Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Adapted from the first three books in a series of 12, The Vampire's Assistant is stuffed with ancient prophecies, opposing supernatural factions and a big top full of unused characters, but all that actually happens is that a boy (Chris Massoglia) joins a travelling circus and becomes the protégé of a 200-year-old vampire (John C Reilly).
His adventures haven't started, so watching the film is a bit like listening to the rules of football and then being sent back to the changing-room before kick-off.
