Chris Massoglia stars as Darren, a 14-year-old boy who unintentionally disrupts a 200-year ceasefire between two rival vampire gangs. Darren is then drawn into a world of sideshow freaks and creatures of the night, disappearing from his ordinary life into a place of nightmares where he must face his fate - a fate which leads him to a vampire named Larten Crepsley (John C. Reilly) who turns him into a half-human, half-vampire. He joins the bearded lady (Salma Hayek) and larger-than-life barker (Ken Watanabe) in the touring sideshow 'Cirque du Freak' while he moulds his newfound powers. However, it is not long before the vampires and their deadlier adversaries begin to use him as a pawn as their impending war lurks ever closer. Darren must fight to keep what is left of his humanity before it is taken away forever.\n\n\nFrom Amazon.co.uk\n\n\nAdapted from Darren O'Shaughnessy's book series the Saga of Darren Shan,\nCirque du Freak: A Vampire's Assistant is an endearingly goofy teen-vampire tale reminiscent of\nThe Goonies or\nLost Boys. Like those kids' horror classics,\nCirque du Freak is a coming-of-age tale in which maturity is hastened by horrific discoveries of alternate realms. Best friends Darren Shan (Chris Massoglia) and Steve (Josh Hutcherson) embark on a life-changing career path as monster prodigies after attending a taboo freak show starring various mutants and Madame Octa, a fluffy, neon orange, Muppetlike spider that Darren is irrevocably compelled to kidnap. Darren's petty theft results in the boys' introductions into the dualistic realm of good vampires, including the paternal Larten Crepsley (John C. Reilly), and less-generous bloodsuckers such as Murlaugh (Ray Stevenson) and his Vampaneze family. Part of the fun is in learning how vampires are defined in this world; for example, they can't turn into bats but they have magic spit. The film's additional appeal is in its clever teen-vampire cultural nods, such as when Darren plays his Gameboy inside his coffin. The actual circus, too, offers a wide array of fun, spooky characters, such as ringleader Mr. Tall (Ken Watanabe) and Darren's scaly buddy Snakeboy (Patrick Fugit).\nCirque du Freak: A Vampire's Assistant has tough moments, too, once the boys realize they can't look back. These moments transform\nCirque du Freak: A Vampire's Assistant into a film parents may even be charmed by. --\nTrinie Dalton\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"replacement-content\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"replacement-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eAnother high quality item sold by Attic Discovery Shop.
