Vamperifica (2012)
gay vampire?

I think this is a great new take on vampire films much the same way as blacula turned the genre into black exploitation cinema, Vamperifica could be a drag queen horror show even if the character didn't quite explicitly come out of the closet. You just know he's gay in his voice and manners. But the lead character is a lovable queer and I think this film has the potential to be another Rocky Horror Picture show for the trans-gender or goth set.

All the actors were obviously real drama students or professionals and the writing was crisp and funny. The production shows a great potential for future work by the director, writer and many of the actors. I see a lot of horror or independent crap but this was a real standout. I'm sure this film would do well in urban markets and wonder if it got much theatrical or other distribution to date. It would be a shame if it got overlooked.
