Synopsis: Charley Brewster and his friends, "Evil" Ed and Amy are a part of a high school study abroad class in Romania. Charley soon discovers that his sexy teacher, Gerri Dandridge, is in fact a vampire. He enlists the aid of internationally known vampire hunter, Peter Vincent, to give Gerri a more permanent version of death.
The Bad: This movie isn't a sequel, it's a re-imagining. Even the main characters have the same name (though some are spelled differently). The hero is Charley Brewster. His best friend is Evil Ed. His lover interest is Amy. The vampire is Gerri Dandridge. Finally the "supernatural expert" is Peter Vincent. And speaking of Peter Vincent, I was fine with the Criss Angel stage magician version played by David Tennant, but this version just bugged the Hell out of me. The asshole, ghost-hunter reality TV isn't cool man.
Final Thoughts: I regret watching this. I like bad vampire flicks, sequels, remakes, and re-imaginings. This one didn't do it for me though.
In Your Game:
+Timothy Brannan has several write-ups of Elizabeth over at The Other Side in his Character section. However, I didn't see a Cinematic Uniystem version so I've done one of my own. Instead of going with a quicksheet, I did a full big bad write-up.
