With it's beautiful cinematography, steady pace, and understated acting, Byzantium is solid modern Gothic vampire tale. A bit reminiscent of Interview with the Vampire and The Moth Diaries, we see mother and daughter vampire in current day and through flashbacks and storytelling are told of how they came to be and the loneliness of their existence.
Byzantium is a slow burn and never takes any drastic chances. It forgoes the cheese of many vampire films and remains melancholy throughout. This certainly won't be for everyone, yet there is definitely something worthy here.
