Vampires vs. the Bronx

A trio of teens from Bronx r concerned about their local grocery store shutdown cos of new real estate development. They r forced to protect their neighborhood when they come to know that the new land owners are a bunch of vampires responsible for the invasion of their locality and murder of their godfather. Comparisons to Attack The Block, Fright Night and Lost Boys will continue to pop up in reviews but this one aint no copy cat. Coincidentally i was on a Dracula/Vampire movie marathon and aft almost revisiting all the Dracula films n gotten tired by this genre, i somehow enjoyed this. The vampire effects r cool, ther r few scary moments n some good acting by the kids. Good to see a hot vampire chick. They shud have focused a bit more on atmosphere n added more kills.

This movie is fun and short and i think it deserves a watch. but it isn't great yes, it took it's time to build up the story and the characters in the first half in pretty well way and the last 30 minutes or so was just way too fast for what they were building up to and made the movie at the end: meh it was fun... "forgotten"

Vampires vs. The Bronx was a cute dare I say, family movie. I don't get the comparisons to The Lost Boys at all. It's a campy decent movie with good young actors, that used a real life issue as it's foundation. Gentrification and re-Genetrification is a serious subject, that has invaded inner cities forever. I think, the use of Vampirism and "taking over" of neighborhoods (that are primarily inhabited by people of color) was a unique take. Kudos to the young brothers, who did a good job imo. Check it out, it's definitely not the worst way to spend 1.45 hours!

We threw this on kind of randomly without any expectations. It was fine. It was relatively entertaining, campy, and cute. Very easily could have just been a kids movie if you took out the cursing and blood.

The gentrification theme/metaphor is probably why the rotten tomatoes score is so high, so don't let that make you think this movie will be great. Not very subtle, but whatever.

If you're looking for a comedy, I'd pick something else; has a couple funny parts, but more "ha" moments than actual laughing. If you're looking for a horror, I'd definitely pick something else. If you just want a community coming together kids action/adventure movie that you can put on and half pay attention to, this fits right into that.

Probably safe for older kids to watch if you don't mind a little bit of cursing.

Give the racism comments a rest please, what's up with people.

Enjoy it for what it is, a fun, lighthearted film about vampires.

It's not to be taken serious, which is obvious.

Come on people, chill out.
