THE VAMPIRE KING is a pretty terrible British indie horror flick about a girl being stalked by the vampires she once slayed. It's cheap and indifferent, with rock-bottom production values precluding any kind of fun or sense of professionalism. As a film, it's heavy on plot and light on actual vampirism; the kind of film which there's nothing very bad to say about it, but nothing good either.

The star of the film wrote and directed it.... Apparently this is the Director's Cut. Which apparently means that he edited it too. Unfortunately, it seems as though this was several jobs too many. It gets two stars for the premise which although not unique, is different enough to be interesting. However, the dialogue is hackneyed, the lead is not interesting or charismatic enough to carry the story, the pacing is slow, far too slow, the acting flat and uninspired, and the action dull and quite derivative. The idea had potential, but the execution is dreadful. A shame.
