In the age of a glitz and glam and ‘bigger is better’ attitudes it’s rare for lower budget films to make you sit up and take notice. Despite the challenge a new release from New Zealand directors Taika Waititi (Eagle vs Shark, Boy) and Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords) has done just that.
It's certainly been a heck of a decade for Taika Waititi. Whether it was crushing fashion with his pineapple-infused fits, creating indie and cult favourites, or making his mark on the world of blockbusters, it seemed like Taika could do no wrong in the 2010s.
And with the release of Jojo Rabbit, it's a great time to ask the question: Just what makes Waitit's brand of cinema so captivating?
Vianne Venter caught up with Taika and his vampire cast to talk What We Do In The Shadows.
What We Do in the Shadows the TV series is based on the feature film of the same name and looks to expand on everything we loved.
