VAMPIRES: OUT FOR BLOOD (a review)



A horror movie with Kevin Dillon (Entourage), Lance Hendricksen (Aliens), Vanessa Angel (Weird Science) and Jodi Lyn O'Keefe? It must be good right? Or horrible since no one has heard of it. You always got to wonder when name actors are in horror movies you've never heard of...

The story: a cop who can't get over his ex- and has a drinking problem encounters a weird vampire orgy where he is bitten and begins to turn into a vampire. Except no one belives him. They think he's crazy because there's no evidence and he's talking like a crazy person. But his ex-, who writes books about vampires, believes him and together they try to kill the head vampire, except the ex- doesn't really want to kill the head vampire, she wants to become a vampire herself and so things go bad and then the cops come and they still think he's crazy and his ex- comes back when he's in the mental ward but no one else can see her so he kills her but there's still no evidence and he still seems crazy and then she isn't dead.

Was it good?

No. I mean, seriously, did you read what I just wrote? The amazing thing is that this was good enough to get a bunch of name actors involved. Of course, it could be that the actors needed a job and this was paying. Yikes. Bad script, bad f/x, bad directing, bad camera work, bad edits... If this had been a no budget outsider movie it would have been bad. To have had pros on set and turn out this, yikes!
