Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person (Vampire humaniste cherche suicidaire consentant in it's French original) is a 2023 French language Canadian (Quebec) fantasy comedy film directed by Ariane Louis-Seize.Meet humanist vampire Sasha. At the ripe age of 68, her parents have decided it's time for her to start hunting humans for blood on her own and not live off their blood supply. Sasha has such moral qualms about killing that she can't even erect her teeth to bite someone. She finds a solution in a suicidal person, Paul. Of course, things will not be that easy for them.As Jessica Kiang of Variety summed it up: "It’s more fairy tale than scary tale". |

Does This Remind You of Anything? |
| | Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person / int_14ed6ab7 |
comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Many scenes play on the humor of Sasha's situation being a more extreme reflection of mundane human issues: The scene were Sasha first takes home Paul and tries to bite him is an obvious parody of a teenager bringing home a boyfriend to have sex for the first time, with her inability to erect her fangs being a gender flipped parody of erectile dysfunction. Denise reaction to them coming is her house is not dissimilar to an older, experienced sibling being pleasantly surprised that their little sister will get laid. The prologue were Sasha's parents are told about her "issues" is clearly a mockery of parents having a young child diagnosed as neurodivergent. The parents different reactions are also typical: her mother wants to have her committed to solve the "problem" while her father is more accepting and tries to shelter her to a fault. Denise being stuck with JP is not dissimilar to someone getting knocked up by mistake and ending up having to take care of the baby. |

Our Vampires Are Different |
| | Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person / int_9f63d4f1 |
comment |
Our Vampires Are Different: The vampires do age, but very slowly. Sasha looks like a high schooler but is sixty eight years old. 300 years is frequently stated as an average life span, with Sasha's aunt being considered old at 341. The vampires starve presumably to death if not feeding on blood and die if they consume human food. They are also implied to be stronger than humans. Sasha says that sun light will kill her and is shown taking care to cover windows. The vampires are also said to have allergic reactions to religious objects, but this is not shown. |
