Featured reviews
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 is a good kids film, it never pretends to be anything more then that, and it does it well, limiting violence and language and showing that teamwork, friendship, and community, is all that stands in the way of those who bring trouble in their wake.
Forget the reviews pushing political views, they're seeing what they're predisposed to seeing when they look in a mirror.
Meanwhile, the vampires saw no reflections, with the Effects shots done nicely, and the Cinematography done beautifully, Audio done equally as well.
The plot is not original but, the execution is decent. The kids performances are pretty good. The humour is at times cringe but, there are some moments when you might find yourself laughing out loud.
There is clearly some symbolism in place with the Vampires. They represent the rich who take advantage of the poor in the real world. There is a message that is being sent throughout the film in regards to this.
The kids also, have their own small storylines going on and even though it doesn't get too deep it tries to also, send a message to the viewers of good and bad.
If you don't take it too seriously and just try to watch it casually it's a fun movie.

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.
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.
