Typical DeCoteau low budget movie that "Works" on two levels. First, it's a teen vampire flick set in Southern California (as in the Buffy oevure). Second, it's an excuse to have attractive males run around in designer boxer/briefs. It probably works better on level two. However, the humor and bonding between the two main characters actually has some depth, and was a pleasant surprise. For lovers of really good "cheese" - just like DeCoteau's new modern camp masterpiece "Voodoo Academy" (the DVD edition). Relax, suspend your critical faculties, and enjoy!
