Dance of the Damned: Inferior to its remake
22 August 2018
Dance of the Damned tells the story of a miserable stripper who meets a vampire and returns home with him. He reveals what he is and notifies her that he will kill her just before the sun rises. Prior to that he wants her to describe to him all the things he's missing such as the feel of the sun on your skin.

I came across this as I ended up watching it's remake first called To Sleep With a Vampire (1993) which is considerably better than this.

Amateurishly made from start to finish, the lead male was simply not up to the role and the movie really has little going for it especially compared to it's remake.

The fact an obscure straight to VHS movie would be remade (By the same country) just 4 years later seems crazy to me. At least the remake improved on this lackluster effort.

The Good:

Lead female is passable

The Bad:

The vampire looks awful

Poorly written

Weakly shot

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Showing a vampire where your son lives makes perfect sense

Sometimes remakes do in fact make sense
