Plot

A young female stripper who's dying from cancer decides to take up an offer to become a vampire. Her boyfriend decides joining her was better than living without her. She quickly discovers that it's impossible to be a vampire with a conscious.

Pros

Breasts and fake blood. If you like seeing women walking around topless or you enjoy watching gallons of fake blood squirting everywhere, this movie has many scenes that will entertain you. There is a lesson in morality included but if you're obsessed with breasts and blood you'll miss it.

Cons

The script; even though you will likely recognize a number of the actors in this film, they had very little to work with. With a little more effort and money, this storyline really could have worked.

Extras

Recommendation

This isn't the worst vampire movie ever made but it's in the bottom half of the list. I do have to give kudos to marketing department Starz Home Entertainment; they do know how to put a DVD package together. The cover is an eye catcher and the comparison of this film with Near Dark and Requiem for a Dream caught my eye. Having said that, the person that made this comparison should be checked into rehab.
