Where to begin? The title is unquestionably the worst thing about this film, but it doesn't get much better. True, it is said to have been made on a budget of a thousand dollars, and it is an order of magnitude superior to 'Snoopy Green's Vampire Movie', but that is less a compliment than an insult.

Actually, the budget cited is probably not realistic, even if the entire cast worked for free. There are several familiar elements in the film: the chase for one, the problem is it is all chase, or nearly all of it. The narration - first person singular is another; a third is the classic misunderstanding in which a totally innocent party gets roped into something by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, mistaken for someone else, or some such. Here though it is not spies, drugs, something illegal or clandestine, but vampires and...

The and...is the strong part of the film, indeed the only strong part; Earth is home not only to Man and vampires but Man, vampires and a third party. The latter two have been engaged in a centuries long hidden war which has now spilled out into the open, well, into the backwoods where "Vampire Chicks..." was filmed. 

Does it end happily? It may if it is remade say ten years from now in an urban setting with both a meaningful budget and a decent script.

The horror genre features stories that aim to elicit fear, suspense, and a sense of dread in its audience. Horror stories often explore themes related to the unknown, the supernatural, and the macabre, and they frequently evoke strong emotional reactions such as anxiety, terror, and unease.

All the myths about vampires are just that. Crosses, holy water, garlic-they do absolutely nothing! The only thing that can kill a vampire has been injected into Quinn, a rough and rugged hillbilly with a chip on his shoulder. Now he is wanted by both vampires and those who want to destroy them. Quinn's only hope of survival is Karel, a renegade vampire warrior who does the unthinkable--she falls in love with him.
