The Plot…

Eight vampire overlords meet at a remote farmhouse for their semi-centennial meeting.  Henry, The Duke, Peter Boniface, Thomas, Angel, Chen and Alice arrive first.  Because one of them has violated rules that put all vampires at risk, he/she will be executed.

Vanessa arrives with a human named Sebastian.  He has no idea that Vanessa is a vampire.  The overlords plan to either turn Sebastian into a vampire or feed on him.  What they don’t realize is four army squadrons have surrounded the farmhouse.  The soldiers know that a vampire is there — they don’t realize that there are seven.  The soldiers plan to kill the undead bloodsuckers.  Perhaps they should have brought more men.

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

Eat Locals is Jason Flemyng’s directorial debut.

Eat Locals has a nice mix of humor and action.  It’s a fun ride.
