Vampire Blvd. (2004)

How bad is it? It had no script. Or budget. Or reason for existing.
Should you see it? No. On paper, it looks like it might work, but on film...

Directed by and starring Scott Shaw, with cinematography by Donald G. Jackson (and 3 others), this film was shot "organically" without a script, just letting things develop and trying to piece it together. Shaw and Jackson have done this several times, never successfully - "Lingerie Kickboxer" being so bad I briefly called it the worst film I'd seen - and this one got my interest for being blaxploitation and a vampire film and also for having Robert Z'Dar, Joe Estevez and Jim Kelly. The plot has a Hong Kong actress pursued by vampires and helped by private investigators. It relies heavily on bad music and meaningless images. Watch at your own risk.
