This is one of the few horror comedies that made me laugh out loud multiple times. It's not perfect--sometimes it's a bit too cute for its own good. It's not a scary movie, either--more of a gory action flick. It IS a lot of fun, though. I did not expect what I got from this, at all, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Hoping there will be a sequel based on the end credit tease.

Quick plot synopsis: a research crew finds a boat with a vampire on it and decides to study it. Lead characters Max and Del are brought on board to help in this endeavor. Why? It's not really clear, or logical. They bring aboard Sarra for no reason, and it turns out there's something special about her that interests the vampire--but don't worry about that, because it comes up once and never seems to matter ever again. Max and Sarra fall in love immediately, for reasons that are not clear, involving far too much exposition so that it can be crammed into 10 minutes instead of developed throughout the movie. But the vampire abducts Sarra, so Max and Del decide to get her back.

The script is not the best and the plot is pretty well-worn. There are some wonderfully campy characters on board the ship, and they have some fun with action conventions. This won't win any awards, but as I said--it's a really good time.

I would have given it a 6, but--Carrie Keagan. Automatic +1.

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.

The romance genre features the theme of romantic relationships and emotional connections between characters. These stories focus on the development of love, desire, and intimacy between protagonists, often exploring the challenges, conflicts, and triumphs that arise in their relationships.
