I mean, if being a vampire really bothers him that much, why doesn't he just end it? It wouldn't even be that difficult for him to pull it off in this version, since they aren't portrayed as being quite as invincible as they are in other films.

I suppose he just lacks the willpower or the courage to actually go through with it himself. It’s kind of like how he couldn't find the nerve to take his own life when he was still human; instead, he used to wander into sketchy neighborhoods with questionable people, basically hoping someone would stumble upon him and finish the job. In my view, vampires essentially retain the exact same personality traits they had back when they were mortal.

It’s honestly a bit strange that there isn't a dedicated thread for this movie yet. I caught it on CNN a few days ago, and I have to say, in my opinion, it stands out as one of the absolute best horror films out there—and probably one of the last truly great American vampire movies we'll ever see. The performances by Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, and Kirsten Dunst are just spectacular, the dialogue is incredibly sharp, and the costume design is absolutely stunning. It’s definitely worth your time if you haven't seen it.

"Heaven Is a Place on Earth"... honestly, what a stunning song.
