Caretaker, The

Land Down Under Vampire Goodness

The action and acting are each pretty well done as well as what few special effects they have.

Chilling Vampire Fun from Australia
In a culture filled with sparkling vampires and teen-angst-romance-ridden vamp literature, it's nice to see that horror fans can still find solace in new and unique vampire films. When I first heard about THE CARETAKER and how dark it was, I thought to myself, "Now there's a vamp film that I need to check out!" The fine folks at MVD Visual sent me a copy to review, and I'm proud to announce that they have a sure-fire hit on their hands. THE CARETAKER is an excellent addition to the vampire genre, and it's one that horror fans should snatch up quickly.

THE CARETAKER is a bold and visionary film that gives us a gritty, realistic look at how an epidemic could possibly overtake society. This realism is one aspect that makes the film so appealing, and I am particularly impressed with how filmmaker Tom Conyers manages to pull it off.
