AR-0054: For my first birthday on Rumble, I have decided to just review the next item on my schedule and that just so happens to be this ultra-low-budget pre-DTV-Golden-Age [DTV is my acronym for "direct-to-video" so please remember that] B-grade vampire actioner [possibly the very first for the 1990s, before "Blade" and even before that "Night Hunter" flick where Don "The Dragon" Wilson hunts down vampires] about a trio of medical research interns out to stop a vampire version of Klaus Schwab and his own vaccine that turns people into vampire slaves. If you think my take of that plot sounds silly, well just watch the film if you can find it and you'll notice the similarities too...

...You know, the real Schwab could be a vampire or some sort of demonic entity...

Anyhoo, the majority of this film is shot on the streets at night and with the cramped action scenes the film suffers greatly. While it is by no means a good film, it does have an interesting storyline and it would honestly make for a decent film if given a more polished presentation one day.

You can find this on public domain DVD operator DVDs, my archive copy derived from the Brentwood "Blood Thirst" four-film-set which in turn was done off a VHS master.

By the way, the American VHS artwork would prove useful for Rule 34 enthusiasts with that just-barely-obscured nude female vampire, one that can be achieved with surprisingly little effort...

My Grade: D [Bad]
