Slayers (2022)
5/10
The truth has Fangs
13 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The production opens by letting us know that vampires and humans have been at war. Famous vampire slayers include Ben Franklin, Joan of Arc, and Billy the Kid. (I didn't see Abraham Lincoln). Hitler was a famous vampire but not Nicolas Cage. The Vampire Illuminati control the world. Elliot Jones (Thomas Jane) has-been TV crime fighter is a modern slayer working out of his RV. A group of Internet influences called the stream team are headed for billionaire's remote house of Steve Rektor (Adam Ambruso) who we know to be a vampire, for a proposal. We quickly realize that Flynn (Kara Hayward) introduced first and our word of reason must be the final girl. Video games is her influence. Steve wants to give the group $15 million to be influencers for his biotech's new vaccine against everything. Flynn thinks something is up as the offer is too generous. She wants out.

This is another human vs. Vampire film. It has been modernized for the computer generation. At one point the vampire hunt is live streamed, but not too well. They missed an opportunity to make a decent film in what seems to be a haste to write and film it. The film was not edited well and camera work could have been better.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
