6/10
mediocre
12 September 2018
A monk is murdered and a vampire is suspected. Sherlock Holmes (Matt Frewer) dismisses the supernatural explanation but Dr. Watson (Kenneth Welsh) is unsure. Brother Marstoke reveals a series of murders with accompanying blood scrawled walls and large bat-like demon Desmondo from a faraway mission.

This is missing an exciting twist or an inventive take. Frewer has been more charismatic than this. The church should be a dark gothic setting but it's much too dull for that. It is a TV movie all the way through. This is functional but not much more than that. The Hallmark Channel is using the public domain classic character to do a non-canon mediocre mystery.
