 VAMPIRE
VERMONT- (Brimstone
Productions) Horror. 62 minutes. NR, violence, blood. After getting
lost in the woods near her friend’s house, Maggie is comforted by a
number of friends. As they comfort her, we soon realize that she is still
feeling pretty damned upset over the death of her brother three years
earlier and is also shaken
by a man she ran into while lost in the woods. Well, guess who shows up
and just happened to be the best friend of her brother? Yup, the guy from
the woods. As the night passes, a few of Maggie’s friend’s, namely the
hilarious stoner Swill, mysteriously start to become vampires and begin to
hunt the non-vamps. Trying to save herself, Maggie runs circles around the
house in the hopes of surviving the onslaught of vampires. In the midst of
one such lap, she bumps into a person she never expected to see again who
reveals the truth of her brother’s death.
Although I found the story to be more full of holes
than Ted Kennedy’s Chappaquiddick alibi, this is a fun low budget,
b-movie. The actresses who
portray Maggie and Lana do an ok acting job, but as a whole the acting is
almost laughable. Well, Stoner Swill does ok. He made me chuckle more than
once. Unlike a lot of low budgeters, the lighting and camera shooting is
great! The sound is iffy at times, but better than most flics of this
nature. If you like b-movies, you’ll like this. – Denis Sheehan
