South America has been a hotbed of new indie horror films for several years, and one cannot find a better example of this than in Children of the Night, an Argentinean vampire tale that is innovative, creepy, bloody, and even funny. John W. Allman of The Tampa Tribune called the film “Haunting and wholly original…bites down with bloody glee!”
Artsploitation Films is releasing this wildly entertaining vampire tale on DVD/Blu-ray and VOD October 6th.
Bonus features include a director’s commentary, “making of” featurette, and trailer.
Synopsis:
A secluded colony of child vampires come under attack from vengeful villagers in this darkly funny horror tale by Argentinean filmmaker Ivan Noel. A journalist visits a secluded orphanage where children suffer from an unknown skin disease. She soon learns that they are in fact not children, but vampires aging from 4 to 120 years old who have been bitten at an early age and forever remain in that physical state. They are led and protected by a strange and deeply religious ex-nurse whose destiny in life is to find these “lost souls” and raise them in her sanctuary. Through religious teachings, nocturnal rituals, and the occasional visit to local towns for fresh human blood, she keeps them safe – that is, until a cultish band of men from a nearby village plot to destroy the refuge. Now the children, headed by the 90-year-old grandson of Count Dracula, must defend their way of life.
