About this movie

Housemates Viago, Deacon, and Vladislav are three vampires who are trying to get by in modern society; from paying rent and doing housework to trying to get invited into nightclubs, they’re just like anyone else - except they’re immortal and must feast on human blood. When their 8000 year-old roommate Petyr, turns 20-something human hipster Nick, into a vampire, the guys must guide him through his newfound eternal life. In return, they are forced to learn a thing or two about modern society, fashion, technology, and the internet. But it’s the introduction of Nick’s human friend, Stu, that really changes the vampires’ lives and attitudes towards the world around them. When Stu’s life is threatened, the vampires discover that humans are worth fighting for, and that even though a heart may be cold and dead, it can still have feelings.

I really liked this mocumentary but the only reason I'm giving this four stars instead of five is because the humor is a little bit dry and not really "laugh out loud funny" for my taste. A lot of the jokes were smirk worthy, but nothing extremely funny. Basically a movie jam packed full of semi funny dry humor witty jokes. If I were English I'd give this 5 stars. Still a great mocumentary.

Dracula Dead And Loving It is a better parody. People who find this sophomoric drivel amusing are clearly brain dead. Soooooo many stupid vampire cliches. Such a vain attempt to make them seem hip. Sucks the life out of fans of comedy or horror.

I loved the first season of the FX show but did not enjoy this at all. Not much of a story, just a bunch of stuff that happens with a house full of vampires.
