| Summary: |
The story of several vampires in the 90's who are still faced with massive prejudices due to
their extravagant lifestyle and genetically transmitted attributes like longer canine teeth. For example: they are accused of
feeding on the blood of their fellow citizens through selective neck-bites. |
Even after their relocation to the idyllic forest of Odenwald, difficulties with their neighbours, the Sonthofs (Reinhard Maiwald & Christel Niederstenschee), immediately arise. As legal objections seem to have no effect, and eventually their dog vanishes, the Sonthofs decide to use more severe methods.

short review: This is a very short shortfilm (with a running time of only 15 minutes you might say so), but nevertheless the film-crew managed to tell a complete and highly entertaining story, embedded in beautiful and goth-like surroundings. If you liked the goth-culture in Razor Blade Smile, you'll love this film.  |
