In a new twist on an old theme, the coolly stylish British miniseries Ultraviolet brings vampires into the 21st century, though the word vampire is never uttered in this mix of The X-Files and somber British TV mysteries like Touching Evil. Jack Davenport is a police detective who stumbles into an elite government agency when his partner and best friend suddenly becomes a nocturnal thug and bites him on the neck. Davenport reluctantly cuts off his old friends and lovers to join the team, which includes Idris Elba as a merciless ex-soldier and Susannah Harker as a medical researcher, and investigate a web of counterfeiting operations, banking scams, and experimental labs featuring human guinea pigs. "What they're researching is pollution: contamination of their blood supply," offers team leader and former priest Philip Quast, but the question remains: are they soulless monsters out to conquer mankind, or a persecuted minority who just want to live in peace with the humans?

Writer-director-creator Joe Ahearne brings all the traditional vampire tropes up to date; not only do they lack reflections in a mirror, but they don't show up on video and their voices don't carry over phone lines or record on audio tapes ("which makes surveillance a bitch"). Sunlight burns like an acid, and when they die they go up like a flare, leaving a pile of ash in their wake. But it's the sharp character writing, moral quandaries, and ingenious twists of this smart, stylish conspiracy thriller that make this series gripping down to the final episode.

The two-disc DVD set features an audio interview with Ahearne along with episode synopses and character notes. --Sean Axmaker

	Customer Reviews: Average Rating: Rating : - A Smart Take on an Age Old War A former friend of mine who is British turned me on to this as soon as it became available in a Region 1 version and I was hooked immediately. From the underlying sexual tension between our mysterious former army soldier (Idris Elba) who still walks the walk and Angela (Susannah Harker), the doctor with the heart as hard as her scalpel, and finding the reasons why everyone plays their part in this smart, updated (though slightly dated, now) techno-battle with the Vampiric race is a fascinating race through the streets and lives of modern-day London. It's all up in the air, too, isn't it? I mean, the Vamps are working on something that would mean peace with Humans forevermore. Would we - could we - allow that? I was desperately disappointed it was only a mini-series and didn't have a follow-up, but it goes out on a powerful enough note as it is to carry it. Just greedy enough to want more from this wonderful cast and some really superior writing with intricate, advanced ideas on an age-old... myth. Worth the investment. Had it in VHS and upgraded to DVD to keep it current. + See Full Customer Review
