Looks like something outta the weird-ass anime G-Gundam. I never saw that series, I unfortunately just know what it is.

    Based on the robot dude's codpiece, it seems like the robot's designer is seriously over compensating for something.

    AAh. Undifferentiated and dull colour palette, muddled layout, doodads all over that make every part of the body indistinguishable from every other part.

    This is Michael Bay's wet dream.

    I thought Bayhem's wet dream was a 90 minute montage of explosions, guys looking grim and boob shots?

    @Grey_Area: I keed. Those fiery throwing stars look pretty boss. Do they float around his feet like Nezha?
    Also, I never get tired of Hopping Robovampires.

    The Escargot Man scenes completely ruin the HOLY FUCK WHAT IS THIS feeling the original teaser for Symbol had.

    Looks like a character design from a new Darkstalkers game. Hopping vampires are hilarious.


    I've had to dress up as a variation of one on occasion...

    Wait, so do the filmmakers expect chinese people to be able to read the tagline in english? Or is it just supposed to be like when we have random chinese characters we can't read because they look cool?

    @ThisDudeRufus: It's using a bit of that slightly awkward English that seems way too textbook formal to me.


    But to answer your question, yes.

    Does that hopping vampire have rocket launches in its sleeves? I don't remember any of the vampires in the hundreds of Chinese vampire movies I've seen having THAT! HEY!

    @Grey_Area: R.O.A.C.H.: A little bit of irony, a vampire using a flamethrower, regardless of its biological composition. Might as well have it fling crosses while munching on a garlic breadstick while its at it. Which reminds me... hungry.
