Alexander Skarsgård will always be Vampire Eric. He knows how to get a woman to fall for him with those blue eyes. Let me focus. Love and death is messy. The aftermath of an affair is messy. This film could be a Lifetime and Hallmark Channel mash-up, and I am a sucker for absolutely ridiculous romantic dramas. This is the perfect lazy weekend movie.
From the desk of Dr. Dion Metzger:
“Aftermath” wasn’t meant to go to film. James Kent’s adaptation of the 2014 novel would have been best translated as a soap opera. Everything happened so quickly, “Oh, you’re in love now? And you’re in danger? Who is this guy? Wait a minute”. The romance was as cold as the film’s German winter setting. It had so much potential with the history and the characters but nope.
