Better than what movie books would have one believe, 18 January 2005
8/10
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

Hey now, I picked this up on DVD, a film that I'd been lusting after for some time but had never been able to find it, and now, well, I've seen it and I have to say it's far better than what my movie books say. A young girl (the daughter of a gangster) is living at a church and singing in the choir, proof that good triumphs over evil. Along comes a mysterious letter that says her father the gangster is dying, and to please come. So she packs a bag and sets out to see him one last time. Things don't turn out quite like she expected. Little did she know she was wandering into vampire country. There's a truly creepy little band of vampire children, dressed in bright colors and gypsy & pirate outfits like they were in some hellish version of Peter Pan. There's nasty things that live in the woods, mutated humans that are out for the flesh and blood of whomever wanders nearby. And of course there's Lemora, who is the vampire queen, I guess. A twist ending to this too, one that was quite a surprise to me. This is beautifully filmed and quite colorful given the subject matter. I was very pleased to finally be able to see this and I'd recommend it to any vampire fan.
