I just watched it tonight. Co-sign on all the comments here. Good, intelligent contributions by people, so thanks for that.
I had a glass of Merlot while the film was on, the wine became a lot less appealing as i watched the film.
The drinking of the blood was clever, the consuming was done in such a reverential way, it really was what kept them alive. And their expressions were as if they were on a massive high, like a meth hit, lol.
The blood popsicles, how droll. C'mon no-one else mentioned this?
I'm going to guess the action scenes which were cut would have involved Adam's "ninja" skills and very quick movements. But the film is better for not having the action scenes.
It seems Fassbender was originally meant to play Adam but he had to move on as the film struggled to get financing.
I didn't know Jarmusch's band SQÜRL provided some of the music.
Tangiers looks beautiful, got to get myself there in the next few years. Loved the commentary on Detroit too.
