Synopsis

On 17-year-old Kate's last weekend in town, she and her friends plan to spend it together at SpaceCON– the local science fiction convention they attend every year. At the convention Kate meets Paul, a recently turned teen-vampire (who is also dressed as one). But when Kate tries to make a move on him, he accidentally bites her in the neck. Kate and her friends soon discover Paul is not the only vampire at the convention, and it is up to them to stop the vampires and find a way to turn Kate back before it is too late.

insomniac_rod I had the chance to watch this flick during a hot Saturday afternoon in London, in a floating cinema (2013) and I had a good time for two reasons:-The film is directed by a young and smart teenage girl who has seen many vampire movies. -I could ask her a question through a Skype interview. She told me she was influenced by classic vampire movies such as The Lost Boys and mostly Near Dark. That is a plus because clearly she knows her references very well. The gore is minimum but very well done and you can say that she likes blood in her stories.I give it a 5 because it is a naive film oriented for a young audience.Let's keep an eye to this girl, she may do good things for our genre in the near future.
mark_st-2 .. Saw this film at CONvergence the other day and it was the highlight of my weekend. The story is pretty simple: Teenage supermarket employees get bit by rocker vampire, and then arrive at a typical science fiction/fantasy convention ( I'm not going to spoil the rest). The fun of this movie lives in the detailed writing. At first glance it might appear this is typical Twilight type teen romance junk ( and in fact I think those fans might like this as well) but it is actually more in the style of a movie like Scream, in that it ponders the conventions of Vampires, and especially the movies they come from. Fun cameos, a great young cast, a couple good kill scenes (although I could have used a little more blood) make this a fast paced fun film. I would recommend this movie to fans of Troma to Twilight and I can't say that about many films.
mblackman-2 I wasn't expecting much and found myself captivated...give it a chance. It's a group of young people poking fun at the whole vampire craze going on right now....very tongue in cheek. It's a fun little jaunt through the more intelligent teenager's perspective. The director is young, modest and hopeful. The cast is engaging and very likable. Think an independent version of scary movie, but a lot smarter and more subtle. The director has a raw, organic talent that eschews the traditional training from film school. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of her work as she matures. Some day, those who've worked with her will be look back on the experience fondly.
foxonmovies I am a bit torn as to how to review this movie. The reason being, I discovered when I watched it at South by South West this year that it was made by a girl still in high-school. I think it was Robert Altman who said "anyone who even completes a move should win an award." Being a filmmaker, I agree with Altman. With that said, the young filmmaker deserves an award for getting her feature made. On the other hand, the film that she completed does not deserve an award. In fact after having sat through it I wondered why it was even playing at a major festival. I am still wondering that. The movie which is about a teen girl who is bitten by a vampire at a comic convention, reminded me too much of the 1992 film version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It appeared to me that there was no effort to cast any professional actors as the acting was amateurish throughout. Like most (maybe all) ultra-low budget Indies, there was no effort at set design. The movie looked like what it was, a low budget movie created by high school students. Seeing as it was made by a high school student I don't want to be too harsh, but in all fairness if this movie were made by a thirty year old I can't think of anyone who would consider it anything but rubbish.
