Summary:
Four young actors are invited for an audition at the castle of famous horror film director Yurek. What they don't know: Yurek in fact is
one of the last representatives of the "fang-bearers", a real vampire! The party-fun soon turns to bloody reality as Yurek explains
to his guests that he would like to "drain" them before dawn. That is, unless they manage to send him from the realm of the
undead into a real death. Cross and garlic don't work with this modern-day vampire, but Yurek too has his weak spot, which they
now have to find.

short review:
After the lame beginning, this one turns out to be entertaining. Set in a beautiful,
half-arabian castle, it has it's nice and gory moments. Not really bad, if you get past the first half hour. If they only had
used better actors!
