This is a wonderfully fun movie created by a production company of bold film students. Story has it these young filmmakers didn't wait for Hollywood to call. They got together and created Hollywood right in their own backyards.
Avenging Disco Vampires tells the story of 2 crooks who find themselves unwittingly a part of the rumble between two rival vampire gangs. To take this film seriously would be a mistake. It is intentionally campy and marinates happily in its low-budget splendor. Albeit a tad long, it has enough entertainment and talent to keep you interested. Highlights include Carus Waggoner's portrayal of Free Love - the leader of the gang called the Bloods; an exploding, roller-skating vampire named Hott Wheelz; and a tribute to disco dance inside of a barn.
Jacob and Frank, the unlikely heroes are played well by the two lead actors and the off-kilter Vampire hunter is mind-bogglingly odd. There are a variety of interesting characters throughout this film and the contrast between the disco vampires and the more Gothic Crypts is well done with lighting, costume and characterization.
Don your bell bottoms and sequins and grab some popcorn!
