Warning: Spoilers
Two teenagers (Brandon Nadon and Arjay Smith) go to a funeral home one night to visit a cousin. They find the place completely deserted and dark...but then things start rearranging themselves, they discover blood on the floor...and one of the bodies starts moving...

That's all good--but that's only the first half hour. It then turns into a strange and bloody vampirish story. Supposedly they need blood to live...but have no fangs. Also their wounds never heal. And sunlight can kill them. And they can see themselves in mirrors. This movie plays fast and loose with the vampire legend. After a while I wasn't sure WHAT they could do! It's also never explained how they became this way. It's saved by good direction and likable performances by Smith and especially Nardon--but it gets confused and dreary. Not terrible but I was wondering WHAT the point was.
