Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant

Movie Title: Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant

Description: Darren Shan's series for young readers takes a bite out of the screen with this adaptation from writer-director Paul Weitz (ABOUT A BOY). When a 14-year-old boy named Darren attends a sideshow, he gets far more than just a few hours of gaping at the strange performers. A vampire (John C. Reilly) makes Darren into one of his own, and soon he joins the tour, traveling along with the bearded lady (Salma Hayek) and the barker (Ken Watanabe), as he's drawn into a war between supernatural creatures.
