Awful. Horrible. It jams parts from the first three books into one movie making a wholly incoherent plot which ends, predictively, in disaster. The original story is barely respected, and many important details are either omitted, deleted or modified in some gut wrenching way. The lead actor, who portrays Darren Shan, has an extremely poor performance. If you wish to watch this movie, torrent it. And I encourage that, if you read the books, get them out of your mind while watching the movie, for you will be massively disappointed if you try to find reasonable similarities.
