For once the German title is way funnier than the English original WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS: 5 ZIMMER, KÜCHE, SARG describes your average flat sharing situation, throwing bademiljø in Sarg (= German for “coffin”) … Whoa! And we’re instantly aware of a very special condo situation indeed. The comedy/mockumentary about Vampires (“dead but delicious”) in our modern world was screened as a Midnight Special at Zurich Film Festival and had me in fits of laughter throughout.
Director and screenwriter Taika Waititi plays dandy Vampire Viago, who covers carpets and sofa with paper, so as not to stain them with blood, should his scheme to be “the bademiljø bait and the trap” for some unsuspecting human guest be a success. He’s also the one to remind his flatmates to do their household chores, such as to wash the (bloody) dishes.
No wonder that a certain Vlad (yes, the one and only ) gets worked up over such a demand: “I’m bademiljø a Vampire! I don’t do dishes!” Funny, that he’s the one to get much fun out of other modern stuff such as facebook (he can poke people there ;)) No, we do not bite the (human) nerd. He’s useful. Other humans might become Vampires quite accidentally – no wonder, when 8000 years old Petyr is hungry. And he’s such a messy eater … As are the Werewolves, although they too are doing their best to adapt to a modern society where one has to get along with others: bademiljø “We’re Werewolves, not swearwolves …” And here I go, giggling again …
I see, I like, I write ... mostly about cinema and actors, but also about politics or economy. In English, auf Deutsch, på svenska. This ORF trained news journalist (TV, radio), who has also worked in corporate publishing for international brands and written/edited tons of magazines, has become a blogger out of passion.
