Summary: A Vampire Film Worth Watching!
Review: Ok... the title definitely got my attention. Do they realize "Shower of Blood" acronym is S.O.B.!!!! That's great. This movie has some unique twists on a tired plot- dumb kids in the woods or abandoned house... duh, don't go in there. But thankfully they do and we got ourselves a movie.

The acting isn't too bad for what are clearly up and coming thespians. They were probably cast more on their looks than anything. They are hot, both the guys and girls. For the faint at heart, there is some "R" rated nudity throughout, but it's not too gratuitous. I think it works well with the story line and I think thru lines on most of the characters were well done and carried thru nicely.

The on set blood gags and digital visual effects were amazing. I'm really impressed (and rarely am I). On this alone I would recommend the film, but there is more. The camera work and lighting seems to be well thought out and very well done. There are no typical errors or mistakes that you get with most low budget movies. Producers and director seem to have known what they were doing.

The score and soundtrack is way cool. Whoever supervised this is in tune with the street. And the composer of the score in a word- Genius.

I hope they consider doing a Shower of Blood II with a larger budget, that'd be cool and certainly worth it.

To the point, I definitely recommend this movie to all horror buffs, and even those who like comedies, because it is certainly satirical enough that I laughed throughout as I'm certain producers intended. Make a point to see this movie!

Curious to know if these filmmakers have any other work out there? Anyone know, please post.
