If you are a fan of this band, this is a must have DVD, if you are looking for Oscar award winning material you are in the wrong place. I liked the ‘vampy’ style, yes I did mean that. The obviously fake blood, the heavy thumping bass, and the really interesting ‘special’ effects makes for a great 2 hours of fun. This is not a movie, and yet it is not a concert, I am not sure how you would ‘pigeon hole’ this one. It sure is fun tho.
The concept behind this movie is a version of American Idol, several bands are trying to win a recording contract. The big difference with this contest is that all of the bands are Goth. It turns out that the sponsor of the event, the ‘less than above board’ Gotham Records are a bunch of blood sucking vampires, one by one they are literally eliminating the contestants.
Oscar winner it may not be, but fun romp it certainly is. Gina DeVettori and Kristen Zaik offer up a fine performance as the Management Company. If you are looking for some ‘Goth’ exposure, you can get it from MVD.

I am the screenwriter for GOTHIC VAMPIRES FROM HELL. I liked your review. It was honest and to the point. I admire when people understand these movies aren’t made for tons of money and should just be enjoyed. NOT taken too seriously. They are entertainment. Good or bad, that is the viewers determination. Nice review!

Hi Jeremiah, it is not often that we get a ‘primary source’. I vote we do an interview!
I’d love to!
Yes well done to th writer
From What I have heard Dave Sterling(producer) had a lot of experience with shooting music video clips earlier on in his career, I think this combined really well with what the directors where doing to make a really cool little film.
I’m an independent film producer, although I did not make this particular film. I was IN the film however- ‘Jasmine’- and I appreciate the good review as well! It was an extremely fun film to make, and we never took it too seriously! I personally have over 15 pages to my name that come up in google, and most of the mentions are all from this film.. it’s what my boyfriend calls ‘crappe film’- people love it for what it is!
