What We Do In The Shadows
classified 15Please note: This was screened in Dec 2014
The wicked brains behind Flight of The Conchords and Eagle vs. Shark - Jemaine Clement and Taikia Waititi - are putting the Fang in Fangtastic with this rollicking, desperately funny mockumentary about vampires sharing a house in New Zealand. Think ‘Monty Python’ meets ‘Spinal Tap’ in a film that’s serving up the perfect antidote to those emotionally troubled vampires from a certain teenage franchise. We follow Viago, Deacon and Vladislav as they hunt the streets looking for sustenance, get into arguments with a pack of werewolves and bicker about whose turn it is to do the dishes. The trio find it difficult to adapt to life in the early 21st century due to their necessary seclusion and when a human being enters their lives, tensions arise, disrupting the order in Casa Vampira.
Based on a 2006 short film of the same name What We Do In the Shadows took this year’s Sundance film festival by storm. Get ready to sink your fangs into one this year’s most hilariously pleasurable delights!
