"Mockingbird Lane" is a 40-minute television movie from 3 years ago written by Bryan Fuller and directed by Bryan Singer ("The Usual Suspects"). We basically follow a family of monsters who all appear very much human though. This is not a scary movie, nothing for horror fans, but it's 99% comedy. Unfortunately, there weren't that many funny scenes in here, even for such a short movie. And the emotional aspects (father-son relationship) did not work out that nicely either. I am a bit disappointed by this one. And consequently, i am not too disappointed that this did not get picked up for an entire series. Apart from that, how can you take a movie seriously that has the stunning Charity Wakefield in its cast and tries to sell us another cast member as the stunning vamp? Weak watch overall, not recommended.
