“Well, I stumbled upon this 2020 movie on Netflix and of course had to sit down to watch it, given it had vampires in it and seemed like a horror comedy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd I must say that u0026quot;Vampires vs. the Bronxu0026quot;, while not being a sound work of genius like u0026quot;Shaun of the Deadu0026quot; or u0026quot;Lesbian Vampire Killersu0026quot;, definitely turned out to be entertaining, albeit a bit too generic. So writer and director Osmany Rodriguez definitely managed to churn out something well-worth watching.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe storyline in u0026quot;Vampires vs. the Bronxu0026quot; is pretty straight forward; a nest of vampires take up residency in the Bronx and seek to overthrow the neighborhood and take control of the humans. But a small group of teenagers, that no one believes in, take up the stand against the immortal undead bloodsuckers.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt should be said that the special effects in u0026quot;Vampires vs. the Bronxu0026quot; were good, and they definitely brought a great deal of enjoyment to the overall feel of the movie. And I did like the design of the vampires, as they were kept sort of a mixture of bestial and the traditional charming, romantic archetypes.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAs for the acting in the movie, well I werenu0026#39;t really familiar with anyone on the cast list, so that was definitely a plus for me, as I enjoy watching unfamiliar talents on the screen. And I will say that the actors and actresses in the movie were definitely putting on good performances; not award-winning material, but good enough.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Vampires vs. the Bronxu0026quot; is definitely a movie well-worth sitting down to watch. It is a horror comedy that aims towards both a younger and mature audience alike, so there is a little bit of something for almost everyone in the audience.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere were some nice references to the likes of the u0026quot;Bladeu0026quot; movies and Bram Stoker to be seen in the movie as well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI am rating u0026quot;Vampires vs. the Bronxu0026quot; a six out of ten stars. If you enjoy vampire movies with a bit of fun in it, then you should take the time to sit down and watch this particular movie. While it hardly will become a vampire classic, it is definitely a movie worthy of a place in the vampire collection.”
