Drawing Blood

A female vampire kills young women and paints with their blood. She has an assistant who doesn't want to be a vampire, so he has to do what she orders or be turned into a blood sucker. After a few kills, the assistant gets remorse and falls in love with a homeless girl.

What can I say about this movie ? That its pacing is over-slow, that it has some strange sound effects (never a bite sounded so strange) and ambiance (new jazz here I come) and that lights don't seem to be included on the set. It looks like an "auteur" horror movie with all the self-sufficiency inside.

The plot is completely stupid and as you can guess, it's the female vampire who explains how to kill her even if she doesn't have to do it; of course, crosses, light, garlic and sticks don't work.

It's not even a funny lousy movie. Perhaps with some friends and a lot of beers, it can't have its funny sides (to be honest, it's funny during 10 - 15 minutes near the end of the movie). Don't be fooled by the Troma sticker, it's one the bad movie they present.

A vampire's's henchman wants to call her after falling in love with a five-dollar hooker in this extremely low-budget horror-comedy. I can't explain all the positive comments on this movie. I'll chalk it up to mass hallucination, but it's disconcerting none the less. The one redeeming factor (and this is me being extremely generous here) might be the Grandfather who's the only semi-likable character in this whole mess. Don't waste your money, or time. In fact here's a word of advice, If Troma puts it out on DVD, but does NOT make it themselves, in all likelihood it's crap.

Troma DVD Extras:Commentary with Omar and Kirk; second commentary with cast and crew deleted scenes; bloopers; troma interactivity; radiation march; Clip from "Terror Firmer"; Theatrical trailer ;Trailers for "the Rowdy Girls", "Teenage Catgirls in Heat", "Cannible: The Musical", and "Toxic Avenger 4"

My Grade: D

This movie got it all... bad acting, music, costumes and specialeffects but this is what makes this movie worth seeing. This Troma-release is not one of their best but still better than Tromeo and Juliet! (I think that T&J sucks!) :) The good scenes in this movie all includes prostitutes, blood and vampires!

This movie rocks!It has it all,full frontal nudity,blood,gore,horny old people,and of course vampires.The plot is an aspiring young artist named edmund meets another artist named diana.He falls in love with her and she reveals to him that she is a vampire.She proves this by plunging a butcher knife into her gut and making the wound instantly disappear.she tells him she wants to be together for eternity and tries to bite him.He says he likes being mortal and makes a deal with her.If he supplies her with models to paint (After she drinks their blood) using their blood to paint their corpses for an upcoming art show she has and she wont kill him.Somewhere along the line edmund goes crazy and falls in love with one of diana's would be victims.And he tries to save her,from there on the shit just hits the fan.Throw in some homeless prostitutes, a horny old guy, a friend of edmunds who wants to be a vampire,a lot of violence and blood and a whole slew of sex scenes and you'v got an awsome troma film!This movie is really funny and I highly reccomend it!

Not since Onur Tukel's HOUSE OF PANCAKES hit TV screens across North Carolina has there been anything like Sergio Lapel's DRAWING BLOOD. If you're lucky enough to catch it at a midnight showing, rest assured: You'll laugh, you'll cry- you'll kiss six bucks good-bye! While the stuntwork won't cause Jackie Chan to lose any sleep, Lapel pushes the no-budget envelope like the true maverick moviemaker he is... though the movie's more than a little uneven (it starts out as a straightforward vampire story, but suddenly veers off into tongue-in-cheek territory). Another learning experience for a budding filmmaker.
