"Cirque Du Freak" tells the frightening tale of a boy who unknowingly breaks a 200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and grotesque creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a boring existence and fulfill his destiny in a place drawn from nightmares.
14-year-old Darren (Chris Massoglia) was like most kids in his suburban neighborhood. He hung out with his best friend, got decent grades and usually stayed out of trouble. But when he and his buddy stumble upon a traveling freak show, things begin to change inside Darren. That’s the exact moment when a vampire named Larten Crepsley (John C. Reilly) turns him into something, well, bloodthirsty.
Newly undead, he joins the "Cirque Du Freak," a touring sideshow filled with monstrous creatures from a snakeboy and a wolfman to a bearded lady (Salma Hayek) and a gigantic barker (Ken Watanabe). As Darren flexes his newfound powers in this dark world, he becomes a treasured pawn between the vampires and their deadlier counterparts. And while trying to survive, one boy will struggle to keep their brewing war from devouring what’s left of his humanity.

Bad film, only initial redeeming factor Salma Hayek - but then she grows a beard.. woe is me all of my fantasies are now corrupted.

Twilight sucked so badly, my sister, who loved the books when they came out, realized that they were really just a waste of her time. Cirque Du Freak is awesome! Can't wait.

This is more intense than "Twilight," Dille, and it's awesome! I'm worried about their choice for John C. Reily to play Mr. Crepsley, and I still want to know why the hell they're making Cormac Limbs a WOMAN! He's supposed to be a dude! LOLZ!

I love the books and have all 12. Each book is such an emotion jerker no matter who you are. I'm very much hoping that the movie will be just as good as the books.

I don't see how they're going to keep this movie PG like universal wants. Between that and the fact that they're combining the first three books into this one makes me curious...though they'd better continue through all 12 books of this series. I am in L O V E with the books! Hopefully they won't butcher this one too bad.
