When a detective looking for his missing daughter arrives – all hell breaks loose in a bloody combustible conclusion.

“Traveling to a secret plastic surgery clinic, a group of friends trying to get cheap-costing results start to grow increasingly more concerned with the shadiness of their hosts, and when they learn that their hosts are bloodthirsty vampires must rely on a policeman racking his captive daughter to save them.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis was a decent enough if somewhat troubling indie effort. What works really nicely here is the main setup involving the ordeal of the friends to get to the shady surgery center and the plight of the father trying to find them. The nature of their trip, coming upon the worker and the duplicitous means that go on while attempting to find the center that masquerades as a normal house with eerie nurses and a doctor with evil intent serves this quite well by generating some unnatural energy about the center. The concurrent investigation into their whereabouts tracking down their journey going through the same motions is a fine storyline that helps to move everything along at a steady pace. After establishing this early setup, the film goes through some highly effective and enjoyably cheesy scenarios within the clinic as the group goes through their surgical desires. As each one starts to suspect something is wrong as they come out of their surgery thinking something isnu0026#39;t right but unable to figure out what, the reveal of their vampiric origins solidifies those issues which signals a series of cheesy, over-the-top battles that feature a solid blend of cheesy confrontations and overall goofy gore effects. With a fun finale that offers some intriguing twists involving charactersu0026#39; motivations and a fun outcome that gives this a frenetic finish, thereu0026#39;s a lot to like with this one. There are some issues here that hold this one down. Among the biggest drawbacks to this one is the sheer idiocy of what the whole operation stands for and whatu0026#39;s supposed to pass for a medical clinic. Given the amount of time we spend here, itu0026#39;s hard not to see this as cloth-sheets hung up in a basement or garage so it makes the constant comments about how shady it all is and all the oblivious remarks regarding the inability to know their hosts are vampires all the more curious. That carries over to the rest of the general effects and presentation here that manages to highlight the microbudget status featured here, while the inability to get passed that feature is the biggest personal preference here to look into which is what brings it down.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, and Brief Nudity.”
