Vampires vs. the Bronx

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.

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"

It gets better midway through but doesn't really go anywhere. I thought it was going to be a fun film like attack the block but definetly nothing alike. Had a lot of potential but didn't live up to much. Watch if you want something to eat to or browse your phone throughout.

Well, I stumbled upon this 2020 movie on Netflix and of course had to sit down to watch it, given it had vampires in it and seemed like a horror comedy.

And I must say that "Vampires vs. the Bronx", while not being a sound work of genius like "Shaun of the Dead" or "Lesbian Vampire Killers", definitely turned out to be entertaining, albeit a bit too generic. So writer and director Osmany Rodriguez definitely managed to churn out something well-worth watching.

The storyline in "Vampires vs. the Bronx" is pretty straight forward; a nest of vampires take up residency in the Bronx and seek to overthrow the neighborhood and take control of the humans. But a small group of teenagers, that no one believes in, take up the stand against the immortal undead bloodsuckers.

It should be said that the special effects in "Vampires vs. the Bronx" were good, and they definitely brought a great deal of enjoyment to the overall feel of the movie. And I did like the design of the vampires, as they were kept sort of a mixture of bestial and the traditional charming, romantic archetypes.

As for the acting in the movie, well I weren't really familiar with anyone on the cast list, so that was definitely a plus for me, as I enjoy watching unfamiliar talents on the screen. And I will say that the actors and actresses in the movie were definitely putting on good performances; not award-winning material, but good enough.

"Vampires vs. the Bronx" is definitely a movie well-worth sitting down to watch. It is a horror comedy that aims towards both a younger and mature audience alike, so there is a little bit of something for almost everyone in the audience.

There were some nice references to the likes of the "Blade" movies and Bram Stoker to be seen in the movie as well.

I am rating "Vampires vs. the Bronx" a six out of ten stars. If you enjoy vampire movies with a bit of fun in it, then you should take the time to sit down and watch this particular movie. While it hardly will become a vampire classic, it is definitely a movie worthy of a place in the vampire collection.

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!
