After being coerced into taking an old book at a yard sale, they find the book of rituals is real. When actual vampires arrive, the ancient teens freak out. The rest of the movie revolves around the spirit of a vampire hunter possessing the smart girl, and the group whining about their miserable lives.
This is one of those movies where you'll laugh hysterically through the first half, but then the laughs wind down and you'll get bored. The vampires are the white grease paint type and they spend most of their time hissing. And yes, they do look like the guy on the cover.
We spent some time debating whether the actors were supposed to be teenagers or college students. They appear to be older than either, but eventually we settled on them being high school students due to the following:
- they live with their parents
- they need to steal alcohol from their parents rather than buy it
- a bell rings to signal the start of class (something that does not happen in college)
- they need an explanation as to why they are late to class (again, not in college)
- they keep bitching that they wish they didn't have to live in this town (if you're over 18 you can move)
Things that made us laugh:
- the vampire make up makes them look like Pandas
- the goth mobile is a large white Bronco (or similar looking vehicle)
- excessive use of a fog machine
- distracting dubbing
- bad dialogue
- there are three girls - two have large fake boobs and the third one is smart
- make up sometimes wears off the vampires faces, necks and bald heads
- the line, "Prepare my bride" apparently means remove her clothes since that's all the minions did
Very, very low budget and it shows.
