Blood Red Sky (aka Transatlantic 473) is a 2021 British-German Action Horror film directed by David Thorwald, written by Thorwald and Stefan Holtz, and starring Peri Baumeister, Roland Møller, Graham McTavish, and Dominic Purcell. It premiered on Netflix on July 23, 2021.Nadja and her son Elias are aboard a transatlantic overnight flight from Germany to New York. Nadja suffers from an illness that prevents her body from producing blood, forcing her to take regular medication, and is traveling to America to see a doctor who can treat her condition. Unfortunately, Nadja's flight is hijacked by a group of terrorists, and she gets shot while trying to protect her son. This, however, does not kill her... as it turns out that her "illness" is actually vampirism. Fully transformed into a vampire, Nadja now stalks the plane in order to take it back from the terrorists and save Elias.The trailer can be viewed here. | |

Pull the Thread: Nadja is waiting for the terrorists to parachute off the plane, when Eightball discovers the serum container she dropped, and, realising the death of their colleague was not from the escaped dog, follows the Trail of Blood to where he left Nadja's body only to find she's Not Quite Dead. | |

Fall Guy | |
Blood Red Sky / int_10cdfe4b | comment |
Fall Guy: Farid and Mohammed, both of whom are innocent Muslim men, are forced to read statements in Arabic that will make them seem to be Middle Eastern Terrorists, setting them up to take the fall for the plane's hijacking. They both have flight training and were lured onto the flight to attend a fake conference set up by the hijackers. There's also a white German Muslim convert who is a former associate of Egyptian radicals; his name is on a suspected terrorist watchlist, even though he insists that he no longer has anything to do with them. After Nadja kills the first hijacker, she releases a dog from its kennel so the others will think it ripped the man's throat out. One of his accomplices shoots the dog accordingly. | |

Vegetarian Vampire | |
Blood Red Sky / int_143c304b | comment |
Vegetarian Vampire: Nadja initially tries to function as such by only drinking the bare minimum amount of blood (presumably blood derived from raw animal meat, which she is seen sipping in a flashback) that she needs in order to just stay alive, though she looks weakly and malnourished. But after getting shot by Eightball, she kills and feeds on a helpless small dog to recover from her injuries, then moves on to hunting humans (though she tries her best to only eat the terrorist hijackers). As she continues consuming more blood, doing this ensures that her vampiric transformation accelerates until she is no longer mentally human, even eagerly running after her own son to hunt him in the ending. | |

Transhuman Treachery: When the Scottish investor is badly injured and the doctor on board tells him she can't perform the necessary surgery until they land, meaning he may die, he decides to try an Emergency Transformation and open the cargo bay doors and ask the newly vampirized Eightball to bite and turn him. Eightball just takes one look at him, slashes him to finish him off, and leaves him to be eaten by the vampires he turns later. | |

Poor Communication Kills: When the plane lands, Farid tries to tell the authorities what happened, but they mistake him for a hijacker and refuse to rescue him, thinking he is going to detonate the bomb if they try. The authorities have to rely on a traumatized Elias to tell them what happened on the plane, and they don't believe him until it's too late, which gets the search and rescue team killed. | |

The Virus | |
Blood Red Sky / int_1c7555f1 | comment |
The Virus: Rather than an explicitly supernatural curse, vampirism is depicted as some sort of contagious disease that turns people into ferociously bloodthirsty mutant monsters, transmitted through bite wounds or exchange of body fluids. After Eightball intentionally injects himself with Nadja's infected blood to become a vampire, he immediately starts attacking and biting anyone around him, and soon multiple infected people are filling up the plane. | |

Looks Like Orlok | |
Blood Red Sky / int_1d5786ff | comment |
Looks Like Orlok: Becoming a vampire will either immediately or eventually make you look hideously and inhumanly monstrous. At the beginning of the film, Nadja (who had been taking medication for several years to stall her transformation) has already lost all her hair (she wears a wig to hide her baldness), and some sharp fangs have grown out of her gums (which she hides behind a set of false teeth). After losing her medicine and drinking blood from a dog, her transformation starts accelerating; such as gaining Pointy Ears, ghoulish eyes, an upturned nose, many more sharp fangs, and Femme Fatalons. Other people who get turned into vampires also have most of these features like pointy ears, creepy eyes, fangs and claws, though they don't lose their hair yet. | |

Aside from being a sadistically violent psychopath who eagerly takes up any opportunity to murder or terrorize innocent people for fun, there's also his response after seeing Nadja revealing herself as a vampire by ripping out Berg's throat: he grabs a syringe and steals her infected blood so that he can make himself become another strong, fearsome monster just like her. | |

Chekhov's News: When Nadja is first introduced in her hotel room, a financial news segment playing on the TV in the background is discussing problems with oversaturation of the stock market, specifically in relation to airline shares. Later on in the film, the Scottish stockbroker theorises the terrorists intend to take advantage of this by blowing up the plane and shorting the stock market to make a fortune. | |

Technically-Living Vampire: It's subtly implied that the vampires in this movie may all be living, breathing creatures with a pulse, instead of being undead reanimated corpses. It also seems that only people who survive being bitten by a vampire (like Nadja was) will turn into vampires; as Nadja's husband Nikolai was killed and drained of blood, but he never rose up as a vampire himself. | |

Everyone on the plane except Elias and Farid have either been killed or turned into vampires, and Nadja loses her humanity to the point that she no longer recognizes Elias, who is forced to kill her by blowing up the plane. On the positive side, there is no indication that any vampires survived, so the infection will not spread any further, and Colonel Drummond is finally convinced of Farid's innocence. Farid also keeps his promise to Nadja to take care of Elias after her death. | |

Jerk With A Heart Of Jerk: Berg, the leader of the terrorists, orders Eightball to bring him a hostage to kill if he's not allowed into the cockpit. Eightball brings him a little girl. Berg's first reaction appears to be shock. Then he simply takes the girl and prepares to shoot her anyway. | |

I Just Want to Be Normal | |
Blood Red Sky / int_4852f325 | comment |
I Just Want to Be Normal: The whole reason Nadja is flying to New York is to seek a cure for her vampirism. Igor, the elderly vampire who attacks Nadja when she returns to the farmhouse where she was turned. It is implied both him and his son (whom Nadja killed) were also involuntarily infected, and have been trying to synthesise a cure/suppressant in a makeshift laboratory in their basement. He tries to murder her not out of revenge for his son, but because he's given up hope of finding a cure and thinks they must die to prevent others from being 'cursed'. | |

Terrorists Without a Cause: The hijackers' exact political goals or motives are never outright revealed, and they behave more like apolitical criminal mercenaries hired for a job (they even discuss how their pay will be split after one of them is killed), instead of being ideologically-motivated militants who believe in any particular cause. | |

A rare heroic example. Nadja kills Bastian, the hijacking crew's pilot and their last surviving member, once he tells her that it's possible for Farid to make an emergency landing even with only one hand. Once she and Farid hear that, she realizes that he's no longer needed to land the plane, but his blood will help Nadja recover her strength, and his corpse will also make for good bait for the other vampires, so there's no more reason to keep up the Enemy Mine. | |

Asshole Victim: Bill Morris, the arrogant and self-serving Scottish stockbroker. He tries to steal an oxygen mask off an old German lady, only to get severe internal injuries when a food trolley careens down the aisle into him as the plane dives to a lower altitude. In a desperate attempt to save his own life, he releases the vampires from the hold in the hope they will turn him, only to be killed by Eightball instead. When Nadja needs a lot of fresh blood to fight her way through the vampires to save her son, she kills Bastian (the pilot who was in league with the terrorists), after verifying Farid can land the plane by himself. | |

Continuous Decompression: Averted. When a window is broken by a stray gunshot, the plane depressurizes near-instantly and Eightball is pulled towards it, but the sucking quickly stops and with all the air gone, everyone is able to move normally to scramble for oxygen masks. Later when the cargo bay door is blown off, they are already flying low because of the earlier decompression, so it has little effect. | |

Farid and Mohammed, both of whom are innocent Muslim men, are forced to read statements in Arabic that will make them seem to be Middle Eastern Terrorists, setting them up to take the fall for the plane's hijacking. They both have flight training and were lured onto the flight to attend a fake conference set up by the hijackers. There's also a white German Muslim convert who is a former associate of Egyptian radicals; his name is on a suspected terrorist watchlist, even though he insists that he no longer has anything to do with them. | |

Friendly Neighborhood Vampire | |
Blood Red Sky / int_982b6570 | comment |
Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: Nadja is just a widowed single mom and a peaceful law-abiding citizen who really doesn't want to become a vampire, regularly taking medication to suppress the bloodthirst and halt the transformation for as long as possible. Even after circumstances during the airplane hijacking force her to transform further into a bloodthirsty mutant vampire, all she wants to do is fight against the terrorist hijackers in order to protect her son, and she also wants to help the other innocent passengers and crew members taken hostage. However, her frightening new appearance and behavior as a vampire unsurprisingly scares everyone around her. | |

Foreshadowing: When Elias gets off the plane in the beginning, he's clutching a teddy bear for dear life and refuses to let go of it. But when the movie jumps back to Elias getting on the plane, he has no teddy bear. Because it's not his at all. He grabbed it out of the cargo hold and hid the detonator in it. | |

White Shirt of Death: Eightball stabs a sky marshal to death, then proudly displays his bloodsplattered white steward's shirt to the passengers to intimidate them. When he gets too close to Nadja, she has to restrain herself from vamping out in response to the smell of blood. When Eightball shoots her, she's wearing a white jumper to make the bloodstains clear to the audience before she comes back to life. | |

Our Vampires Are Different | |
Blood Red Sky / int_9f63d4f1 | comment |
Our Vampires Are Different: They are Feral Vampires who look like Orlok. They don't look or act very human, and are more like wild predatory animals that are always hungry for blood. They are somewhat faster and stronger than normal people; and while they're far from being Nigh-Invulnerable, they have a Healing Factor that allows them to survive gunshot wounds, especially after drinking enough blood to regenerate from their injuries. Vampirism also seems to be portrayed less supernaturally and more scientifically as The Virus, with Nadja regularly taking medication to suppress it, vampires "burning up" in the sun portrayed as severe photosensitivity to UV light resulting in sunburns, their reflections appearing in mirrors just fine (which allows Nadja to see how inhuman her infection has made her look), and the infection is transmitted through biting. It's not known for certain whether the vampires in this film are undead, as they seem to be more alive. It's also never discussed if vampires are immortal or at least live longer than normal humans; and aside from the aforementioned Super-Strength and Healing Factor, they do not really display any other noticeable superhuman or supernatural abilities. | |

All for Nothing: Nadja's efforts to travel to America and cure her vampirism are ultimately fruitless, as not only does the hijacked plane end up landing in Scotland instead, but the movie ends with her being fully transformed into a mindless Feral Vampire who cannot recognize her own son as anything except food, thus forcing Elias to kill her. | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Eightball has Nadja at his mercy, but is fascinated by her vampirism and gets a sample of her blood before going to stake her. This gives Elias time to intervene. Berg tells Carl to shoot Eightball if he steps out of line again, causing Carl to mutter that they should do that right away. He regrets not doing so. | |

Hope Spot: In the final scene, Elias approaches the plane just as the vampires are leaving it, led by a now-fully savage Nadja. She stops for a few seconds when she sees him, and appears to recognize her son. Those few seconds end with her screeching in delight and leading the charge of the vampires towards the kid and the smorgasbord of humans in the terminal. Now completely sure that Nadja's gone, Elias unhesitatingly blows up the plane and incinerates all of the vampires. | |

Wooden Stake: Eightball sharpens the handle of a wooden hockey stick into a spear to use against Nadja. It's shown that a knife to the heart works just as well, as when Nadja uses one to put down Berg as he turns, but Eightball had likely seen too many vampire movies. Or a knife works as long as you kill the person before they fully turn. | |

Heroic Willpower | |
Blood Red Sky / int_c696f3ba | comment |
Heroic Willpower: Most vampires devolve into bloodthirsty, barely cognizant monsters not long after turning. Nadja, out of love for her son (and presumably with the help of medication she had been taking for years), retains most of her sanity and is able to fight off her urges for as long as possible, though they do eventually get the better of her. It's more like Villainous Willpower, but Eightball is the only other vampire aside from Nadja who seems to retain any human intelligence or personality after being turned, though he stops speaking like a human and acts even more Ax-Crazy as a vampire. | |

Beauty to Beast: Nadja was a fairly attractive woman when she was human. By the start of the film, her infection has already caused her hair to fall out. Her vampiric transformation speeds up considerably after she gets shot, and by the middle of the film, the other passengers are reacting to her more hideously monstrous appearance with horror. After her transformation into a vampire is complete at the end, she looks and acts totally unrecognizable from her human self. | |

Tragic Monster: Nadja is a widowed single mother who was infected with vampirism after being bitten by another vampire that also killed her husband, forcing her to raise their son alone while trying to suppress the symptoms and transformation through medication. Her initial goal in the beginning is to fly to New York in hopes of being cured by a doctor there. Not only does she ultimately fail, but she also ends up getting killed after she had finished turning into a fully Feral Vampire, losing all of her human emotions and memories too. | |

Vampire Procreation Limit: Nadja tries to enforce this when, after biting Berg, she stabs him in the heart as he starts to turn, and when she tries to set Eightball on fire. Unfortunately, the plane's fire suppressant systems kick in before Eightball dies, and he infects the rest of the hijackers save for Bastian, who managed to escape. A flashback shows the father of the vampire who infected Nadja trying to shoot her and burn the body because he's become convinced there is no cure, so the only course is Murder-Suicide to prevent their 'evil' from spreading. | |

Weakened by the Light: Vampires are extremely photosensitive to ultraviolet radiation, need to wear Sunglasses at Night, and suffer severe sunburns from even brief exposure to direct sunlight. The terrorists also figure out that a UV flashlight will painfully stun Nadja. In the climax, Farid exploits this by turning the plane perpendicular to the morning sun so that it shines in through a breached door, frying Eightball and sending him falling into the ocean. | |
