As movie titles go, Lesbian Vampire Killers is pure genius.

The film is, of course, a spoof. It’s a British horror comedy written by Paul Hupfield and Stewart Williams and is due in cinemas from March 20th 2009.

Don’t expect too much in the way of complex plot. The official website summarises the story in a six page mini-comic. To summarise the summary of the summary:

Two no hopers… one cursed village… a bus full of foreign students… and an army of solacious lesbian vampires… can the boys put their fear aside to become… Lesbian Vampire Killers?

The film stars Mathew Horne and James Corden as the no-hopers with Paul McGann as the vicar.

Shooting has started on a new vampire musical comedy Suck. The film, written directed by and starring Rob Stefaniuk, concerns a wannabe rock group ironically called “The Winners”. The band will do “anything” to become famous – cue the vampires!

Alice Cooper plays a bartender and Iggy Pop a music producer. Moby also appears as the lead singer of another band.

The film stars Malcolm McDowell as a vampire hunter – who’s afraid of the dark.

It could be fun, but any time I see a movie written, directed by and starring the same person it rings alarm bells.

Shock Till You Drop is reporting that a sequel to the movie 30 Days of Night is in the offing. Apparently this will feature character Stella Oleson from the first film hunting down and seeking revenge on the vampires.

Personally I’m a lot less enthusiastic about this than some people. As I said in my review of the first movie, it was “rather a waste of what could have been a very tense and claustrophobic situation”. By taking the character to the vampires even that situation will presumably be lost, leaving nothing much left other than a run of the mill vampire movie with snow.

Still, I’m open to being proved wrong!
