At Dawn They Sleep

June 28, 2005

Rated: NR Runtime: 80 min Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

At Dawn They Sleep takes a hard-hitting look at what happens to drug dealers who mess around with trashy women and wake up as vampires. I don’t think this is based on a true story, but it should be.

At Dawn They Sleep Stephen and Ian are a couple of drug pushers who have zero tolerance for incompetance. If a deal goes bad, they pull their guns out and start shooting. These guys hook up with a couple of babes, but the babes turn out to be Angels. (They have the wings to prove it.) After a wild night of passion, the Angels infect Stephen and Ian with a disease and they become vampires.

Stephen and Ian are charged with destroying the human race so the Angels can take over the world. After that there was a lot of talk about God and Demons and war, but I really didn’t pay attention. Why? Because these vampires were kicking everyone’s butts! They crashed cars into other cars, and threw televisions on the ground, and crashed into a house. But best of all, they carried guns and actually shot at non-vampires. How awesome is that? If they don’t kill you with bullets, they’ll kill you by sucking your blood out of your neck!

Anyway, it was a very fun but disposable movie, and I had a good time watching it. However, I’ve got to warn you: At Dawn They Sleep looks and sounds like it was shot on a camcorder. And it probably was. But I’m giving it four stars because not only is this an ambitious production on a low budget, it contains guns, blood & gore, car crashes, T&A and even a few laughs.

There’s something for every guy to like in this movie. Don’t miss it!
