Looking for a unique take on the vampire film genre? It's a well traveled road with every incarnation imaginable have been done to death or undeath (pun intended). Finding something that happens to be be infused with new blood (pun intended again) is like discovering that cool little eatery or eclectic shop down a side street off an avenue that corporate America strip mined with soulless franchises. Enough with the metaphors and excessive use of prepositions. Let's talk about The Devil's Gravestone,
I was a big fan of "Daybreakers". I could appreciate all the social undertones. The de-evolution of any one that doesn't feed regularly, the father daughter relationship that was made horribly dysfunctional by vampirism, and the accidental cure for it all. I dug everything, and I'm on board for anything that attempts to make something that's so regularly done, a little thought provoking again.

Director: Bradley Scott Sullivan Writer(s): Bradley Scott Sullivan Starring: Indiana Adams, Kurt Cole, Madi Goff, Travis Scott Newman, Niko Red Star, Emmy Robbin Six young adults have volunteered (as Volunteers of American Generating Goodwill) to build a new campsite for under-privileged youth on 100 acres of recently donated land. A quick role call, there is: Vagg team leader Sophia (Emmy Robin), Miranda (Madi Goff), Julie (Indiana Adams), Chris (Niko Red Star), Steve (Jeremy Scott Vandermause) and Danny (Kurt Cole). Of course they are way outside of cell phone reception (something it seems most modern horror films and thrillers must work into their plot nowadays) and a significant distance from any other human contact. This is virgin territory, so they must camp in tents with only the bare necessities. Most importantly, there are hard-fast rules (such no alcohol and no sex) for everyone’s safety; but once the rules begin...

Okay, so the week is off to a shaky start. The studios are up to their usual antics trying to find the next property to remake while making ludicrous casting choices and a movie called The Karate Kid is tops at the box office despite the fact that Jackie Chan teaches the younger Smith Kung Fu instead of Karate. Leave it to the indie filmmakers to inject a much needed dosage of sanity into the mix.
Below you'll find the first artwork and trailer for Bradley Scott Sullivan's new slasher flick I Didn't Come Here to Die starring Emmy Robbin, Niko Red Star, Indiana Adams, and Kurt Cole. Do yourself a favor -- spend just a couple of minutes watching the trailer and cleanse yourself of all the stupidity. Bless your black heart, Mr. Sullivan.
