.LacyMB on why Guillermo's humanity is the secret to What We Do in the Shadows' success WWDITS
is at its best when it contrasts the utter weirdness of the vampire world with the boring mundanity of our human one, and nowhere is this contrast more pronounced or interesting than in the character of Guillermo de la Cruz, Nandor’s put-upon human familiar.
Yet, the vampires continually slight and marginalize their familiar, if for no other reason than they can. Or, possibly because they’ve forgotten what it feels like to be human and experience the unique pain of such targeted insults, open slights, and other emotional hurts. But somehow Guillermo never holds their awful behavior against them—at least, not for very long.
Though Guillermo is initially introduced as a lonely and insecure loser, his character is slowly revealed to be sweet, empathetic, and much more openly vulnerable than you’d ever expect someone who regularly kidnaps virgins to slake his vampire master’s literal blood thirst could possibly be.
