What happens when hired killers and vampires collide? Lots of blood, one presumes. Check out a trailer for “God of Vampires”, an indie horror/action movie from Rob Fitz, a former make-up effects man who is making “God of Vampires” his directorial debut. The quality of the trailer is suspect, and it starts off really poorly, but stay with it and it does get progressively better. The trailer has been online since 2006, when the film was originally finished. According to the movie’s official site, the film has just now gotten a distribution deal, though no details have been released so far. Professional killer Frank Ng has been contracted to murder a Chinese crime lord. The routine hit goes awry when Frank discovers his mark is actually a vampire. Suddenly, the tables have turned. The hunter has become the hunted. This is no ordinary vampire of myths and legends, however.

God of Vampires, from director Rob Fitz, is an independent production with style. One trailer begins with nothing but non-stop shooting for ten to twelve seconds, while Buddhist monks hum ominiously. In this second trailer below there is even more gun play as the characters battle a Chinese crime lord who is a vampire in human form. The film is available May 4th, but already some details have filtered out including this early concept poster seen left. Have a look at a film that blends gang life, vampiricism, and a battle against a dark lord. All the available details below.
A synopsis for God of Vampires:

Drive-in Horrorshow is an anthology of five gore-filled short films consisting of serial killers, monsters, and torture. At an abandoned drive-in theater, The Projectionist is the dark-humored host who serves as the narrator in-between each film showcased.
As the anthology progresses, each short film switches ambiance based on its plot. The first short presented, “Pig,” dives straight into the blood and chills. Harsh and unrelenting in its tone and mood, a college frat boy endures painful torture while he’s trapped in a small, enclosed bathroom.
After being served with a claustrophobic and tense entrance, the anthology offers the following comedic segment, “The Closet.” A 12 year old child wants his irritating family to go away. The neglected child mistakenly believes the demonic creature in his closet will help get rid of his family. He then starts using each of his family members as food for the creature. Just like the Final Destination series,...

Fango recently spoke to independent filmmaker/makeup FX artist Rob Fitz, who gave us the scoop that he has signed a distribution deal for his years-in-the-making action/horror opus God Of Vampires. Written and directed by Fitz, the movie follows a hitman (Dharma Lim) who takes an assignment that leads him to confront vicious Asian bloodsuckers.
“I’m getting a limited theatrical release through a company called Maxim Media,” Fitz tells Fango. “It’s going to play screens in Arizona and possibly Boston; Maxim owns the worldwide rights to God Of Vampires, and it will then go to DVD, video-on-demand and foreign markets. When I talked to my entertainment attorney, he said it was one of the cleanest contracts he had ever seen for an independent film. I was very cautious in finding distribution for this movie; that’s why it took me so long. I didn’t want to sell it to just anybody,...
