At least it wasn't all horror!, 13 August 2006
6/10
Author: Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) from WILMINGTON, NC

Vampire movies are always going to be something, a yawner or a slap on the knees. This movie was a big slap on the knees kind of horror movie, yet, there's plenty of scare factor to go along with it. You got this sleepy town that soon gets a rude awakening when two teen girls encounter a wet tomb where a bloodsucker lies. One of the girls loses her cross swimming, and the cross awakens the vampire. Does crosses keep vampires at bay? For some reason, that one didn't. And the town gets a bite out of everyone, and there's a few people who would fight back: The town drunk, Matty(Garrett Morris), Mark Gardner(Peter DeLuise, "21 Jump St.") and the friend's victim. These friends would prove potent enough to take out the bloodsuckers one by one. Matty maybe loaded, but he's not out of his mind. And Cindy's friend Lucy(Ami Dolenz) wants to get back at the vampire leader. Well the results are good, and then everyone is wondering about having wood stakes in their chests, and the surgeon is like very clueless about what went on last night. And Matty ends up not being the town drunk at all. Too bad the town pervert wasn't spared. He should have never gotten in league of vampires in the first place. This movie was good, and it was fun all the way, I would have to say much about it, that it was different from the others I've seen before. 2.5 out of 5 stars!
