Synopsis

 

Let Me In, Twilight, Thirst . . . Vampire fares are indeed an international trend. And across the Atlantic, such fares become comical, particularly in the hands of the British director Phil CLAYDON. This bloodsuckers-meet-Shaun of the Dead story features Vicar, recently dumped, and Fletch, just let go, and their weekend trip to the countryside, only where they have arrived is cursed by lesbian vampires. After some great time with beautiful women, the two are attacked by the vampires who, in this film, don"t represent any agenda, be it political or social. Only, they offer an eyeful of really nice bodies, fulfilling a sheer entertainment capacity. Not into serious directorship or heavy artist ego, CLAYDON focuses on honing a "poor" taste, a concoction of raw yet delightful narratives and distant yet cheerful humor ¡ª a B-grade movie you can"t miss, like The Evil Dead and Dead Alive.
