barney27-1 I saw this film on the Horror Channel on SkyTV, and thought instantly that it was absolutely terrible. And one of the best I've seen for a while!It doesn't take itself too seriously, and who would? The acting, script, camera-work and continuity are dire, but this film does not pertain to be the next horror masterpiece. I I was so excited when my sister phoned me yesterday to say she'd find some DVD's and had no idea where they came from and read out the titles to me!!! I went straight over and grabbed this film first!I am certainly going to watch it tonight with a can of beer and have a thoroughly good time.
hathor531 OK... so it's a story as old as time... boy gets girl, boy loses girl, girl gets swept off her feet by mysterious stranger who ends up wanting more than just her phone number. And, alright... so the plot line and dialogue could use some work & a couple of the scenes seemed contrived (it's fiction, remember?)...but for a junior college work of art made on an extremely short schedule, nickel & dime budget, and a wing-&-a-prayer we did a damn good job putting this little gem together. I've actually seen worse on the Sci-Fi channel. Go Corsicana! It was a summer project, 17 years ago, and for this movie to even show up on a site like this, is an accomplishment. We had a great time & honestly didn't expect this baby to make it past the city limits (by the way, how did that happen?). We had heat stroke, were wounded in battle, & sometimes hungover (...was that just me?) but we made it through. For those who love 'B' movies, like myself, this is a BIG 'B' with lots of heart... if you're looking for Bram Stoker... try again :)
Pheebshirl This has to be one of the worst films I have ever seen. I purchased this from pound land as part of a double bill with project vampire thinking it looked good, but it was awful. The acting is atrocious, especially from the girl who played the room mate Vicky, and the script sounded like it was written by a fourteen year old. Though the film did have the benefit that it was so bad that it was funny. At the end the bad guy is staked, it is so obvious that the actor is holding the stake in place himself. There is also the unintentionally hilarious scene where Vicky and her boyfriend are attacked. Overall I would not recommend buying this movie you are likely to regret it, but if it is on TV give it a watch just to laugh at how shoddy it is.
webmaster-625 What a great film! OK, so there are problems - the audio track isn't great, the acting is wooden in places, the stunts aren't that impressive, and the continuity and camera work lacks the polish of a big-budget Hollywood film.Nevertheless - a great film! This film has a good pace, it updates the vampire legend and addresses the question of what does an immortal vampire do when he's not biting necks? Tim Cobb is a well-to-do vampire, who comes to a small town from "The Big City". Lisa Watts is the small town girl feeling disregarded by her current love interest, and who is won over by Cobb's sophistication.Depending on your point of view the final twist in the tale is either entirely unexpected, or entirely predictable - make your own judgement.This film is excellent source material for vampire students, although it's unlikely to go down in history as a classic.
