YMMV / The Silver Kiss

Go To

  • Complete Monster: The vampire Christopher is a centuries-old monster who resembles an innocent child. Orchestrating the death of his sire and mentor, Christopher murdered his own mother when she rejected him before turning his brother Simon. Fleeing a vengeful Simon, Christopher leaves a trail of murder and bloodshed behind him, relishing in the fear and agony of his victims. Christopher plays an innocent child to lure people into trusting him before killing them, sometimes torturing them first. Resuming his activities in America, Christopher creates a string of corpses as Simon tracks him. When Simon finally corners him with his love interest Zoe, Christopher decides to murder Zoe before he escapes, just to give his brother more pain.
  • Fridge Logic: Simon's plan. Zoë calls him out on all the bits that are wrong with it, but it has no effect.
    Simon: This is a pit on the opposite side of your bench. I dug it last night.
    Zoë: But surely someone would notice it today?
    Simon: I disguised it.
    Zoë: Simon, what if someone fell in?
    Simon: No one walks around that way.
  • Ho Yay: Sometimes, Zoë and Lorraine are just a little bit too close.
  • Tear Jerker: The Bittersweet Ending where Simon commits Suicide by Sunlight and finally finds inner peace, as Zoë looks on.
  • Woolseyism: Zoë's name is nearly unpronounceable in Spanish as it is (Zoe or Zoey would be better), so she gets called Sofia (meaning "wisdom", which she acquires)
