Reception[edit]
While Necropolis: Legion[3][4] is sitting at a 40% on IMDb it has it's dedicated audience. Stuart Monroe from HorrorDNA[5] states that "the performances range from solid (Augie Duke) to exemplary (Ali Chappell and Lynn Lowry), with no real duds in the group." Others praise Director Alexander foy creating a more visually appealing world for Euro horror lovers. "There is a tension I detected in this between Alexander’s love of arthouse and Euro-horror and the need to create a cohesive narrative for a Full Moon Feature schlock-horror." from Taliesin Meets The Vampire[6]
